Gender Equity

#0 by Grug @ 21:04:01 01-Nov-2010 Original Post
At Blizzcon QnA, I was the guy who asked about the backstories of each class being identical for both genders. The reply I got was kind of irreverent. And I'm wondering why the barbarian is the only class that has a separate backstory for each gender. Anyone else think there should be more to the male wizard/female monk etc than just a clone of the other gender?

There were talks shortly after BlizzCon about this and I believe the idea to give the male barbarian a unique story as compared to the female gender is now in question. It's very likely to be simplified, the male barbarian would not be unique, and would no longer be spelled out as the barbarian from Diablo II.
