Monk should be Crusader

I don't know about you but in my opinion Diablo 3 should be more Diablo than Diablo 2 if you catch my drift. From Warrior to a split Barb / Paladin to a Barb / Monk as melee just doesn't seem right.

After watching the Dante's Inferno introduction and seeing the main character, who is a crusader, stitch a cross on his bare chest screams hardcore. Diablo 3 should be hardcore.

A religious freak crusader is someone that will travel to Hell and back to slay big D, not some monk. I don't know, but to me the spiritual fighter should have been a crusader. People who loved the warrior and paladin will feel more at home here and this class would have been a score.

I've seen plenty of monk game play and find it incredible, the style of fighting, the speed and overall feel is great - but it's not Diablo. It just isn't.

You can call him a crusader if you want to.
