I’m actually surprised, since Blizzard has often been rather… odd with their lore support.  They’ll trickle out info regarding the lore of their future games, while at the same time shrugging off years of requests for a lore portion of their WoW forums.  They’ll prioritize game mechanics over lore, which is fine, but then suddenly give lore priority under weird circumstances.  Example?  They balked at the idea of gender specific classes for Night Elves in WoW (something that only affects aesthetics), then turned around and restricted druids to only using roots outside (a lore based nerf, which frankly made no sense).  Roots in a cave?!  Nonsense!

To get back to Diablo 3 though, take a look, it’s done as a book read completely out loud by Deckard Cain, with the cinematics from Diablo 2.
