holy shit Blizzard.. amazing trailer, as always I tought it was pathetic. And it looks like Blizzard is sticking with the Power Ranger boss dialogs. Black Tyrael: "The nephalem will stop you." Random cool looking uninspired vilain: "Noone can stop death."
we may argue about the dialogue, but you cant deny that the quality is just top notch

Malthael better not die...
He was literally the only interesting character left in the Diablo universe (besides Covetous Shen I guess).
God they really know how to fuck up their stories big time. At the end of D2 there was so much potential. It just feels all wasted.

Shen was awesome. But i don't know if i heard all the dialogues with him and if you know in the end if he is a god or not.

it's an action game for the teenager... of course it will be : "i will kill you ! no ! i will !".
You think teenagers want literature when playing a game were you just go around and kill more things than in a fps ?

Apparently, I didn't either. Because the end cinematic looked to me like he was ascending to reclaim his status as an angel with the invisble glowy sparkle steps and the monologue and all that.
Even in act 1, the crazy healing preacher guy says something about how "justice must die for wisdom to be born" or something.

another melee class that appears to overlap with the monk = meh.

I think you need to apply the Giant Bomb rule of Video games stories: All video games story suck, unless they don’t. But when they don’t, they are still video games.

New Feature - Loot Runs
15-20 minute completely random dungeons!
Random weather!
Random enemies!
Random boss!
Multitiered (severa levels deep)!
The Mystic
Can Transmogrify items, so you don't have to sacrifice looks for power.
Item Enchanting - allows to reroll one of the affixes on a rare/legendary item.
New Level Cap - 70
Every class gets new Skills and Runes
Which means a fresh economy and new power-cap as well
New Act
Featuring what looks like Westmarch, with lots of graveyards and other fun places!
Major Paragon Changes
Is now Account wide.
No longer has a cap
Seems to have Stat Allocation tied to it
"But what do paragon points do? can they only be used once on each hero? do they add stats or?
@Narull It's a customization system. Paragon Points can be spent on various stats like STR/VIT/DEX/INT, movement speed, crit chance, etc."
"also, what happens to the people who've already leveled up in Paragon?
@peli_can_flip Bonuses are retroactive. I.E. If you have two p100 heroes right now, the current plan is that you'd have 200 points in ROS."
(So for you min/maxers, ideal would be to have 10 chars at P50)

Maybe he is only a bad ass angel in Heaven? I remember there was some lore that bared them from comming down to earth to kick ass and take names.

hahaha  True. Unless it's brood war. I still like that storyline. Just replayed C&C3 and i had the souvenir that when zergs... uh... when scrins arrive, it was an awesome twist and i was like : WTF ???? AWESOME !
But when i replayed it.. it was SO BAD lol. And acting sucks ass. Too bad i had a good memory of this (also it has the girl from doctor house)
But you are right. Story in video games are sometimes chep. You need to go to the "not mainstream" title. Like Overclocked had a really good story (2007ish click and point)

I'm also not buying this "teenager" argument when it comes to story.
I suppose 17-18 still counts as "teenager", but if ActiBlizzard is making mature rated games targeting a younger audience... isn't there some ethical problem here?
Reminds me of the Joe Camel mascot for camel cigarettes.

There are alway exceptions to dumb rules about Angels not being able to be awesome. They could be under the Gandalf rule: You can't do anything awesome unless someone else does something equally awesome.

That's more of a meaningless tautology.
