Last night I had a chance to sit down for 15 minutes of Diablo III multiplayer arena battles. Forty-five minutes later I finally made good on my "just one more round" promise. The wait for this game just got harder.
It's such a simple concept. Three players on each team enter a relatively simple little arena and battle it out until only one team is left standing. In any other game this would be a silly little diversion, but the scope of character customization in Diablo III makes for a multiplayer experience that might never get old.
The massive demo area was swamped with players, and even the special press access line was a lengthy one. I stood in line for a good 15 minutes before getting into a group, which is nothing compared to the hours the Blizzard fans in the other line had to wait. It still felt like an excruciatingly long time.
When I finally got my seat I was presented with a simple character selection screen. Only the Wizard, Witch Doctor, and Barbarian were selectable, leaving my dreams of double crossbow Demon Hunter kills in the dust.
