Diablo 3 Color Controversy Revisited
Reigniting the "Diablo III is too colorful" controversy, DIII.Net and fan Sozou bring us a Diablo III gameplay trailer meant to show what Blizzard's anticipated PC RPG would look like, in motion, under a desaturated art style. In Blizzard's previous judgments of darker fan renderings, Diablo III designer Jay Wilson stressed that desaturated color made it more difficult to identify on-screen objects and therefore reduced the ease of play. The author of the video below feels that he addresses these concerns while still giving the game a "darker" ambiance. Wilson also noted that some other fan renderings sported effects that certainly looked pretty, but aren't possible in the current engine. http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/54697 |

There's not that much difference...I don't see what anyone's complaining about. |

These fans can go to hell. They want darker atmosphere? Go play Gears of War 2 where everything is gray... Even the freaking grass. |
