>Isn't is fire orange like a lot of projectiles?
No Archvile fire was bright yellow with light orange outlines, mostly to add depth. Their hands were red, blood red, when they weren't using fire, which was almost never.
The color of his arms aren't the point. I'm saying Eternal's design looks like a generic Activision/Blizzard alien or fantasy monster, with the only thing demonic about it being its red highlights. Archvile actually seemed demonic, hellish. Hell it looked like it was suffering, but was too evil to give a shit.
I guess the old design is just better at capturing the imagination.
