You've got to be kidding me? Is this thread serious? Sorry, but i'm going to have to rant! The game was only announced on saturday, and we know very little about it. To those that aren't satisfied with what they have seen, you don't have to buy it, continue to play the Diablo games that you prefer. On a side note, nothing in the Starcraft 2 graphics department has changed, the only thing different is that more content was released, making the game seem more natural. Give it time, i'm positive Blizzard has cooked up an ample amount of different zones, all with different feels and influences. It's the Diablo franchise, the name alone promises (no pun intended) one hell of a game!
Like I said earlier, the first part of the demo was of a place called "Forgotten Tombs", clearly a place that needs an aged, worn, and dark atmosphere, and not the clean-edged, washed out, water-color appearance it currently has.
And we all realize it's a very early release. It's just important for Blizzard's target audience and major player demographic to get their opinions out earlier so (if they choose), they can modify the game easier.
While I agree the skinning and low-poly model aren't particularly attractive, the physical age of the barbarian is meant to be older (since the game takes place 20 years later).
This pic is bright, but it's still has realistic characters and textures.
THIS is the barb that should be fully playable in 3D.
That would be next gen.

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!!!!!
20 years passing is no excuse for making cartoon characters with oversized armor.

I still believe the diversity presented is better then just having everything goth gray overshaded. Plus it'll get boring staring into the same damned textures over and over. Plus, last I checked, the world has color and not all dark n' gloomy. While a fantasy game, its more believable this way. Go into a church or old monestary and look around, it's not one shaded.
But an abandoned, fouled, one with demonic beings inside.. does ...
all i have to say is this is d3 not d2, if you want the game to be exactly like d2 in look and feel go play d2. theres no point in spending millions of dollars to make the exact same game. its called evolution people.
+1 i agree very good.
The only thing that needs to be enhanced graphic-wise is the detail. The levels seem a bit too clean and smooth.

Curious to say that because that's exactly what Blizzard did to Starcraft 2, its the "exact same game" as Starcraft 1 and they spent millions of dollars.

What the shit is this fuck?

Relax, spaz , you'll be able to customize your characters appearance, most likely.
And if not, STFU. It's called aging. Humans tend to do that.

^^^ Not the barb we expected.

I have no gripes over the barbarian, I think he looks quite nice as he is.
