This is interesting to me, because I always figured the Diablo series was prized for its moment-to-moment gameplay, rather than for its story or cinematics.

Blizzard cinematics have always set a high bar. The WoW expansion teasers are always phenomenal.
Their cinematics are pretty, but their plot is basically “spin the roulette wheel to find out which protagonist catches The Corruption.”
They were pretty but I mostly just wished to skip them..
Or just Warcraft III
What? The cinematics are absolutely incredible. Would definitely pay to watch a full Diablo movie.
Pretty much this +1 it was less about story or cinematics. I really enjoyed the build dynamics in D2
