^ Not really Siberys. The amazon and sorceress were part of all female clans that didn't accept men or teach them their ways. Diablo may allow us to play the male sorcerers of D1 and the female sorceresses of D2, but they would have different spells and spell systems. The amazon and barbarian are quite different as well. The amazons have a greek-phalanx type of combat and the barbarians have a teuton-berserker style of combat. I think there is a huge difference, especially in their magic. The amazon is empowered with greek-like magic, able to throw thunder bolts as though she were Zeus.
Since Blizzard announced that there will
only be 5 classes to choose from
and both male and female versions of each, they will likely not use sorceresses, amazons, or rogues. I think they will come up with a new type of spell-casting class that uses fire, ice, and lightning. They may bring back the assassin class and give it some ranged style of combat. Maybe we will get to see the sorceress and amazon as mercs in the game.
Them making it so that we get to play as both male and female versions of the characters does take away from the lore of the game. We won't get to experience being one of the Sisters of the Sightless Eye, but it won't effect the gameplay much.
Oh, and I didn't like that they took out the potion system. What's a dungeon crawl without potions?
