Lore Discussion – Lilith’s Return or Something Worse?
So with Season 8 being Diablo 4 items dubbed “Descent into Deception,” I can't help but wonder what this means for the lore. We’ve danced with darkness before, but the word deception makes me think of trickery, illusions, or maybe even betrayal from within. Could this mean someone we’ve trusted is turning against us?
Some are speculating that Mephisto’s influence will deepen, or maybe a lesser evil takes center stage. There are whispers of a new cult-like faction luring adventurers into their fold—only to lead them to madness. Maybe we’re being manipulated to do the bidding of a darker power, one that hides behind false truths.
And what if Lilith isn’t gone? What if she left seeds of doubt, corruption, or even clones of herself? Blizzard has done wild twists before—anyone remember what they did with Malthael in Reaper of Souls?
I’m personally hyped to see if Season 8 brings any campaign-style questlines that shed light on these mysteries. Diablo’s strength has always been the mix of action with meaningful, dark narrative.
