I would even go so far as to say that it is really not possible to reach an atmosphere in Diablo 3 that is similar to the first parts. That is simply because, in my opinion, a lack of information tends to make stuff more interesting, and generally better. In D1, you had basically no idea what was going on, and usually the suggestions you get are fare better than when you get exact information as to how stuff works. As soon as you know how stuff works, and why things are like they are, it all gets rational and scientific, and that makes it somehow...sterile. With most stories, the explanation for the strange stuff you see can not live up to the expectations, so better stories keep some stuff open to guess, instead of really explaining every single detail.

And that is the main point of those older grafics, if you look at them carefully, they are mostly pixely blobs. But they activate your fantasy, and your imagination is always better than just grafics. So, because the stuff looks less exact, you get immersed more into the game, and it becomes more real. At least that is how i feel.

Oh yeah, loved all that shit. Playing with the lights out and the sounds on a little big higher.. oh yeah. Looking forward to D3, I hope I get that kind of feeling again!

I just replayed Diablo 1 for the first time in ten years because of this thread and I noticed how the game lost all sence of fear when you get to the caves. While the first two areas are dark and atmospheric the last two are colorful and gawdy. The hell in diablo 2 is much better done.

what? the caves had the best music though... and hell in diablo 2 felt like a level 1 cave dungeon place, didnt have that "hell" feeling i suppose.. at least d1's hell had blood and corpses everywhere with creepy music and almost no light radius

LOOOOOOOOOOOL your photo in your profile is dorky.. and some of your posts are lackluster diablo 2 kicks serious ass.. i still have hope for diablo 3 to be at least as gory and horror oriented.

D2 was neither gory nor horror oriented...

Now imagine all that stuff in a modern 3D RPG with firstperson view. Impaled and chewed of bodies, chained mutilated corpses, pools of blood filled with human limbs.
They would definitely forbid that in Germany

# bloodstained: covered with blood; "a bloodstained shirt"; "a gory dagger"
# accompanied by bloodshed; "this bitter and sanguinary war"

This isn't a matter of opinion

One of the few things that actually creep me out are those giant guys in Act 2 who use corpses wrapped in chains to bludgeon you. For some reason that kind of scares me.
