(Dying Moment of Awesome is NOT a YMMV trope)
Line 6:
** Most of the [[Leitmotif|Leitmotifs]], especially [[Tear Jerker|Deionarra's]].
* [[Cult Classic]]: Essentially doomed to this, given that about seven months after this game came out, [[Diablo|a sequel to a much simpler and more popular game came out]].
** It didn't help that combat, ''Diablo II's''s bread and butter, tended to feel like an afterthought in this game.
* [[Dying Moment of Awesome]]: {{spoiler|Your party members, when they try to put up a fight against the Transcendent One. Particularly Fall-from-Grace, who ''actually manages to damage him''.}}
* [[Epileptic Trees]]: The plot itself can give birth to umpteen, but in-game dialogue mentions an all-time great: that the Lady Of Pain, mysterious and godlike ruler of Sigil, who can banish lawbreakers to endless, eternal mazes (or just kill them by casting a shadow made of thousands of magical blades) for crimes like murder, treason or daring to worship her, is actually six giant squirrels wearing a cloak, a ring of levitation and an illusion spell.
** A popular fan one is that the Nameless One's original incarnation is Zerthimon. Despite the fact that the Nameless One appears as a human male, albeit covered in scars (not only on screen, but characters who bring up the Nameless One's appearance also describe him this way), and the game's creators have [[Word of God|outright said]] that, while they don't * know* who he was, they '''do''' * know* who he was not, and he was '''not''' Zerthimon.
