A new threat is corrupting Sanctuary.#DiabloIV Season of the Malignant is coming July 20th. Will you be ready?Visit diablo.com to test your fate in #DiabloIV...
Lilith got way too much of a minor role to name the game after her. She’s a minor villain at best and already dead after a short campaign where we once again make weird ass stupid decisions. I wish we could’ve joined her, instead of her becoming another cartoon villain that makes people mindless and insane for “reasons”. Even her becoming a prime evil would’ve been a way cooler move. But now they fired that bullet and it’s never going to be able to come back. Real shame for such an iconic figure in the history of the game lore.
where she traps you in your mind, I was like…no, I don’t want to say no to you. Let’s break the fucking cycle and actually DEAL with the prime evils instead of just doing the same old soulstone trick. But alas, it’s not that type of game.
Only way I can justify it: Mephisto is a prime evil. Lilith a lesser evil. Both clearly already have influence over the entire party. Mephisto manipulating the hero into imprisoning him has to be part of his game plan.
Killing Lilith and imprisoning Mephisto is really the only logical choice. You were really going to side with a Lesser Evil, the daughter of Hatred, and think it was going to be all dandy candy?
I have no reason why they would let a child walk around with a prime evil soulstone though lmao.
Lilith isn’t a lesser evil. And yes, I’d side with the one power that actually wants to fight for Sanctuary instead of being just caught between the two bullies of the eternal conflict, which already brought humankind to almost extinction. But besides her motives, I just would’ve found it so much more exciting to have a new force like this in the game / lore, one that isn’t just your stereotypical angel or demon.
Why we let Neyrelle go off like that? I don’t know. One of the many stupid things in the story. I also don’t know why Lorath told Inarius about the soul stone and even showed it to him. Or why we told Elias about his lacking immortality instead of just dealing the death blow for a last time. It’s all not quite as bad as the bullshit from D3 but I am really not a fan of what they did with the story. With the MMO aspects they could’ve even introduced factions. Let people join Lilith (could’ve been an introduction of the Lilin in D4), or Inarius, and have their forces mangle it out in team based pvp zones, or helltide like open world events with lots of NPC enemies that maybe even take over ownership of the settlements. Both factions could’ve been used to also unlock specific classes, like some holy warrior class for the cathedral of light and something else for the followers of Lilith. But I guess we rather do stupid weird seasonal paid FOMO events.
