While you are quite right for monk..it's not true for other classes.. at least.. two last classes I played were barbarian and Wizard..They are using weapon specific animation for certain skills. You can easily try it with simple bash and arcane missile and you will see they are using weapon specific animations for many skills (not for all however)

And .. I am not sure what is your background Avireyn..We have to dealt with animations almost every day. And while D3 has some choppy transition between fast attacks, animations alone are top notch.. Seriously, Blizzard is creating all animations manually ..but they are really awesome. Maybe I have low standards or something. But I shouldn't have. But feel free to point me on their bad animations. If there are any, I would like to see them.

But you cannot judge "animations alone" without looking at the transitions. And as you yourself said: Some of them are choppy.
And that takes away some of their fluidity, which in my book is a huge factor in over-all animation quality.

As I said: The animations are good. Don't ask me to point you to bad animations. I never said there were any. I said they are not stellar. And part of that is that stutter between some animations.
Another part of that is -as you mentioned- the choppy transition between fast attacks specifically. The first instance I noticed them was on my Demon Hunter when she was rapidly firing with Hungering Arrow, which looked a bit like she was tap dancing (since the whole animation plays rapidly, and she moves her feet just a bit too much).

I must say the d3 beta looks very easy and straight forward.. they nerfed and dumbed down this game so most 12 year olds dont have to bother placing wrong skills or building a character wrong since everyone will unlock the same skills and runes at specific lvls... i will miss the old d2 system it was perfect.. why change something that most didnt complain about?.. baaaah in a rpg game you should decide how you wanna build your char, not get auto crap nonsense.. i wonder how long this game will hold in the end...

And to prove me wrong please link to where Blizzard are saying that what you see in Open Beta is a tutorial, and that ones you are trough that the game will be harder and more challenging.

Oh c'mon.. they said it at least hundred times..it's really not that hard to find it.

I did search, came up eampty.
I only found forums and posts by fanboys saying the same as you, but no official post from Blizzard saying that D3 open beta is just an tutorial and that the release will be more challanging.
If you find it, Ill admit my error and Ill buy D3. But I guess you wont, because you got your info from an other fan.

Here, watch this.

They admit that normal is baby mode. I dont want to play a whole freaking game on baby mode before I am actaly aloved to play the game. They should have had normal AND hard mode as an option for thousee who want more challange then tha retard easy mode.

There you go, whole act 1 is a tutorial itself, and the game will get harder in later acts... and even harder on nightmare...harder on hell..... EVEN HARDER on inferno.
