'Diablo III' Fans Start Petition To Keep New, Colorful Art Direction

20
MTV Multiplayer writes: "Yesterday we reported why Blizzard decided to alter the dark art style of the "Diablo" franchise and how this angered so many fans that they started a petition against the new, colorful world of "Diablo III."

However, other fans were angry that a petition was even made to ask Blizzard to change what they had done. So what did they do? They started a petition. Well, two of them, actually."

Ugh. I'd rather go back to the darkness I had come to love. MFing, PVPing, Rushing, Duping.. I'd expect the new Diablo's direction to be guarded like a virgin queen, wearing a diamond chastity belt.

So far it looks like the "change colors people" petition people are more organized and vastly outnumber the unorganized "keep the colors" petition people

Seriously how many "keep the colors" petition can they keep on making? its now like in 5 -_- shouldn't they concentrate on finding people to actually sing them? I mean almost all of the "keep" have not passed the 1000 signatures while the "change" one its almost around 30.000

and at the end...are ANY of the petition even gonna work?

more at 6! XD

5.1 - no
Only a handful of petitions ever work out in the end.
I've got an idea boys, lets make a petition to end petitions everywhere. tally ho!
Oh and I hate these stupid ass fans, that do this, they get a game that will be amazing and yet it will never be perfect, they always have to find something to pick at, just enjoy it it's a game, sure it the art direction may disappoint you but get over it you babies, just be glad diablo didn't get made into a first person, cell shaded, platformer. jeesus m christie!

"I've got an idea boys, lets make a petition to end petitions everywhere. tally ho!"

I actually know there are at least 2 of those XD

If you ask me personally about this whole color/art debacle I would tell you I would still play it using the current thing (looks similar to the one used in TQ and I had no trouble with that one) but if give the choice I would like to see the colors modified to what some fans envisioned since it looks a LOT better than the current one and it wouldn't necessarily need a complete remaking of the game it will also be nice if at least Blizzard gives us an optional color filter to achieve this (since that is what the fans used)

just in case you haven't seen it this is what I am talking about

How does expressing yourself make you a loser? You're the biggest loser one here complaining about people expressing themselves freely....

I have to agree with the petition to change the art style of Diablo III, i'm sure you're all not that blind to see that Diablo III looks alot like WoW...

Who the hell wants to play Diablo III in a WoW type of graphic? Those who have played Diablo I & II know what I'm talking about... Its the reason why i also signed the petition...

10 - people are getting this wrong.
it's not about "colour" it's about the tone the game sets.

Diablo has always been a more mature game, and thats what people want. Desaturate it a little bit(and only around the edges of the screen), saturate the bolder colours(like the dark reds, magic effects) and around the character and add more blood and violence while removing stuff like the rainbows.

11 - If You Don't Like It
If you don't like the new art direction for D3, then don't buy it.

Cry us a river, then build us a bridge and get over it.

I duno about everyone else but I saw the 20 minute gameplay video and I loved the art direction and towards the end when the hulking demon grabbed the barbarian and bit him into spilling guts,blood and the whole shebang, I completely forgot there was a art dispute going on. Keep going Blizz forget the naysayers!!

14 - Less than one week since it was announced...
...and they're already moaning about a game that probably isn't going to be out for at least two years. Talk about quick reactions. The alpha versions of Warcraft 3 that was being shown off at the big events like E3 was miles different from the finished product three years later. Don't they realise that nothing is concrete, most of the graphics are placeholders, and whatever's on screen now very little will remain in the finished product anyway? Crying out right now is pointless.
