Are you blind? Actually compare the image for gods sake. Different armor, different pose, different physiology and a different blade. This isnt a BW Protoss, they literally changed everything to make it seem more sc2 like.

Weather you like the new version or not, you cannot deny the sc2 influence. Here is what puts me off a little summarised in an image I put together in 5 minutes:

This is one of the only changes I don't like at all. It's okay but they changed it too much.

Look at the original zealot's face. Nothing like this one. Totally different. Different eye color, different face shape, head size. Bulkier armor, has an iconic plate in front of his face that you can easily see everywhere else, but missing. No nerve cords are showing ( the thing between his legs ). The lights are extremely shiny. Look at the shoulder pads, so tiny compared to the original zealot. Also the color of the original was a yellow/orange not golden etc. This is not the original zealot model I don't know what you're talking about friend.

Everyone who have heard the original Zealot voice and lines should be aware that the second picture is much more accurate to the spirit of the unit compared to the old one.

utter shit catering to 14 year olds, just like sc2

Not flaming, just being honest. I thought the Zerg one was much better.

Protoss are alien in every sense. They shouldn't express themselves like humans.

I don't like the art style direction of sc2, and this new protoss victory screen screams sc2 art style. For that reason I'm out! -Shark Tank.

But seriously, I noticed an artwork style trend difference from the 2010s and the 1990s. In anime, the 1990s to early 2000s they looked more gritty and more realistic, colors were not always so bright or shiny or plastic looking and to me felt more relatable artwork. Now anime artwork is all polished, glazed like barbie dolls and shiny. Same kind of concept here with sc2. Everything is so polished and shiny, for me it detracts and makes it less relatable to me. Call me old fashioned but I am not into lolli artwork or super shiny everything.

You would think that's the case, but it isn't throughout those old concept art and even in some of the cinematics

That's ridiculous. They're not as alien as the zerg and they are plenty expressive in the lore, the story, and even in the unit voiceovers.

No idea how you could even tell, given that according to this statement of yours you must be blind or at least dead-drunk. AlphaSquad already gave yo some details, but it should be pointed out that Protoss appearance was already signifcantly changed (not for the better, I think) between SC vanilla and brood war: The face/skin got a lot smoother, armour lighter or almost non-existant. Look at the portrayal of Artanis. It's so different from what a Protoss should look like. Maybe it was meant to underline that he was actually quite young for a Protoss, I don't know. But Zeratul is portrayed in much the same manner. compare Zeratul's and Artanis'
portrayal from the BW campaign end cinematic with the portrayal of Tassadar in the vanilla end scenematic... Original Protoss still looks both the most "badass" (as opposed to wannabe-poser) and the most Alien.

Also, the devs said that their goal was to preserve the original art style and just fill in details where they were pixelated out due to technical limitations in the original release – so why change the armor and anatomy design that drastically? Especially considering that the in-game model will necessarily have to keep all the details of the original design?

I expect the marines in the defeat and victory screen for Terran to look bulky as hell, i mean if you look at the original screen the marine looks like he is wearing a suit, I'm guessing in the new one he is gonna look alot more like a transformer

The overall quality of the screen is better, though the style looks more SC2 ish.




*actual promise is not real, mostly for the joke. unfortunately.

Dont forget, he will shine so bright as to be almost glaring.
