Okay, the Mass Hallucination rune for Mass Confusion does not have its damage scale based on your DPS. It has its damage scale based on your attack speed.
One, small, tiny story change could have made everything better (except the ending cinematic, dear god that was awful, and well below Blizzard's normal standards). Diablo's essence shouldn't actually be in the soulstone yet. Adria should have sacrificed Leah, then used the soulstone on herself to become Diablo/Prime Evil. You still get the fun twist of "Holy shit she just destroyed her own daughter" with something fewer people would have seen coming, and it would have been a bit darker than cheesy "dark Leah" showing up at the gates of Heaven.
Ending cinematic change to Imperius kicking Tyreal and the Player out of Heaven, and claiming the Black Soulstone for himself, and close it out with Heaven declaring war on Sanctuary.
I didn't think of this but honestly this just proves that they could have done pretty much anything else with the story and it would have been better.
I would have been just as happy if Adria had shown up in an epilogue. That's what made Diablo 2's ending actually good. It's the part people remember. Just destroying the soul stones and leaving hell was a boring ending that nobody would have remembered.
I mean, there is a scene where the game basically says ADRIA PLEASE GO AWAY NOW SO YOU CAN BE A LOOSE END AND FUEL OUR EXPANSION. It's glaringly obvious.
Honestly, I wouldn't have cared even if Adria showed up. Adria, Leah, and Tyrael were just cardboard cut outs with nothing interesting about them. Marius, though, he actually felt like an old desperate man. He actually had some depth and honesty to him, and the mystery of the guy talking to him was fantastic. The way the entire plot of the game is told through flashbacks, a mystery on top of a mystery. What's happening to the wanderer? Where is he going? Why did Marius end up in the ward? Is that actually Tyrael talking to him, and if not, who is it? All of those questions were what kept me going in D2, on top of the atmosphere and gameplay. When Diablo finally emerged from the wanderer, I remember being horrified but also kind of pissed. I played as that dude in D1 and Diablo not only just killed him, but made him into a puppet. "This shit just got personal", my 11 year old brain thought. What made it worse is that Diablo didn't even give a shit. He never spoke a word or was even aware of my existence, because he was just that fucking evil.
But that's the thing. Baal did fuck all for the whole of Diablo 2, but he gets a single scene at the end and suddenly he's a huge badass that nobody can wait to kill.
They could have done something with Adria. Give her a motivational twist. Have her secretly have been a fallen angel, or meet up with any of a half dozen big deal characters that weren't involved with the plot (the Diablo EU is full of them). Hell, it could have just been, like, Mephisto lurking in a dark room talking about how now it's his turn. How or why he's suddenly alive doesn't even matter because that's the hook for the expansion anyway.
It could have been the godamn Cow King all pissed that his herds were all slaughtered. The problem is that Diablo 3's story is pat. It does too good a job of wrapping everything up.
And yet it also wraps nothing up!
All the evils are free again! For all of Diablo 2 and 3 they go on about having to put the evils in a soulstone to truly trap/vanquish them. And in the end you stop Diablo from destroying the high heavens, but then you just destroy his physical form again. So all the evils are free to reform and shit is more fucked than it was at the beginning of Diablo 1.
Tyreal lets it slip that you can't permanently kill either side -- he blew himself up with the Worldstone, and it only took him ~20 years to bring himself back from the beyond.
Which actually reminds me of another slight thing that's niggling at me:
In that case, what does that mean for smashing Mephisto and Diablo's soulstones on the Hellforge, then? Then again, considering Tyreal's history of fuck-ups it's not too inconcievable that he could be that stupid as to inadvertantly order the D2 heroes to free Diablo and Mephisto again.
I kind of figured that the expansion would revolve around (Act 4 Spoilers)
The missing Angel of Wisdom who went mad and disappeared when the Worldstone was stolen and he didn't know what happened to it. A lot of the lore in Act 4 talked about him going missing and how his spot was vacant on the council. I kind of figured it might be a subtle story hook for a future expansion in which an angel is the bad guy.

Apparently smashing Mephisto and Diablo's Soulstones on the Hellforge should have sent them to some place called the Abyss where they presumably would be very unhappy and unable to escape from (the Worldstone explosion destroyed Baal's Soulstone, accomplishing the same thing for him). However, since Adria apparently marked all of the Evils with some kind of spell, instead of being sent to the Abyss, they were instead transferred to the Black Soulstone when their first Soulstones were destroyed.
Not sure how that works when Adria had never even seen the Black Soulstone at that point (and it wasn't even finished yet anyways?), but that seems to be what they were saying happened.
Now all seven Evils are in the Black Soulstone, which is conveniently falling down to Sanctuary (I assume that's where you go when you fall from Heaven, since that's where Tyrael fell to, though I guess really that doesn't make much sense considering how long it took for Heaven/Hell to even find Sanctuary). I'd give the Soulstone very good odds of landing in Ureh (which is in the jungle) for the expansion.
Edit, regarding angels:
The Book of Cain had some kind of prophecy in it regarding the angels, and it mentions Wisdom vanishing and Hope being consumed by Despair (Auriel was captured by Rakkanoth, Lord of Despair) and such. However, I don't think the lines about Imperius and the Angel of Fate have come true yet (unless you count two quick cutscenes of Imperius yelling at you as "Valor turns to Wrath").

