So far a colossal let down.
I watched the live stream today and it didn't do anything to win me over.
The art is horrendous (looks like they hired someone from tumbler do the art and create the characters) and i'm not a fan of app assisted games
With such a glut of new dungeon crawlers coming out ( Darkest Dungeon, Frost Haven, Massive Darkness 2) and the hefty price tag,  Descent really has it's work cut out for it.
 
For now this is a whiff...

As someone who has no horse in this race and has very little emotional attachment to the Terrinoth universe, the art they've used for their products prior to this point (such as in the Genesys book) strikes me as incredibly generic fantasy art. Not artistically bad (the artists they contract all [mostly] do excellent work), but the designs and imagery is very bland, as in, it could be from something from Lord of the Rings or maybe Warcraft or maybe Dungeons and Dragons or maybe something else.
It just seems like, with this new style, someone is trying to give Terrinoth a newer, more identifiable style, for better or worse.

New art isn’t new, you read it here first.
