New Skins and reworks getting worse

I thought I would just post on here while I was on the forums (because I never get on them) what I thought about the direction of new skins and reworks.

IMO, the new stuff is starting to get more and more bland. What I mean by that is less detailed. It almost looks as though they took some of the old stuff and used a smudge brush and Gaussian blur tool on them. As with the new Alistar changes for example.

Is it not supposed to get more detailed with better technology? I personally like the new rift, but but less detailed skins is not the way to go IMO. The skins should be more detailed than the backdrop. I personally have a hard time tracking soft surfaces on top of soft surfaces, but maybe that is just me.

I wanted to post this before more and more reworks and skins have this happen to them. Skins should be sharper and more detailed than previous versions.

What do you guys think?

I think you should go play DOTA 2. Naw man, the new artworks are much better. The background are far cleaner and have much more detail. As for the actual in game models, I think its fine, because I prefer they new models as opposed to the pizza feet ones. EDIT: PArticles are also getting sexier. Check out Arclight Vel Koz and Fire Cracker Jinx.

i agree with you about the skins lacking details, the reason they are doing this is because they want everything to look equal to the new summoners rift. If you look at the summoners rift right now, it is actually more blended than our old rift. I think they are going for a cleaner version of the game.
