Diablo music soundtracks are all about the guitar, but Blizzard is changing that

This is one of the most distinctive and powerfully evocative musical identities in gaming. It just is Diablo. It does so much to set the series’ dark fantasy setting apart from the high-fantasy grandeur of contemporaries like Warcraft and The Elder Scrolls. It’s mournful, personal, ancient and modern at the same time, rooted in vague, mysterious folklore rather than Toklienesque saga.
