I think they will add a 9th class eventually

Just rambling but I think the character select screen looks weird without the Barb right in the middle, and now we have 5 vs 3 for male/female classes. Way too early predictions for another new class? I'm thinking something that specializes in poison, since we don't have much of that already. I like that the Warlock has plenty of skills that use Magic damage, which was also a bit underused.

Judging from the announcement video for RotW, it does seem like we will be getting more content in the future, so I'm just spitballing. Hell, we could even actually see a new act.

I hope you're right, I think developing D2 is the right move. I said it on the ROTW thread and I think with D4 and DImm being a flop you'd wonder if they're finally starting to see the light. Thing is we have a poisonmancer already. Why not backport the Rogue into D2? I think it's a good halfway between the Amazon and Assassin, and it's a homage to D1 and ties into the idea that a Rogue from the Sisterhood fights to get revenge for the fall of their Order. I think your idea is good too if it's executed right
