Agreed, but to be honest I believe the Act 1 end cinematic makes up for it (you know, Leah realizing it wasn't all just stories and deciding to follow his legacy).
I agree with you in that regards. Although Cain's death was disappointing. The cinematic was really heartwarming. Showing Leah truly grieving for her Uncle and the sacrifices that he made for her and everything. Who knows, they could always come out with an extended scene of Maghda fighting Cain. Probably not, but one can hope.
Unfortunately, I do have to agree with you. I personally feel that Cain's death was somewhat anti-climactic. I have not played Diablo 1 or 2, so as you can probably deduce, Diablo 3 was my first introduction to Cain and the world of Diablo. With that said, even in that short time during Act 1, when Cain was still alive, I became very fond of his character. I enjoyed listening to his journals and the stories he had regarding his relationship with Leah. I actually skipped the cinematic part where Maghda killed Cain the first time (obviously not having any idea that it was going to happen) and then all of a sudden he was dead and I was very confused. So I went back to the part where he died and I was very disappointed in how quickly it went by. If Cain were to die, I would have expected the characters to try and save him, as they did in the Cathedral, or be frozen in place or prevented in some other type of way from helping him and Leah.
For the most part, I think the game has been made exceptionally well and I enjoy most of the story line. It's just that Cain's death sequence leaves me wanting something more, not sure what but just.... something, we all know it's too late now to do anything about it, but it is nice to know that some others feel the same way.
