Spoiler they look the same Because they are in very similar areas. My post was more about the text you wrote on it anyway. Comparing a super zoomed in ARPG to anything else is just being ridiculous. Shogun 2 doesn't have nearly as much character detail as mount and blade. Does that make it a bad looking game? (lol) What are you even talking about.

So what about the text on the picture? What about it being zoomed in? Oh and I didn't make that macro. Last edited by xxnoob#7582 on Apr 25, 2012, 2:52:45 PM	Posted by xxnoob#7582 on Apr 25, 2012, 2:51:39 PM Quote this Post

You can't compare 2 games from the same distance when in reality they are played from very different distances from eachother. That was my point. Hence the shogun and M&B comparison. EDIT: I see.. but then why post the picture with the macro if your point isn't about the macro? :P ''Stand amongst the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask the ghosts if honor matters.

It doesn't change the fact that it looks like an updated WoW. Both screens are zoomed in.	Posted by xxnoob#7582 on Apr 25, 2012, 2:53:50 PM Quote this Post
Well you're free to think it looks like that. I think it looks beautiful and very alive. :) ''Stand amongst the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask the ghosts if honor matters. The silence is your answer.'' IGN: Vaeralyse	Posted by Tagek#6585 on Apr 25, 2012, 2:54:51 PM Quote this Post
I like WoW graphics, but they're out of place in Diablo 3.	Posted by xxnoob#7582 on Apr 25, 2012, 3:00:23 PM Quote this Post

You can easily see that much of World of Warcraft was influenced by Diablo anyways. Items, Sockets, gems, skill trees, etc. What is the problem? Is it really a surprise that blizzard would use their excellent art teams for more then one project?? Shocker I know. Actually what he is saying is pretty likely. Think about it from a business perspective. You have the most popular online RPG ever. The customer base is huge, and your reputation with these customers is good. Does it not make perfect sense to create a similar feel in your new creation to try and get some of your customers to migrate over. Make them feel comfortable and familiar while you introduce some new mechanics and gameplay style? It's not bad. It's smart. Doesn't mean I like it. I'm heavily outnumbered though. There are a LOT of WoW fans out there. The customer base of Diablo fans that weren't fans of WoW ( and the art style it brings ) is quite small by comparison. "I would have listened...
