Diablo III Artisans Revealed in New Video

Revealed today at Gamescom, Diablo III will feature in-game NPC artisans that will be able to craft new items for the player. The blacksmith, the one artisan revealed in the new video, will be able to craft the player weapons and armor based off of recipes found from in-game loot and recipes the artisan has taught himself.
Diablo II featured a similar “crafting” feature that required you to use the Horadric Cube to craft new items, one of which was the legendary cow portal. Taking it a step further, the artisans in Diablo III will be able to level up, learning new and better crafting recipes and upgrading their shop in the process (visually) as the player trains them using salvage collected from loot.
The video does a great job of explaining the new artisans so just take a peek after the break if you want to know it all.
