MedievalDragon, what's the story with the Email? Have they got back to you yet? I am running out of patients------ the emperor is not as forgiving as I am.

What is normal? Normal is a concept that everyone or a majority of people are the same or similar. However, we know that everyone is unique. If everyone is unique, then everyone is different. If everyone is different, then everyone is weird. If everyone is weird, then everyone is normal.
Do you by any chance know the magnitude of this new patch? If not, then from pure speculation what is your opinion on it? Do you think that the patch is Blizzards way of adding a new twist to the story that leaves an obvious opening for Diablo 3? Minor fixes + added new bit of story, or a major overhaul + new bit of story?
Thanks in advanced.

Good observation. Act 4 does seem kind of empty & incomplete. Only 2 way-points, 3 including the town one. I always found that odd. All the other acts, including 5 are complete with 8 way-points, 9 if you include the town one. Though that also might be related to the other expansion that was planned, "D2: Salvation", and then later abandoned.

and when you think about it. you probably couldve gone to another place in hell. but with azmodon and beliel having a civil war. you probably wouldve gotten killed within the second. thousands of demons in one little area having a war. oh boy dont get into the middle of that.
How many places could you really have gone in hell. They'd all be the same and you'd get sick of it.
As it is, most people skip as much of A4 as possible.
That's because its convenient to do so.. Most people skip as much as possible of pretty much any act when they figure the game out, and are out to lvl their character... Act 4 just makes char lvl'ing even easier. As for the reason behind it having 2 waypoints, its anyones quess. It just as easily could have been like any other act, a complete act with 8-waypoints. I don't think that anyone would have complained about a few extra quests. An extra boss possibly? Could have made the game even better.
However, for whatever reason they obviously had other plans for it, act 4.. Was it the "D2: Salvation" expansions that was abandoned, the new patch, or some other reason??.. We may find out soon with the new patch, or on the other hand we just might never...

I think the only reason Act 4 seems incomplete is because the original Diablo 2 might not have had enough memory left on the disks to put more on it. They might have had more planned but scrapped it because of the costs of adding even one more disk (and remember they didn't have DVD's back then, just CD's.) That would make sense if you take in to consideration that the two merchants in Act 4 didn't even get voices, in fact, they say nothing. In any case, Jetrall is probably right. What more of Hell could you possibly see that wouldn't be redundant?
And about the civil war thing and all the demons- you kill thousands of demons all throughout Act 4, I don't think that would be TOO much of a problem. They could always make it some new Pandemonium Event, that would be cool

This by far makes most sense. I'll run with it..:D

Yea, it does make sense. But why would they take quests out of Act 4? It's Diablo after all, the prime objective is supposed to be to get to Diablo and slay his ugly ass. Why not take 1 quest out of A1, A2, and A3?

The prime objective is to finish the game, is it not? Which is beating baal... three times... the EXACT same thing except harder.
I think you got the point of the game wrong Link >.>
Thats the expansion. The original antagonist is Diablo, aka the Dark Wanderer. Baal was a side antagonist as a result from the main antagonist, Diablo, freeing him. Then when the main antagonist was defeated, the side antagonist became the main one. Aka, Baal was originally not a fightable enemy, but then when Diablo was defeated and everything seemed okay, he kind of jumped out at us.
Really, the main point of the game is just to defend Sanctuary.
Lol yes Halbu and Jamella said 4 or 5 words. But there was no such option as 'gossip' for them.
