it doesnt look exactly like the d2 act ending cinematics, but thats because the graphics are better and more realistic.
and why does this even matter? i mean when u watch realistic CG movies they all look like this, and the only thing i would ever be worries about concerning anime, is if they infused some cheesy, crappy, anime storyline into the game, which is highly improbable. almost 100%.
Yeah every movie nowdays should look like 300?
Yellow shades and cool slow moments (ok i dont say they invented them first)
Go back and read whole thread if you didnt,i posted lot of facts.
DIABLO LOOK EVERYTHING JUST NOT DIABLO.
I KNOW THAT YOU GUYS ARE HAPPY THAT D3 IS FINALY COMING.
BUT I WOULD RATHER WAIT 3 MORE YEARS and play REAL DIABLO 3 than get it tomorow this washed out wow/warcraft universe-anime-rainbow-gay- looking diablo
WTF are you talking about? Thats "My neighbor Totoro" by Hayao Miyazak, who YOU suggested was the anime artist we should look at.
This started out being "It's too animeish" and it's slowly becoming "It's too WoWish"
You knew the WoW argument wouldn't fly so you found anything you could and tried to label it animeish.
I was kidding of course its totoro i was trying to be SARCASTIC
I ALLREADY SAID that WOW from Burning Crusade is run by artists that are lot into anime as i said dozen times JUST LOOK BURNING CRUSADE TRAILER.
Blizzard usualy uses same CREW (original diablo crew disbanded???) so most ppl who worked on wow now work on diablo 3 YOU CAN SEE IN THEIR STYLE solours,cartoonish etc...

I watched the burning crusade cinematic I saw no Asian theme.
I saw stuff that was already in Warcraft but in cinematic form.
You still didnt see whole thread where i posted PICTURES,NAMES OF ARTISTS (mostly asian or something mix i dont really know where are they born and where they parents come from)
Sure lead artist is still western but they probably had some agreements and decided to go freely not sticking to their traditional style
And today everything is about MONEY
They know that ANIME WORKS so why dont implement some of it in our movies??

And those are all opinions, you really dont get it >_> What you see i dont, all i see is diablo looking cinimatics that are very real and realistic.
The Diablo Cinematic is comparable to the Final Fantasy one, because they both use a similar high-tech CG animation program thats meant to mimic the look and feel of real-life characters. It's just a popular CG animation-technique, and just because asians have used it, that doesn't mean its traditional "anime." I have yet to see spikey colorful hair, and hand-drawn anime cinematics in Diablo.
As far as i can see from your signature,you are watching too many "wrong" kind of anime (tv series) while there are some good ones,you should watch more quality anime from master filmmakers like Katsuhiro Otomo,Hayao Miyazaki etc.
TV anime is the most popular and abundant compare to anime movies. I already watched most of their movies (Akira, My Neighbor Toro, Spirit Away Etc) and I admit that Katsuhiro Otomo and Hayao Miyazak are great anime artist, but they don't do any anime movies that use 3D graphics like the Diablo 3 Trailers. Hell, a lot of animes don't use 3D rendered graphics that much anyways.

Also i know a lot teens who "watch anime" but actualy they just watch popular anime (naruto dragonball one piece etc) but that is just one of many anime types
Yea, because those anime you list are general targeted at teens in Japan and they're all party of the same genre. Diablo III is a game made in the U.S for all intended purposes aim at the the teens there. Blizzard is game company not a anime studio. They don't make a game that looks anime-ish because they know that's not attracts business for them.

Anime line is different There is different approach that anime artist use and western traditional... its hard to explain but you can feel it...
No, it's the human proportions and how realistically they are drawn. Western animations tend to be realistic while Japanese and other asian animations tend to exaggerate the human body. Signature sign of anime in Japan is the big eyes. How in the heck does the girl in the Diablo III trailer look any where near anime-ish?! Don't tell me the reason why you made this thread was just because you didn't like how the eyes were drawn on the girl in the trailer.
Good God. Can we not just let this be? We are GETTING Diablo 3. Feel freaking lucky? Complaining about something like this? Come on! Instead of making petitions and topics about the art style, we should make a petition or topic SOLELY based on thanking Blizzard. Good Lord.

So you don't want animeish CG, you don't want 300 type CG, what the hell do you want?
Because D2 cinematics were good for 2000, but now we're in 2008 and they look like crap.
I watched the burning crusade cinematic I saw no Asian theme.
I saw stuff that was already in Warcraft but in cinematic form.

i second this, what the hell do you want?
ive asked you this like 9 times, and you keep avoiding it, we know you dont want anime, but what then?
"to the worm in horseradish, the world is horseradish."
How does THIS illidan from Warcraft, look any different than the one from the WoW cinematic?
How does it look any less "animeish".
Because you said since Burning Crusade everything looks animeish.
And those are all opinions, you really dont get it >_> What you see i dont, all i see is diablo looking cinimatics that are very real and realistic.

his power level is over 9000!!!!
it may have anime roots, but animation is just that...such a little part of the game, whereas story and atmosphere are so much more important

It's not really THAT anime influenced. Anime just happens to use the same realistic looking cinematics. I honestly can't see the big idea here.

There isn't a problem he was grasping for straws for a reason to complain about the artwork.
