The original zones had a much better and more consistent art style, with a generally lighter and more colorful palette. It 'felt' like high fantasy.
The new art style that began with the Luclin game engine felt like sci-fi. Total immersion breaker.
New character models suffered the same problems. Bad and stilted animations, didn't feel very 'fantasy', generally just plain aesthetically bad. Had none of the character and humour of the original models which was part of the fun of them.
