Because those pieces of concept art were tagged as screenshots by Square Enix. Obviously Squenix PR's mistake.

Josh Sawyer's post at SAF Caravan Pack: pre-order bonus from Game.com.au

As we have expected, Square Enix owns Dungeon Siege IP. "DUNGEON SIEGE is a registered trademark of Square Enix Inc."

That was the idea yeah, but did it really turn out that well until now? Fallout New Vegas could get a pass because it's a project on top of an existing engine, almost untouched, with Obsidian just building content and new assets for the most part (yeah, there has been a rebalance and all that, but from the tech pov, they haven't changed much). But Dungeon Siege III is, as far as we know, a project done from scratch, worked on their proprietary engine, and with an existing franchise. Sounds to me that if they want this to be polished and published in a decent time (assuming they don't pull another Alpha Protocol again, announcing the game, and ending up publishing two years later) they'd have to work on it with a slightly larger team than usual, and it wouldn't hurt if it was managed.. well you know, how can I put it? Decently, yeah, that's the word. What? I just said Obsidian have been working on three projects at the same time since 2006, with two in full production and the other in pre-production (except for AP + Aliens +SoZ situation). Sorry but I don't need your long explanation about game development and project management. I trust Obsidian's opinions more than yours.

Developer Profile: Obsidian (Feb 1, 2006) "Obsidian's currently staffing up. Feargus hopes to have over 100 people by the end of the year with an eventual goal of having around 120 to 140 people. That will allow them to have teams working on three different games. Ideally, one team will be working on the core concepts of a game while the other two will be in full production mode."

Ziets working as lead creative designer on DS3 confirmed?
