Judging the game based on the beta is ridiculous, especially bringing up difficulty level when the difficulty is supposed to be brain-dead easy.

Diablo II's Act I normal mode was super easy. Only minor challenge I remember was an optional boss with cold arrows surrounded by rogue archers...and that's because I rarely had thawing pots by then.
So, when you play Beta Diablo 3 Act I normal difficulty and say it's easy, I say: What else is new?
Your opinion is obviously biased...
LoL it takes you 10 to 12 hours to kill the Skel King? LoL! I have him down now in 45 min, start to finish. I think I did 43 min if you want to get technical. You have proven you have NO IDEA what your talking about.
And and Andariel was hard in D2? . . . . when was she hard?

Yeah, I don't know what the guy is going on about. I watched Youtube videos and it wasn't even close to 12 hours to play every single class through to the skeleton king. It was like an hour per class. Also, one of the videos showed the guy dying a few times, for whatever that's worth. This guy was a good gamer, and didn't pay attention, and wound up dead. So it's not like you absolutely cannot fail. It's just that there are 4 levels of difficulty and you're seeing the first hour of the game on the easiest one.
To be fair, you could spend about 2 hours from start to Skelly king if you clear all maps, click all chests, kill all monsters and do a bit of crafting. But 10 to 12 hours??? There is no way, there just isnt more than 2 hours of content in the beta as it stands right now.
And lets be real for 5 minutes. . . if it takes you 10 to 12 hours to complete the entire first act on easy, you probly want to get another game thats more your pace. I would be willing to bet the entire first act wont last longer than 3 hours once its all said and done. . . . until INFERNOOoooOOOooOOOooOOO!!!!!
Dont say the game is easy... If you played any Diablo 2 or d2 with LOD you would know how easy that game was even on the hardest difficulty
people in classic ( d2) would solo Diablo with loaders even on hardcore...
This game will be amazing just wait and see when it comes out. Blizzard knows how to make their games.
e: The game looks amazingly good compared to D2 which had a horrible resolution and not to mention the amazing graphics..
There was nothing dark, horrific or difficult in the first part of act 1 in Diablo 2.
