Chatting with D3 CM Bashiok this afternoon about a cool thing we'll probably be able to announce tomorrow, I asked him which was his favorite character to play right now: Barb, WD, or other.
Bashiok: i always like melee in any game i play, so barb still
Bashiok: "other" may apply too but i won't get in to that :)
Flux: "bashiok confirms there are no other melee chars in d3 but the barbarian"
Flux: *cough*
Bashiok: haha exactly
Bashiok: hrm, how can i backtrack out of that one peacefully...
Bashiok: uh... out of the classes that are in a playable state, the barbarian is my favorite :)
There aren't any big conclusions to draw from this. I just thought it was an interesting tidbit. I left the joke in so you can see that he's not saying there aren't any other melee chars, and he's not saying that barbs can only be played melee, etc. He's just saying that of the current chars, the one that's most fun with his preferred play style is the barb.
You may, however, join me in grinding your teeth that other people are playing Diablo 3 right now, while you're not.
