Gruesome Imagery

[[File:Gore-montage.jpg|frame|thumb|300px|Gruesome and gory images from Diablo 3 screenshots.]]
There is no shortage of bloody scenes and gruesome imagery in Diablo 3. One fan collected a bunch of representative images and worked them into a collage, just to prove it.
 
A major source of gruesome imagery in Diablo 3 comes from the [[critical hit]] graphics. When monsters die to a hit that trips for critical hit bonus impact, the result is usually spectacular, with the monster exploding in a style appropriate for the type of damage that did it in. Fire critical hits create flaming, melting chunks, physical damage detonates the corpse leaving ribs and blood everywhere, etc.
 
This can be seen in various screenshots, and it's quite impressive to witness when actually playing. Fans at Blizzcon 2009 reported occasionally knocking the skeleton out of a monster; the skeleton which would be sent sliding across the ground for dozens of meters, leaving along streak of blood the whole way. No, really.
There are quite a few screenshots and other images that have similar material in them. Enough that there's "gore" tag in the Image Gallery.
