For a Barbarian it feels like a new difficulty, not a new act. I've upped my resistances to over 600 (from 200), health nearing 40k(from 29k), damage reduction by 73%(from 68), and DPS almost 12k(from 8). Still not enough after farming two days of Act 1 Inferno and Auction House shenanigans.
I'm all for a challenge, but I have no desire to farm Act 1 Inferno or Act 4 hell from this point on. I completely expected this kind of difficulty, especially after the game only being out for almost two weeks, but the gameplay is not compelling enough to keep me entertained.
I want to point fingers at the skill system, as I find being limited to six skills so constrictive when in Inferno you've got to designate a good amount to defense.
Anyhow, the Jury's still out and my original post was more of a goofy "holy cow this is hard" statement. I'll be sure to give it more time and I'm thinking grouping up with some range DPS will help.

Not there yet, but I've heard that each act in inferno is an exponential increase over the last where as gear scales linearly between the acts. Not sure how well things will go over in inferno with the way they step up the mobs in the acts.
