OK,

I don't get this. Nihlathak struck a deal with Baal to protect Harrogath, yet, somehow, Nihlathak is in control of a bunch of demons and has his own sanctuary. What the hell? Did Baal give him this? Why? Why should Baal? Nihlathak just wanted to protect Harrogath, not a fortress of his own.

There probably is a reasonable explanation, I just haven't found it.

Thanks,

A Diablo 2 expansion would be cool too, Act 6 anybody? But, according to the timeline, all expansions fit into current games. SC Brood War, WoW Burning Crusade, D2 LOD, so, I don't think it's an expansion of any sort. A whole new product.

If Diablo 3 had an expansion that would ROCK too because then we'd have to wait AGAIN and I never go to wait for the Diablo 2 expansion.

Heh!

SC2? No! I don't want SC2. Still, if it isn't Diablo III, I'd want Starcraft 2 next, ANYTHING NOT RELATED TO WARCRAFT! Warcraft is getting annoying.

Diablo III would be bomb.

Guys, the images in the GFX is nothing, I can't see anything. They are just images. No teasers. JUST images. I can't wait until the 19th!

Just for more days.

Depending on the original post, I'd have to say it's not Starcraft 2 (I don't care much about Starcraft or #2, if it comes out, great! If it doesn't, oh well)

I hope for Diablo III, but, depending on the circumstances, I'd think it'd be something with WoW or a new Blizzard product. Even though I would LOVE for it to be Diablo III and if asked would scream "GOD YES!" It just doesn't seem plausible. I think if it will be announced, it would be at Blizzcon, even though I would want it announced NOW and if it is being announced now then HALLEULJAH!

When the three were sealed off, Tal Rasha was the container for Baal, the Lord of Destruction, the Warrior Hero in Diablo I was the body for Diablo, the Lord of Terror; and Sankekur, the new Que-Hegan of the High Council, was the embodiment for Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred.

These three could end up suffering, an old legend said that "anyone slain by a demon would float in space and suffer forever", technically, Diablo had destroyed the Wanderer who was in Diablo I and lodged the soulstone into his forehead after killing Diablo. The Wanderer, like King Leoric, had fought Diablo, but, the powers of Mephisto destroyed what little bit of Wanderer was left of him when Diablo was performing the summoning ritual with the Baal consumed Tal-Rasha and Mephisto and Diablo transformed into his original true form. The same is for the Tal-Rasha consumed Baal, the observations recorded on King Leoric on how he became insane from Diablo could have caused Tal-Rasha to go insane with rage while battling Baal for all those years mummified. His hatred and the fact he was consumed by Baal could draw out his old self was technically destroyed, and by the time Baal was killed by the hero in Diablo II, he had already mutilated the mummified Tal-Rasha into his original looks, just like Mephisto had done with Sankekur and Diablo with the Wanderer.

Judging from my observations, Tal-Rasha, the hero from Diablo I; the Wanderer, and Sankekur (he was destroyed first and foremost, probably the worst way) could come back as demonic spirits (whether or not possessed by Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto or not).

It also turns out Mephisto had two children, Lilith and Lucion (which would make Mephisto the Grampy of Andariel! How cute.) These two could be possible antagonists in Diablo III (if it comes out) along with, obviously, Belial and Azmodon.

Guilt and things of that sort had also drove Nihlathak to insanity, his guilt of not dying with the other elders, which drove him to giving the Relic of the Ancients to Baal, who in turn used it to get past the Arcients on the Arreat Summit unchallenged and into the Worldstone. Perhaps people like Nihlathak who were tortured by guilt and other things could arise.

Ultimately, there is nothing we can do about it, we just have to wait to see if the WoW crazed Blizzard decides to lick another flavor of popsicles (metaphorically speaking).

I believe Heaven does not care MUCH about the Mortal Realm, but, if Hell is going to manifest it, it needs to interfere. The Mortal Realm is the main source of power, mortals are more powerful than either side imagines, if one side can take control, then that side has control. The Archangel Tyrael realized this and decided to help the mortals to stop the Prime Evils.

Tyrael is a good, but, rather defiant Angel. I doubt he would have anything to do with it.

Also, as Cain as the evil doer, he's a old decripit man wearing adult diapers identifying peoples items. What could HE do? He even states himself he led a scholarly life and not one of sorcerey.

I anticipate if Wirt comes back he'll take his peg-leg back from the cows and beat the Prime Evils into submission with it and take over hell, only to be challenged by Chuck Norris and creating The Ultimate Showdown 2. :rolleyes:
