Some of his points are good, others not so great... but what it really misses is what I complained about most, the actual art style, not just the use of color and light (though many of those added-shadows pictures do look better and more like Diablo II like the full-viewing-distance official shots -- "the tech doesn't allow it (without raising system requirements too high, I would imagine)" isn't really a satisfactory answer...
But it's the artstyle itself and how the game looks like WC3 or WoW that's the biggest problem. I largely agree that the game looks fine with use of color as they have; that's not the problem, and yes, Diablo II used color too.
