It looks interesting... mostly because it's new, has pretty graphics, and it's a throwback to Diablo nostalgia.
The gameplay looks unfortunately too much like D2: too much AoE and mowing through non-threatening mobs. I found it somewhat amusing how the narrator of the gameplay video would talk about certain mobs dishing out tons of damage, yet as he fought them, his health never dropped below 80%. I can deal with AoE centric fights as long as there's some danger... hopefully they just nerfed mob damage for the demo video to avoid any embarrassing deaths.
Let's hope there's some cool music similar to D1's Tristram music.
