Title: Diablo 3 Watch
Post by: y00tz on June 27, 2008, 12:56:54 PM

Several sites have on good authority that another Diablo is coming, so if anyone sees anything official, posted after the timestamp of this post, post it.  The WWI doesn't start for a atleast a few more hours as far as I know.

Sweet Jehovah... err, Diablo...

I like the style in the screenshots, and the gameplay looks really fluid, this is awesome.

The graphics look 2003-ish.

I agree, to an extent. The shaders look pretty nice, but the texture resolution has to be much higher for it to really look good.

EDIT: Well... hm. I take that back. Everything already looks really clean and such, so I don't see what can be done there. I guess more advanced lighting effects would be nice, but they'd probably end up being a distraction over anything else. One thing that does need to be improved is the foliage, though. A lot.

I like the stylized look of it - but the aesthetics have never been the appeal in Diablo games.

I wish the actual game looked like the trailer.

The gameplay trailer is in-game, if that's what you're talking about. The cinematic trailer is, of course, prerendered and doesn't accomplish anything past a basic introduction and hyping. Blizzard just tends to do that.

Were you just stating this, or was it a bad thing?  Some of us like games with old graphics...
