Improved Storyline
I just wanted to share this US-forum post with you guys: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/5150111877?page=1 I reckon everyone agrees the story of D3 is paperthin, illwritten and has no intrigue whatsoever. Read the post to see that a few nice plottwists "could've" made the game alot more inter

Few questions
How Spear of Valor, forged in the heart of dying star, was easily shattered by Diablo and my STEEL armor did not ? What is more, why Imperius is not trying to stop Diablo when he is climbing to the Crystal Arch ? Is he afraid ? I thought that he "fears nothing". Why other Archangels just sit and wai

Inferno should have been the new secret Uber
D2 had Normal, Nightmare and Hell. Last boss is Hell Baal. But we had uber tristam. It was not so big, but you had to farm quite a bit to get there. Uber Tristam was something extra, not someting you felt was the official game. D3 should also have only 3 modes official: Normal, NM and Hell. Inferno

Adria the Witch
I was thinking about the whole development around Adria and her betrayal. And i think it all may be just another lie or manipulation of events. If you know the lore this is not so uncommon in Diablo as whole. For example the Prime evils and there plan with the Soul stones. Diablo story most of the t

ACT 1 - The falling star. What am I missing?
It turns out that Tyriel is the falling star. Also his sword was broken into 3 pieces. The question is how he got the sword after sacrificing it to destroy the worldstone? He also said that it took him 20 years to recover after that event which means that he had no powers.

I think this part of the story could be made better when you already have Kormac following you when you rescue another Kormac. When Jondar is killed, our hero agrees that the new Kormac should get the sacred tomes of his order, even though the new Kormac doesn't join the fight and the sacred tomes a

The virtues of Diablo 3´s storytelling
On a very fundamental level, the story of Diablo 3 is gripping. Despite a few bad lines here and there, the general plot keeps you wanting for more.

[SPOILERS] So about Leah...
After playing through the game on normal I noticed how Leah wasn't mentioned ONCE after she got taken over by Diablo. I quite liked her and that felt like a really plain and unsatisfying end, I would atleast expected a memorial or that someone (Tyrael or something) said something about her, but no.

So in the Wrath anime Diablo lures Imperius to give into his rage and wrath to slay Diablo. When Imperius do that, Diablo say that quote. I didn't really get that "trap" had any impact on Diablo III at least. And i think Diablo's plan was NOT to destroy and conquer the High Heavens but instill fear

Essentially - one can't die?
Really, how many times did you defeat diablo so far? Presumably ''killing'' him, and yet - he comes back. I'm getting the impression that a game such as this can go on - story wise - forever. You simply can't die/kill someone without them coming back. Or am I missing something here?

A Writer's Perspective
As a (albeit young and unpublished) writer myself, I can acknowledge the decent parts of Diablo IIIs story, and also flinch at the general lack of 'show don't tell' in the main campaign. The side lore was actually far more enjoyable to listen to than several of the more 'narmy' bits of central writi

The True Twist
It feels as if the game ended with a very happy end.
