This isn't even a petition to "save the game" - the game is going nowhere. This is a petition to have the artistic direction moved more into line with what a particular band of geeks want to see.
What a fucking waste of time.

look, i hate to be the devils advocate, but they are completely correct.
the game looks terrible, like a wow clone, they really need to make it way more grim and darker and an independent art style.
it seems like instead of doing that they just took what they had from wow and are going to remake diablo on it, like a cash cow, rather than actually making a true sequel.
i also said this about sc2, its really hard to enjoy a game that cartoonish.

The screenshots do lack a sense of dread. The environments look glossy and not ''lived in''.

Come the fuck on, Starcraft 1 looked blocky and cartoony as hell too. Never have the rose tinted glasses been worn more than in this argument. Diablo 3 does NOT look like WoW, I've played both for years and I can honestly say the art styles are very different. We've also seen two fucking tiny environments and some random screenshots, hardly an indication of what the entire game will feel/look like.
I wish they'd throw some guitar music into the gameplay demo, though.

im really in no position to talk about former games. all i know is i reacted initially to the art style, im going to play this game so for me personally i would want a more realistic and grimmer look.

Every Blizzard game since the Warcraft III engine (on which the WoW engine was built) has looked somewhat cartoonish. But I liked the art direction in WoW and I like the slightly different art direction in Diablo 3.

This petition won't persuade anyone at Blizz. They're going to make the game how they see fit.
Still, whether or not you agree with someone's opinion of the art direction does not give you license to call them cunt/pathetic/nerd, etc.
If having an opinion one way or the other about something as harmless as video game graphics makes me a cunt, then I humbly offer you a fire which you may lie in while you fuck yourselves.

"18532 Signatures Total" !
I just signed, I totally agree that the art direction , though being very good , is not Diablo. I think what they are doing now is great, but it looks more like some generic Hero Game making slight references to Diablo PC, rather then the franchise I spent a couple of hundred hours playing in High School.
Yes, fan rage ruined Star Wars Prequels, and some other things, but I think we can all agree that the Diablo 3 game demos look like a Beefed up Gauntlet Legends with Havoc Physics. I'm not asking that D3 be a Monster manual and a twelve sided dice, but I really think that it should be stripped down a little bit in the glam department.

Nope, I'm not signing this. I saw this posted on neogaf and I think it's a load of b/s. People are claiming it looks like WoW, and it looks nothing like it.
The graphics and art pieces that have been shown are amazing, plus this trailer showcased prolly ~1% of the game if that. Not too mention Diablo 3 is prolly 2 years off from today. People are over-reacting, when I saw that trailer in HD I was absolutely blown away.

Just turn down the brightness on your screen if you feel so strongly about this. Every other game released these days is so dark you can't see anything. Apparently that's what the fans want. Leave me alone, fans.

Of those 18K, I bet a huge junk will buy it even though they dislike the art direction. And if someone is not going to purchase Diablo 3 because of it's art-direction, well flat-out - they're an idiot. Anyone that bitches about art style (we're not even talking about actual graphics!) over gameplay..... /facepalm

No one says you should, but like I said if you're "one of those people" who won't buy D3/think it sucks because of it's art-direction.....refer to my last post.

Zelda was ruined by fan whinging. I would have loved some more games like the Wind Waker, but instead we got the generic, lifeless mess of Zelda:TP, because the fans wanted it.

Btw, I started a character on the USEast ladder. It's been 5 years since I've last played, so I have a MF sorc as my main and a lowbie Paladin to play with others.
Anyone else on USEast ladder or thinking about reinstalling? If you don't have Diablo 2 or lost your cds/keys, you can buy a set of legit keys for $5, then all you do is register them and digitally download the game from blizzard's shop.

anyone signing this petition is an idiot. I bet some of the locations become more "goth" as you progress deeper into the story.
but, really, I know I'd get tired of walking around in hellish looking villages for the few 100 hours I might play it. a little variety etc is only for the better.
anyone who says this looks like WoW is also instantly an idiot.

Perhaps it's due to the fact that I've played WoW very recently, but I can certainly notice the similarities in the art direction and world models between the two games. I think D3 looks awesome so far, I'm just saying I think the people who say it doesn't look even remotely like WoW either haven't played WoW, or are simply deluding themselves. The similarities are definitely there.

I like the direction of the art in diablo3. The bright colors act as a contrast to the horror that is happening. If it looked like diablo2 then the same people would be arguing that its not taking any risks or developing, that its practically the same game. Nerdrage is fucking ridiculous at times.
