I mean Hell, Tyreal with Marius was more of a surprise then the Dark Wanderer.
There wasn't anything subtle nor was there a need for it. You are a Hero, you kill monsters, and that is all you need to know. The first 2 games was left with that. Diablo 3 attempts to make a more cohesive story with more of a reason your Character is there. In actuality, if they left it with the same style, the game was have been GREAT! I think it's mediocre.
The whole of Act 3 with Azmodan is hilarious, I like when the Barb says, I have defeated you on the Wall, in the Cellar, and now destroyed your Siege weapons, next is you. Then he is like HEUEUEUEUE we will see! It's not great story telling, but it doesn't really need to be.