Tristram is the name of the town, yes. Sanctuary is the name of the World/Planet that Tristram is a part of.
Oooooh, for some reason I was thinking Sanctuary was your base/town in Act 4 of Diablo 2. I....I may have thought this game took place on earth or whatever. In my defense, Ive never played D1.
Oh. My. God. How can you discuss this without going mad? SoulstoneWorldstoneBlackstone... WisdomJusticeValorDespairTerrorBedwetting. The writer must have sounded like suffering from Tourette (no offense) in a meeting regarding the plot. I think people in the world of Sanctuary should just commit mass suicide, because whichever Pebble they banish the evil into proves useless anyway. And if it's not malfunctioning Pebbles that set once, twice, maybe even thrice vanquished evils free, it's the "unjustly slain being resurrected" - with a VERY questionable definition of "unjustly" (Leoric, really? THE BUTCHER, REALLY?).
Blizzard... Oh, Blizzard.
I implore someone to do a YouTube video regarding the story. If done right, I believe it could be so. fucking. hilarious.

I thought that
Ureh was covered in the novel Kingdom of Shadow? Was supposed to be one of the most pious cities on earth until the leader Juris Khan was led astray by Diablo again, deciding to cast some spell that was supposed to send it to Heaven but in reality sent it to Hell. Wasn't it destroyed at the end of the novel with the help of Zayl? I thought that was pretty conclusive really.
Tristram is the name of the town, yes. Sanctuary is the name of the World/Planet that Tristram is a part of.
Oooooh, for some reason I was thinking Sanctuary was your base/town in Act 4 of Diablo 2. I....I may have thought this game took place on earth or whatever. In my defense, Ive never played D1.
Given how often the world is ravaged by demons, zombies, and other forms of destruction, I can only imagine that it was given that name ironically.
I just started to notice something when I get disconnected by error 3007 (which happens a lot). After I'm knocked back to the main menu and presented with the "you've been disconnected" button/window, in the top-right corner of the screen I see a banner that tells me I can buy my way to level 60 instantly by clicking the "upgrade" button on the banner. I can't interact with it because of the disconnected window, of course. What's the deal with that? Google brings up nothing.

That's what appears on the banner when you play Starter Edition (uses the same install as the full game, but a limited free license that came with Diablo 3 boxed copies). It's not so much buying your way to level 60 as it is lifting the level 13 cap on the Starter Edition and allowing you to progress to the max level of 60.

That makes sense. Since I have the full game it seemed like it was telling me I could instantly buy myself to 60 and I was getting concerned I was either hacked or Blizzard was going to pull a Battlefield 3.

And speaking of error 3007, is there anything I can do to prevent it? I'm getting disconnected all the fucking time.
I tried praying, didn't work. Not really playing it much more this morning after being unable to finish even a single questline as I get disconnected every time.
Did they literally make critical mass stop working?

Well, force armor does work as long as you stack a fair amount of vit/armor/resists. Problem is finding int/vit/res/ another good stat pieces with high armor at the moment, almost impossible.

I have no problem with that option if they provide them with average gear or even no gear. The best gear would need to farmed or bought at the AH. It would save time and you could concentrated on the farming.
Wizards still have probably the best kit for handling inferno. And 'probably' is only there cause I'm not sure how good demon hunters are now. Prismatic Armor is a nice alternative to Force Armor (which is still really, really good), and either of them makes wizards pretty durable. In addition to the stupidly good escapes.
I'm kind of running into a wall in act 3 though. I even tried the crit build yesterday before it was apparently removed, and apart from being boring it also seemed to be incapable of handling a molten ranged pack of mobs.
Not sure how to proceed apart from farming a bit more and building up vit/res/armor while keeping dps at around at least 30k.

The templar yells it at jondar the templar turned necromancer you encounter with him.
If I had to guess it's funny because it's similar to a line yelled equally hammily at the end of the star wars pre-quels.
Or maybe it's just funny because it's such a hammy line.

"...only mights and maybes."
Between that and Force Armor's reliance on enemy stats, it's like they're trying to tell me I can't solo Inferno without dying a million times.
So the plan is to form a tight group, but all my friends are either still in nightmare/hell or they're instakilled by zombies in Act 1. Lovely.
I have no problem with that option if they provide them with average gear or even no gear. The best gear would need to farmed or bought at the AH. It would save time and you could concentrated on the farming.
Tell that to Barbarians and Witch Doctors who get instakilled by the Butcher's harpoon!
Poor barbarians, WDs and monks though :<
