    Uhm, I hate to burst your bubble, but that barbarian youre showing in that D3 screenshot is the female version. I would agree if it was the male version, but its not. period.
    And that proves how stupid it looks when even guys like you think its the male version.

    I agree it looks almost exactly like the male artwork. But look at the real male version in the game. It doesnt look anything like the artwork. It looks CARTOONISH.

    That's the Male





    That's the Female







    For God's sake, show me when did i say other wise,

    I was clearly and explictly talking about the ARMOR when i showed the Female barb.



    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    And the only thing that looks cartoony here is this







    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Anyway u missed the point, im not saying d2 looks better than d3 from a graphical standpoint, it obviously looks nicer
    im trying to illustrate the artistic direction overall isnt staying true to diablo, its obviously INFLUENCED more by warcraft than d2, imo KEEP THE GAMES SEPARATE! as much as possible PLZ


    You all think this way cause D2 is a freaking 2D game and War3 is 3D, that's clearly the reason to all this mess, the only resemblance between D3 and WC3 is that they are BOTH 3D GAMES.

    But D3 and WC3 are separate, not every stylized game is the same, the market is filled with stylized game and each one of them is unique, just like D3 is now with its pastel colors and detailed models and textures.


    which is WRONG!


    Sorry, but we are not the ones who made Diablo, Blizz are the only ones who have the right to say what diablo should be and what it shouldn't be.

    They are the only ones how have the right to define what the new diablo will be exactly, no one else has that right, because none of you is on the Dev team nor worked on the development of any Diablo games of even had any hand at how diablo looks, it is all up to them and you have to respect that.

    Games are not a democracy, games are a vision and choice of the game creator, you are not part of the Dev team and you don't own shares in the company to tell them what they need to do, fans think to higly of themsleves these days, if you like the game you buy it, if you don't then just don't buy it, it is an open market, simple as that, and it works with all other comapnies.

    Many other companies are successful without listening to their fans as much as Blizz do, and i have to say with the reaction many people made that Blizzwas better off doing like other companies ( 99% ) and relsesing the game when it is done without showing us anything in the alpha stage of development.

    Blizz is an exception and people are starting to take it for granted, this will soon backfire at us, they might stop listening and releasing any news about their games like eveybody else does.

    You are the ones you ar backstabbing the company by not trying to understand their new vision and reasons for change, if there is anyone at fault here it is the whining fans.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Judging from Diablo sales ( in millions ) that number is a minority not a majority really, all those satisfied with the new Diablo 3 are the ones you don't hear whining ( except me and few others who got fed of all the whining and decidied to counter it )

    the game i see isnt unique at all, thats my point it looks like titan quest or some other diablo ripoff. i was just expecting somthing more true to the franchise yet still original in its own right.


    Actually many see it very unique, it will look more like Titan Quest if they do actually change it to the way you want.

    Isn't that what you want




    Well, sadly that's Titan Quest


    And that's Dungeon Siege 2


    Can't you see how both look generic and boring, the look almost identical, only with TQ having better graphics, but both have the same boring style.


    D3 looks nothing like this now, and many people ( including myself ) don't want it to.
