I did watch all the interviews and Art panels and also have a very high-res version of the gameplay vid that i watched many times.
And i have to say everything they are aiming for makes sense and is wonderfully realsied in the demo they showed, if the game is released tomorrow i wouldn't mind buying it at its current state even without any poilish.

They dont look like serious. They are approachin to a wow-like feeling with it. Witch doctor have to be an evil man. But he is not givin the feel of "evil" to me. He is just funny for me.
OK man, u are arguin the drawings, dont u feel anything from a game? All of them are JUST games?
I have grown up wif Diablo I. And i worship the D2. Yes, u cannnot feel the difference.
Thats all: we dont like the new styles feeling. We say it openly. It is not our work or responsibility changing or keeping the games design, its all Blizzards matter.
Really, who are you kidding, how more serious do you want them to look like, the are detailed, dark, gritty, and the WD have bones piercings all over his body, his looks look exactly like how a witch doctor would look like in real life ( if not slightly stylized, because you know what, it is a game, i hope you are not surprised by this revelation )
Is that how serious you want then to look like ( this is the 3D model that the in-game sprite is taken from ), this guy has plastic skin and looks funny as hell, i hope you are not serious about that cause it ain't funny :rolleyes:
Anyone can clearly see which one is more Realistic and Gritty, your argument is just funny.
If only those who keep whining would just leave their fanaticism for few seconds and use their minds and eyes to see the fantastic work being made in D3 i'm sure we wouldn't have any whining problems at all.

Hunter-Wolf, I would take your argument apart bit-by-bit if it weren't written so awfully and full to the brim with immature insults. Seriously, moderators, where are you? Hunter-Wolf has single-handedly ruined this entire thread with his gigantic, puzzle of a post, and not only that, he's hurling insults at us by the bucket-load. Please, sort him out.
Too much for not having anything meaningful to say.
Sigh ... even more SOLID VISUAL PROOFS on the subject
You say they look like WoW characters, are you even listening to yourselves guys, are you having sight problems or what, they have nothing to do with WoW art style at all, but i leave to whine for all eternity cause that's all you can do ( besides taking D3 screenshots to play with the contrast and darken the colors, lol )

@Hunter-Wolf: I actually found the bumps/textures on that one quite pleasing:
And whilst I agree that some areas in D2 where bright and colorfull, the overall feel was different.

Actually Diablo 3 looks much more interesting that this, the slightly stylized look sets it apart from all the other generic 3D hack & slash that all look the same, they also should never use bump-maps and realistic reflection, first because of how taxing this will make the game, and second because it adds to the realistic, boring, uninteresting look and feeling, stylized look is much more interesting and engagning.

I cannot believe anyone would support a Diablo game as a happy-go-lucky cartoon Warcraft gnome dancing festival.
Diablo is notorious for being that cool horror/gothic/dark/scary RPG. HECK, the THEME of the game is DIABLO!! LORD OF TERROR AND ALL THINGS SINISTER!!
Now tell me WHERE THE HECK does rainbows, bright vibrant colors, copy-pasted WoW-tard graphics, fit in a game as freggin' awesome and dark as Diablo!??!
Have all of you lost your mind? I garauntee most of these people supporting such an atrocious version of Diablo are all from WoW and like simple fun/happy/dancing crap like that.
Give me the real Diablo not this mainstream crap.
So yes, DARKEN THE GRAPHICS !! OR Diablo himself shal CURSE YOU !
Read my post above, you clearly don't know what you are talking about.
I hate WoW guts and will never play because i think it is too stylized, and Diablo 3 looks nothing like it, there is NOTHING in common between the two, each one of them HAS ITS OWN STYLE.
