By the end of Diablo III it contained all seven Evils. We already know that the Black Soulstone was devised to trap both angels and demons. In the midst of playing it, however, the ending becomes a little obvious.

We discover more along the way, including the whereabouts of the witch Adria, though all of it serves as build-up to the Act’s conclusion. It’s a simple albeit short story, setting us on a direct patch to the Angel of Death himself. By virtue of defeating the Lords of Hell and showing a capability for evil, Malthael concluded that humans – descendants of Nephalem, half angel and demon – are the last great demonic forces left in the conflict. It doesn’t take long before we encounter Tyrael, who divulges his brother’s plan on wiping out humanity. The game begins in the city of Westmarch, already besieged by Malthael’s forces. Once again our hero is called to action, and so begins our journey into Act V. With his own plans on how to end the Great Conflict between the High Heavens and Burning Hells, he steals the Black Soulstone during its containment. We’ve returned because the missing Archangel of Wisdom, Malthael, has reappeared as the Angel of Death.

Blizzard Entertainment’s Diablo III: Reaper of Souls checks out on both accounts, making the return to Sanctuary a much more welcome one.

Expansions are a means to not only add content, but to improve on the overall gameplay experience as well.
