lightning demons, especially the black ones. they look real satanic, and the
black ones seem to be hiding in the shadows. any skeleton anywhere looks cool. balrogs look demonic too, but their heads are a bit small. the knights in hell are intimidating, standing head and shoulders above anyone, and that huge sword is dangerous looking.
and this is the problem with Diablo 2. just about all the monsters in that game just look damn stupid or silly. even the skeletons look wimpy, and how can you make a skeleton 'NOT' look cool!? they managed to do it. all the monsters in act 4 are really stupid, some are disgusting even, like those idiotic 'things' that puke? that is very gross and the fallen, who are suppose to be returns from diablo 1 church area? obnoxious and annoying. the boss reanimates them, and they squeak and cry when you kill them. just plain lame. even the goats look nancy, running around on their high heels. the knights in act four, with their dresses don't look scary, or amusing, they look stupid. amazing how lousy D2 looked.
and this is why i never cared for warcraft 2. it looked too cartoony. i didn't like the look at all, and it never captured my attention right away, the way diablo 1 did. if D1 had been goofy cartoony like warcraft 2, or warcraft 1 even, i never would have bothered with it. and warcraft 3 still looks silly cartoony, everyone with bell-bottom pants, what is this 1971? looks like my hippie sister dressed everyone.
now, even world of warcraft still has that w3 cartoony hippy look, but of coarse. but that game is so huge and has so much to it, that i can overlook the wacky look, somewhat. makes me want to play a mmoo that tries to look real. maybe diablo 3 will. but... wait, what was the question again?
