Will you play D2 again then OR D1. I am not those outlandish visual fanatics but when the game look too cartoon, it somehow doesn't feel right. Gameplay of course is important and never want to argue about this but why cant Runic make the game a bit more mature and gothic? I have pre-ordered this game and waiting for it ever since.
I think the beginning of the Torchlight wasn't easy for the team to decide on the art style, I bet they didn't anything to look like Diablo, dark and gore because Diablo already did it and they wanted the same game formula but different art style.

In a feature article on Gamasutra, art director Jason Beck explained that Torchlight's art style was inspired by comic books and classic film animation, using stylized character designs combined with painterly background textures. The developers have described the game's look as inspired by "Dragon’s Lair meets The Incredibles."The team chose to give the game world a lighter fantasy tone to make it more inviting, rather than utilizing a "dark and gritty" style.

Once upon a time, well..just recently, there is a game, the graphic is so real and so nerdgasm, people that play jizzing rainbow during gameplay.
They worship this game as it was given by the gods.

One worshipper do the unthinkable
