TopicStill blows my mind how badly they botched Diablo 3's story *spoilers*

Forget the rocky launch, the real-money auction house, the bad itemization, all of that. I just don't understand still to this day how they so badly misunderstood what Diablo was about. The constant cringe-inducing one-liners, the villains showing up every thirty seconds to spout off "YOU'LL NEVER DEFEAT ME! MWAHAHA!" like Saturday morning cartoon villains, containing several immense plot developments within horribly animated in-game cutscenes... man. Such a big whiff after the ambiance of the first two games.

And like, it's weird because it clearly tried to do fanservice in a lot of ways but again just completely misunderstood what would resonate. No one wanted to see The Butcher make a WWE entrance, introduced by a hammy demonic butterfly, and scream "vegetables bad, meat good!"

I don't get it, man. Was it just Jay Wilson? I'll give credit where it's due and say Reaper of Souls improved on all of this about as much as you possibly could without feeling like a jarringly different game.
