Personally I am finding these class videos to be kind of underwhelming and just teasing further rather than explaining to flesh stuff out. I want to see how a spellslinger would heal, not tell me they shoot bullets at people! How does the stuff look! Is it channeled? Instant cast? What is the innate class ability? Gimmie a bone!
I really liked their videos prior to the class videos such as housing and the silly redacted stuff. I just find myself saying "Show me the skills" when I see these videos in vain. Then I stare at the class screen where they share 2-4 abilities a class can "possibly" use depending on spec which makes me think they certainly have a lot of stuff in the air still I suppose.

Kryton, I recommend checkin out the hour-long-plus Livestream's for each class, I didn't find the Warrior's to be that useful but I don't have "tank" eyes.
The Esper videos (it's in two parts) on the other hand were very enlightening. Lots of mechanics were shown and loosely explained.
That said I was disappointed in this particular Devspeak, and I'm hoping the Livestream fixes that.
Also before we get down on the videos, I can't remember the last game that showed off this much this early. A lot of what they have been showing us would be NDA material this early, showing official game play footage or classes and mechanics with Dev. explanations is not a common thing historically in the game industry, at least with 6 months or so to go.

If you have not watched the live streams for each class, then that is where the info is you are looking for. These are meant just to show the birds eye view of the class.
