wow...im SCARING me! lol...i know ive posted several times...i..but i cant help it because 1.) im obsessed with D3 right now...and 2.) i keep watching the videos over and over again...come to find out the dungeons are dark and epic, yet have a beatiful shiny finish to them...i think toning down or taking out the green glow that overcast many areas in the dungeon would make a world of difference among peoples opinions. I can understand that part of it. That and some of the armor lol.
the outside world actually has a nice feel cause at times (raining , dark area, boss battle, and so on, it has a gloomy effect by having muddy lookinig colors.
Yeah I'm starting to come around to the new graphics after seeing a lot of people try to compare it to what it "should" look like.
I would be happy if it was a little darker, and had that gothic/evil feel to it... I do hope there is a return to the truly horrific feel of Diablo one (dead body's on pike, corpses missing limbs, random entrails and blood). But if it stays the way it is, I am not going to care much, it does feel like it's own game, as opposed to WOW which a lot of people are trying to compare its look to.

That's just Nostalgia feeling believe me, only 20% or even less of the places in both D1 and D2 looked like that, but Nostalgia is toying with your memeories guys, Diablo was never a dead body every five feet, that's just a fake feeling.
Places that had that were unique and not too common like you make it sound.
-The Butcher Room ( one room on a whole floor )
-The Harem on Lut Gohlen
-The Catacombs in Lut Gohlen
there are few more location but that's all, other than that 80% of the game was just dusty dungeons D1 and vast open fields in D2 like those.
Short, there were corpses and blood when it was needed and justified, other wise it was normal most of the time.

That's called ambient light, simple as that, that effect can be found in countless 3D games.
There is nothing NEON about this shot, nothing at all, it looks pretty damn fine to me :rolleyes:
There is no way Diablo 3 is going to look like D1 or D2 for many reasons, and also, many people don't want Diablo 2.5

I think part of the reason things got so out of hand was because everyone loves to join in on the frenzy.
I challenge most of you to go back and play through D1 and D2 again and then come back to make an educated decision.
Whatever Blizzard does though i'll be happy, I'm just glad its on the way (unless they go crazy and do p2p)
