That was definately a major worry for me when I started the map :p Luckily, Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo made me a camera trigger that keeps it at a set height :)

Your playable terrains are pretty nice, I remember 2-P made something like this (messing with perspectives) a while ago on the helper..

I think that your atmosphere gives a more diablo 3 like feeling tho

Archians terrain has more Diablo I and II feeling. The Diablo III Trailer atmosphere looked way different when compared to the older diablos. Too bright and not so dark.

A) Cliffs must DIE!
B) Stretched textures must DIE! as well. I understand that there's no way to make it that high without stretching, but mask it with some props.
C) Re-paint Arcs and End Walls, so they dont stand out. In one composition you got dark blue tiles, brown-orange columns and white borders in between, unbalanced.

Think about making detailed decorations, like steps borders made or arcs like here http://xgm.ru/pics/article/635_9.jpg (mine...)

I've been looking at them for a while now ... Looks like I can see the edge of the water model in the first picture at the lowest waterfall. Maybe some darker colors would be nice for the shrubs, and at the second picture, the color of the colums and the walls should be tinted into something blue that goes well up against the textures around.

Except from that this looks very sexy. :D
