Diablo III - Counter

Hi guys! A few days ago I looked through my old projects and found one cool button that I made a 3 years ago for Diablo III promotional website.
And so, I got nostalgic about those skeuomorphic times. About how we've spent hours making our UI super realistic. Back then, you had to have great skills to make a superb UI, a far cry to today's tendencies.

How do you think, will those times come back or they are forgotten forever?

Also, feel free to show some love by pressing “L” ;)
