Diablo 3 is the latest in the beloved ''{{Diablo}}'' series. It's been twenty years since the Demonic Invasion was thwarted and the Worldstone destroyed, and Sanctuary has enjoyed relative peace and stability. However, Hellish forces are stirring again. All over the world are reports of horrors and atrocities. And a Fallen Star landing in Tristram marks the beginning of the end.

!!!The game features examples of:
*ApocalypicLog: Several lore books in the game are in this style, including[[spoiler: a record of Lachdanaan's final moments.]]
*AdiposeRex: Azmodan, the highest ranking demon alive, is extremely fat.
*AnAxeToGrind: Every class can wield one, and so do many of the enemies. Skeletal Executioners carry axes so large they have to drag them.
*TheBlacksmith: Haedrig. Even speaks in a thick accent like his predecessor, Griswold.
*CarryABigStick: Leoric has a flanged mace that's broader than his shoulders. Considering that he's already ten feet tall, and that's saying something.
*ChaosArchitecture: Tristram Cathedral. Previously a dark catacomb, it has become a sprawling underground complex complete with things like balconies. One wonders how the enormous open cavern doesn't collapse.
** Old Tristram, the Cathedral, and Adria's hut are also much farther from each other, and in different spots.
*CometOfDoom: The Fallen Star, which kicks off the game's plot.
*CrapsackWorld: The life of the average citizen in Sanctuary is pretty bad. Even without demons destroying your town, there is an abundance of bandits, dangerous wildlife, and crazy/incompetent rulers waiting to kill or eat you.
*DistressedDamsel: Inverted. It's the young and female Leah who wants you to rescue the elderly and male Deckard Cain.
*DoomedHometown: Demon Hunters are survivors of towns or caravans destroyed by demons.
*DualWielding: The Barbarian, naturally, and the Monk. The Demon Hunter can [[GunsAkimbo dual wield Crossbows.]]
*DummiedOut: The Mystic, who was going to be a player Artisan.
*EasterEgg: It's possible to find the corpse of Bishibosh, an early boss from Diablo II, inside the Den of the Fallen, which appears to be a Fallen Burial Ground.
*LudicrousGibs: Every enemy in the game can be exploded or dismembered in some way.
*MookMaker: Carrion Nests return from Diablo 3, and will produce all the Carrion Bats you could ask for.
** There are Iron Maidens that will endlessly spit out zombies until destroyed.
*RandomDrop: Every item. It's possible to get an extremely powerful weapon from a Mook or even a Barrel.
*RandomEvent: Much more so than the previous games. Such events include sudden ambushes, short sidequests, NPCs needing rescue, or even an enemy's ghost complaining that you killed him.
*SocketedItems: Socketed weapons and helms return, allowing the player to improve their stats with gems. The Jeweler artisan can add sockets to items for a fee, as well as remove/recover gems.
*StuffBlowingUp: There is a very high number of explosions in the game. Besides various player skills and spell causing explosions, monsters tend to blow up when killed as well. Sometimes this does damage to other monsters nearby, or to the player.
*TheUndead: Standard for the Diablo series.
*WakeUpCallBoss: Leoric, the Skeleton King. The buckets of hitpoints, lethal cleave attack, and ability to summon Mooks meant the player needs to utilize dodging, defense, and mitigation to succeed.
*WhatCouldHaveBeen: Blizzard has said that the Barbarian was originally a completely different class, but they realized that everyone would call him the Barbarian anyway and so went along with it.
*WhenTreesAttack: The Gnarled Walkers are explicitly [[InsistentTerminology not trees]], but monsters who took the form of trees to better ambush prey. The fact that they bleed growing green blood supports this claim.
