A Diablo game is a Diablo game, because you fight with Diablo, and (one way or another) you kill him. This is a fact. However, it has been stated, that D3 will close the current storyline, so it can be assumed, that Diablo will finally disappear, or not?
We will have the "basic" D3 and 2 planned expansions. I can't really imagine, that the final confrontation will not take place in the last expansion, yet it would be strange, if we couldn't beat Diablo in the "basic" D3.
So tell me, what do you guys think: When will diablo perish once, and for all? and: Will we fight against him more than once?
P.S.: If you have any (datamined) infromation, regarding this matter, feel free to share your ideas, but please put your comment in spoiler tags so it won't spoil the game for others.
I've always though that the Demons/Angels of Sanctuary could never actually be killed.
So my vote is ofc that he will live on.
Regarding your second poll I picked several times because lets face it even in Diablo 2 you could kill three different versions of Diablo (Diablo, Uber Diablo, and Pandemonium Diablo.
And since they're said that they will be MOST PROBABLY be adding small content patches sometimes between expansions, I really feel like we will meet him again.
Remember guys. this whole game is about hell vs heaven , So I mean , you can't have the ''Hell Lord'' Dead .. And even if he does get killed , someone else is gonna take his place.
Being the Lord of Terror, Diablo isn't really a mortal essence, rather the embodiment of a principle. His physical manifestation can be banished to different realms of being. But Diablo will always exist in some form or another, so long as terror exists in the hearts of mortals.
Well according to lore, Demons, and Angels can be killed. During the Third Sin War book The Veiled Prophet there is a huge battle that takes places in which both demons and angels are killed. Obviously these are the small demons and angels but if they can be killed then it would make sense that Demons of more power or angels of more power can be killed, It will just take more power to do so.
This is the end of the Diablo trilogy. So In Essence this is where the final battle will take place on sanctuary, or just in this lifetime. This has been stated by Jay Wilson in fact. I believe if there is a diablo 4 it could be on a different world other than Sanctuary because in the Sin War trilogy we learn there are other worlds other than sanctuary that have Guardians such as Trag'Oul that hide them from Heaven and Hell. So we can always visit those worlds in another game.
So at the end of Diablo 3 I expect to fight Diablo and then kill him but not before he can once again make the prime evils into Tathamet whom will then be the last expansion boss I believe.

Not even Death will save you from Diablo Bunny's Cuteness!
Diablo will die when the franchise is no longer profitable for Blizzard to continue, no matter how permanent his death looks, they'll find a way to bring him back time and time again.
If he's died once and came back a second time and died. He's most certainly capable of dying a third time and coming back a fourth time. Although blizz can do whatever they want with the lore so if they want him gone then they'll find a way to do it I'm sure.
