The female wizard
in Diablo looks quite a bit like her original concept art and her appearance
was widely-accepted and non-controversial. But the male wizard, on the other
hand, had a very controversial reveal among players owing Diablo 3 accounts. Blizzard has revealed
the male model of Diablo III's wizard class, sporting a look that many late
70's, and early 80’s rock stars would have given all of their chest hair for. No
one thought much of his concept art or paid much attention to his appearance
when he debuted as a playable character in the BlizzCon 2009 demo.
The
primary complaints were that he looked too effeminate, and while there was
arguably a homophobic edge to the complaints, anyone can see that the male
wizard is far from the strongest-looking character in the game. The character
lore stresses how headstrong, confident, and haughty the wizard is in his/her
arrogant youth, and in matching that description the male wizard falls short.
He's just not an imposing, powerful looking individual. Some fans pointed out
that he's very much typical of the current look of many heroic males in popular
anime; wearing an indifferent, too-cool-for-school meterosexual look. Now the male wizard in Diablo III is
showing just as much, if not more skin than his female counterpart, who made
her debut during BlizzCon 2008. My goodness, has this game really been in
development this long?
Then what do you
think of the look of the Male Wizard? Is it good, but could be improved? Or you
hate it and will play the female Wiz? Or you are indifferent about this? Come
and tell us your opinions, and we will offer the lucky fellow some cheap Diablo 3 gold in
the activity.
