Woot the Drawgoon is back.

I really love the artworks for D3 so far, especially New Tristram, glad they brought the infamous ravens back.

Oh and that church simply looks... Terrifying. :O

Too bad that when you compare this artwork to the gameplay footage, one could come up with the idea that we're seeing two different games :P

Looks amazing, anyone else think Cain looks incredibly evil? Also notice the silhouette of a female figure in the background, most likely the bird from the trailer.

Looks to me like it says "5000" or "SOOO Faded"

So just to clarify Murderface, you think it's morally justifiable to pretend to have terminal brain cancer in order to gain attention? A one word answer will suffice.

Yes.

NO Deckard, NO Party!

Whispering their hidden song
Then you see what cannot be,
Shadows move where light should be.."

/Edit: Btw, the barbarian looks awesome too - no oversized shoulderpads here ...

Regards, Matt
There's something in here!

Maybe they have. Maybe we just haven't seen it yet.

I will admit that the first thing I thought when I saw the concept art on the site was "why doesn't the game look this awesome?"

city artwork is awesome and so are the classes art, esp the barb
Ranger - Ranged Weapon Mastery (fire a bow or javelins like a machine gun!), Traps (MK style!), Pets (lions, tigers, and bears oh my!) - physical damage based

Demonologist - Bone Spells (Necro style!), Avatar (shapeshift into a demon!), Furies (evil spirits that hang around you, giving party bonuses) - mix of physical damage and magic

LEAP ATTACK!!!!!
PLAGUE OF TOADS!!!!!
SLOW TIME!!!!!

Nice class ideas, or do you have some secret reliable sources?

@ Thread
The text in the picture says : "Sooo Faded ..." (or 5000, but there are definitely three dots there).
And maybe the girl in the background will play an important roll in the storyline?

Nice artwork btw, and I don't understand  what everyone is crying about, that the style is not too dark, and that it's too WoW'ish, but I know that when the game comes out, you'll all love it and play it 24/7 just as Diablo II.

the artwork is not WoWish - absolutely not... At this point I guess that the 3d artists treated the concept artworks more as general guidelines than actual reference:P
Ant yeah - with better textures those artworks could be better translated into 3d world.

I simply adore the Tristram Church art... I wish this mood and style would be more apparent in the actual gameplay teaser - I didn't know it was Tristram Church until I checked diablo3.com
