I have been following discussions for awhile and have not seen this idea thrown around yet. Maybe others disagree with this appraoch as it is less emersive, but anyways. Similar to what they are adding in the Arena gameplay mode makes me believe they can offer other gameplay modes in future updates/etc. I would think a hold the line style (waves with mini bosses/final boss) would be an interesting element to see in a map (included in the main or as an additional mode unlocked at cap or something, similar to this would be dungeons). In Diablo 2 obviously at end game the same thing is done over and over again, it would be nice to see content unlocked/progressed as you reach cap, similar to end game content of mmos (So you are not just rehashing the same thing through the difficulty modes). Anyways I know they have not released much on it, besides them having ideas on what they want to do. Maybe other people could throw around some ideas or suggestions that they have thought of?
I can say with almost certainty that there will be a part in-game similar to this. At Bastion's keep, there was mention of the demons attacking and you would have to hold them off.
As for it being a separate mode, it would be nice if they included that and maybe 4 more options as mini-games to do. The end game content I think is something that is baffling all of us and we are very excited to see what they have planned.

I liked how Warhammer did their scenario type spawned instances. It was something you could do when you where not questing. You could include some kind of machanic like this with these types of matches. Hold the line, cap the flag, other little fun instances to add to the fun.
