I had a low day and thought I’d do some D4 when it hit me, these are depressing stories! Everyone I look for is dead! Even some I speak to in begining end up dead by the time I get back! They’re well written, just sad. I reunited a guy and his goat. A goat passed out after eating too much salt. Salt made from AN ENTIRE VILLAGE!! Guess I should’ve watched Ted Lasso instead?
In Diablo, humans are always fodder for the Eternal Conflict. Even the main character that defeats the prime evils in one game is consumed/killed by the start of the next one. This is the way.
I suggest Skyrim if you want a good mix of stories and NPCs that actually go about a regular life in the world.
This is why Lilith made a lot of sense to me. She was the main villain of this game, yet seemed like the least evil option in this universe. Kinda curious how many players would’ve sided with her if this was an rpg with choices.
