Bringing back the Butcher is fucking cheap ass lame.
Okay, so you don't need to even contrive a reason to bring the infamous Butcher back, right? I mean, they're demons and they can all come back whenever they want.
It's just a stupid way to cash in on our nostalgia. The Butcher was special in D1. Anyone who didn't play D1 couldn't understand why. They didn't bring him back in D2. Things were more sacred then, such as our memories. It was stupid enough they brought back the Skeleton King and he had the same line about the whole warmth of life in my tomb thing but which sounds lame somehow in D3.
And they made references to the Butcher in Warcraft 3 and I think...WoW. So yes, we get it. The Butcher existed. I totally get it! But why sully our awesome memories of him by just throwing him in the game? He'll never be as terrifying as he was in the first game so to make him reappear would just be fucking cheap.
It's like the goddamn Wirt's Leg reference. Leave that shit to rest already. Stop abusing people's goodwill with stale jokes. And if you put the Butcher in D3, it's gonna be such an affront to fans of the original game. And I totally embrace D3 so you can't accuse me of just being some crazy ass D1 loyalist. I'm just saying, you don't need to make references to EVERY thing that existed just for the sake of nostalgia.
I even got mad in the Eastern Sun mod when Lachdanan appeared in Act 4. I was like, "No! We killed him. We saved his soul. Just let him rest now!"
