The problems with Diablo 3's story are myriad. Its very one dimensional, you can predict the entire story from Act I onward. There is little to no subtlety, with them spelling out every bad guy's inner thoughts in their dialog. Plus there are some rather large gaping plot holes. This pretty much sums up the entire story in a hillarious manner (deleted by Blizzard).

This wouldn't be so bad if Diablo 3 wasn't about the story. HOWEVER, when you read the interviews with the game designers, or see their replies on the forums, you quickly see that... in their eyes... Diablo 3 is about the story. Hence why there's no "Skip Boring Cut-scene" check box in the options dialog. Forcing you to manually escape those annoying boss cut-scenes.
