::''I am fortunate to be one of the lucky people who played the Diablo III demo showcased at BlizzCon 2008 in Anaheim. Not only was it a pleasure to play it, but left me craving for more. I decided to create a female [[Wizard]]. She spawns in the outskirts of the Tristram Woods where Captain Rumford and an armored warrior are piling up a bonfire of corpses. The warrior can be seen transporting the corpses off a wagon and into the bonfire.''
 
::''Captain Rumford says they are burning the corpses to prevent them from rising as [[undead]]. [[NPCs]] that have something to say have a black oval with dots hovering above them when you place the cursor over them.  A popup window displays the “introduction” option, feature that remains a constant from Diablo II. However, not only does each NPC talk to you.  Your very own character talks back, interacting with the NPCs.  By saying talk, I mean both: the NPC and your character have voice over actors adding emotion and life to the Action / RPG.''

Captain Rumford


Conversations[edit | edit source]

Conversations with NPCs can be had by clicking on them and selecting Talk from their menu. If they have something to say to you it will be listed. It's not indicated without clicking on them if they have a new conversation available.

Listening to some conversations can earn Achievements. None of the conversations with Villagers count towards an achievement.

Act 1[edit | edit source]

Tell me About Yourself

I volunteered to help because it seemed the right thing to do. But I'm no leader of men.

Witch Doctor: The spirits speak to all of us. Listen, and find guidances.

That's a simple thing for you to say. You were born to fight monsters like the risen dead. Me, I'm a farmer.


Captain Daltyn

When Leah told us the dead were pouring out of the cathedral, we quickly went to put an end to it. At first it seemed we were succeeding, but th-but they just kept coming. We -- well, we were overcome. Captain Daltyn and the men fought valiantly. They protected me. I am no soldier. I am -- I was a farmer. I should not have been out there with them.

I do not know how I made it back here. None of the others did. And now, somehow I'm supposed to lead the militia.
