Can't believe he dies
Guess they didn't want him to return for the expansion or diablo 4 : /.

I hope it was at least a clean quick death. Given what he has done for humanity dying peacefully in bed seems too much to ask but a gruesome death is beneath a man like him.

It seems he was injured from the minions.. I mean really!?
I character that big dying dying to that? What a slap in the face......

Honestly, they had no right doing that to Cain. He's a staple of the Diablo series. It would be like Princess Peach being killed by a sleeping piranha plant.

It is tying up loose ends, Blizzard already stated that the story arc from the first 3 Diablo's ends with D3(and expansions).

Yeah, the way he died was pretty nasty, I haven't encountered Maghda yet in person but I'm hoping that she'll suffer a very gruesome fate for what she did.
But I'm also shocked that Blizzard killed him off just like that, I guess they couldn't see him living for another decade or two to chronicle the events of Diablo IV.

And now you know why you just right+click to identify items instead of bringing them to him.

He got replaced by his little red riding hood relative.

Dude was old in D2, must have been ancient by now. Had to die sometime.
It will be funny if once you get to act 4 Leah says "stay awhile and listen..." every time you talk to her.
Oh, and she grows an epic beard.

I was pretty annoyed by his death.
It was so incredibly anti-climactic and lame. Couldn't they have him go out in a blaze of glory or something? It was more like, "Oh they dead now but I'm gonna die too so...I guess I'll see ya later."
Except he was an old man...he was just making records of things, he wasn't some all-powerful warrior.

I found the ease of his death to be a little odd. The guy just got blasted by a falling star, fell several stories through a fiery hole, held his own against some skeletons and got along just fine.

He comes back to life.

Well D4 is supposed to be set 40,000 years in a dark and grim future filled only with war.
Guess they are tying up loose ends.

Yeah, I don't know how they could've made it any more anti-climatic. Cain dying should be something that really affects the player, but instead it had all the weight of "oh, well, I'm dead now." /dies

As someone who had the story ruined for him, trust me it gets way way way worse.
