Well, think about it: It has been in development for ...7 years? The graphics were set about 5 years ago so the graphics will be equivalent to mid-range PCs (not gaming rigs or the gaming consoles) for about 5 years ago. Graphics would be "par" for a normal computer about 5 years ago. Not good, but not bad.
They have spent the remaining 5 years polishing the story, gameplay mechanics, battle system, item system, RPG system (dice rolls, etc), level design, and so forth.
Basically, everything I just stated is complete shit and I am trolling the crap out of Blizzard...but none of the devs or testers will ever see this post so it is forever alone raging at blizzard.
