As seen in the first Diablo III footage, Blizzard is allowing players to choose the gender of their character.
It seems that the people at Blizzard have taken a liking to shying away from Diablo traditions. First, Blizzard upset hardcore fans by changing the art style in Diablo III. Now the lead designer has revealed that the gender issue was a major undertaking for the D3 team.
Personally I don’t have a problem with a gender choice. I usually choose to play a female character because I’m too insecure with my sexuality to stare at a man wearing bear skins for hours on end. Now I can finally branch out to a class other than Amazon, Sorceress or Assassin.
