The new concept screenshot is a real-time in-game render!

Umm. They are using a new graphics engine that is better optimized and future proof. They are NOT changing the art direction of the game. All the same artists are still working on it. Zenaku, your signature suggests you are an Akihiko Yoshida fan. Well he is still the person behind the game's art direction, as he has always been. I think the problem is in your head. At least give them the benefit of the doubt until you have seen more than a single alpha quality screenshot of a battle.

To quote David Hume:
"In our reasonings concerning matter of fact, there are all imaginable degrees of assurance, from the highest certainty to the lowest species of moral evidence. A wise man, therefore, proportions his belief to the evidence."

Ya that what everyone telling me even my gf. About Akihiko Yoshida i won the card deck without even knowing him then i start liking his type of art i guess i should wait and give it time but you know sometime you dislike something and it grow on you. it's only one screenshot i just hope they take things from other game but don't make it into a wow-clone for the sake of getting that type of player base. Like go the later stuff not dungeon change the names don't call everything the same just for the sake of helping out wow players.
