I admit, I didn&#8217;t see the magical robots coming.

With that as the case, one thing I&#8217;d really like to see is a season based around Tristram and the Tristram Cathedral. We could explore the ruined structure, fight the various abominations created by the Skeleton King and Archbishop Lazarus &#8212; we\u00a0 know the guy was experimenting on evil spider monsters when he wasn&#8217;t conspiring to have the Queen beheaded for treason so that he could implant a Demon Lord in the King&#8217;s youngest son, he had a lot of interests. And since Lazarus was a servant of Mephisto, who&#8217;s going to be a big deal in the first <em>Diablo 4<\/em> expansion, I think a season themed about learning more about how Lazarus served his master could be pretty cool.<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, what I really want to see is\u00a0<em>D4<\/em> taking the opportunity with season themes to really expand Sanctuary and the stories told in it. We have these quests each season, but we can&#8217;t really see much in terms of ongoing story that&#8217;s relevant to the game. I get that might feel like more of an expansion thing, but I think exploring parts of the world through seasons would be a good use of the way the themes add in new lore and ideas for the game. Maybe that&#8217;s just me, though.<\/p>\n<p>So what do you think? Do you have any ideas for season themes in\u00a0<em>Diablo 4<\/em>, and if so, what are they?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diablo 4 Seasons have been about a new plague of malignant demons, vampires, and soon magical robots made by Zoltun Kulle.
