Completely agree.
Evolution is like Fallout 2 --->Fallout 3
Fallout 2 was 2D and ugly but *realistic*, Fallout 3 became 3D and *realistic* (plus it looks amazing).
I'd say it's worse due to the fact that everything still looks like it's made from lego blocks. It's not sharp, it's still silky-smooth and polished, and that's what bothers my eye...
still looks like WoW's armor, hair, body parts, color, etc.
I would say they have a better feeling now Diablo finaly looks rpgish rather then pure hack&slash in a tomb. I dont think it looks cartoonish sure its not like Age of Conan but it certantly aint like in WoW.
Dont think the mobs looks silly either, they will use alot of classic ones but i do hope they keep added new twisted demons to the ranks of the darklord.
At least you're not flaming and that's good.:)
But wouldn't you rather have more realistic graphics?
If D2 was made in 2008 it would look even better than Age of Conan (which looks very realistic btw).

^^^ Not the barb we expected.

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.

Are you saying Blizzard does not have the technology to make REALISTIC 3D characters?
Serious question. What do you think?

hahah yea, it's true.
Diablo fans wanted a game that looks like Diablo, but next gen.
Developer's neglected a simple request and made a cartoon.

Exactly.
They didn't have much to work with and they were working on something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from Diablo.

Exactly.
Perfect example of how detailed, gritty, defined, realistic Diablo's textures are.
It's still day time, but it there is no hand-painted textures, or exaggerated cartoon characters.

Transferring realism into 3D is not hard.
Just look at screens of Oblivion, Fallout 3, Age of Conan. (I won't mention FPS games)

Which rocks look hand-painted and which ones look real??
And people say it's not cartoony...wtf
And the realistic ground is from Diablo 2, which is over 8 years old. pathetic.
need new artists.

D1 and D2 WERE realistic.
Look at the detail in D2 Lut Gholein, the BRIGHTEST place in game.
The textures look realistic, same with character models.
The armor looks normal sized and colored in regular colors.
3d does not mean cartoony. Just imagine rotating the camera view in the picture above.
