Changes

The 2009 demo introduced the Monk, who was playable along with the Wizard, Witch Doctor, and Barbarian. The demo was set in Act Two, in the scorching sandy wastes outside of [[Caldeum]]. Players fought through the wastes and several random dungeons, dealing with a wide variety of new monsters on their way to [[Alcarnus]], a ruined, [[Cultist]]-infested city at the end of the demo.

This demo contained numerous quests, but almost no plot or story, with only a few NPCs who spoke only of non-story quests. New characters were level 12, and began the demo just outside the gates of Caldeum, just after they would have received a great deal of story and quest information (in the final game). The ending town of Alcarnus was modified for the demo as well, with much of the town unreachable and no particular focus to the final battle there.

==Demo Preparations==

In April 2009, [[Bashiok]] shared a good amount of information about the preparation for and recording of the 2008 WWI gameplay demo movie. [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/bashiok-on-the-wwi-demo/]
