Lilith is a 3d printed demon girl made out of flesh.

Cause they totally want to announce major story plots that want at as twist for us to discover.
It’s not like a writer has EVER not ONCE kept things hidden or fooled the audience to reveal a twist or cliff hanger.
I’m so done. Lol. Please stop.
Why would he lie about the story? If that was top secret and important plot point he wouldn’t say it, but I guess it’s all a big conspiracy to slip one false sentence about the Triune so they make us believe the guy in the trailer is just a cultist. Whatever makes you fell good buddy.
… Teases.
Foreshadowing…
… Definitions…

Doesn’t this add to the argument that he’s not Rathma? There’s speculation that the priest might be Malice. It’s still early in development so jumping to conclusions won’t really get you anywhere.
The cinematic alone sparked a lot of interest in Diablo’s lore. That’s a product of good writing in my opinion. Are you projecting some kind of insecurity?

Yawn, you guys are really boring. If you think so simply of the world, I can’t help you.
If your “logic” relies on logical fallacies (Look them up) and thinking that people’s opinions are this simple. I can’t help you.
But good attempt at trolling, you might make it some day.
Projecting again. Are you interested in discourse or just your feelings?

From wikipedia page of “Foreshadowing” :
"Foreshadowing is often confused with other literary techniques. Some of these techniques include:
- A “red herring”, is a hint that is designed to mislead the audience. However, foreshadowing only hints at a possible outcome within the confinement of a narrative, and purposely leads readers in the right direction."
I also watched a video about the topic and the “red herring” isn’t a lie. It raises a different issue that is irrelevant to the main subject. Can you can give me an example of an author/director/etc of a book/movie/game who plainly lied to make a better plot twist later?

One of the german CMs confirmed that it actually is Rathma …
He could be mistaken, but unless there is a official correction of this statement, I would say that the guy in the cinematic is Rathma, the son of Lilith and Inarius.
Edit: Oopsie, this Bluepost was indeed nothing official. He edited his posting to make it clear that the real identity of this guy is not revealed yet:
I might have been a little hasty posting here! In fact, I was only resorting to my own nerd-knowledge and wasn’t aware at the moment of eagerness that my blue writing might suggest more. For now, the identity of this ominous gatekeeper remains a mystery~

Maybe lilith is one of the few possible allies of humanity left.

It sounds like the pale guy is Malic.
Interesting. Most likely this guys is legit, since he is a Blizzard employee, so it’s Rathma, but then why would a dev at the Blizzcon lore panel say that the Triune brings her to Sanctuary? One of them is lying or both are saying the truth and Rathma, for some reason, became evil and teamed up with the Triune. Or maybe he didn’t turn evil, but infiltrated the Triune from the inside to fulfill some greater plan. This brings so many possibilities

Having a demon turn good/sympathetic is the type of cartoon writing I’d expect from Diablo 3, not from the true Diablo games.
His given name was Linarian, Rathma was given to him by the dragon o.O

Demons were never always evil and he heaven was never always good.

The term lost it’s meaning, because of GoT and Dumb & Dumber.

Well in Diablo 2 Izual had turned bad, via corruption, so if an Angel can go dark, I don’t see why a demon can’t turn good. That said, even if Lilith turns out to be an ally for the player’s character, I expect it’ll only be for the intention of furthering her goals instead of for ours sake.
Didn’t know that this type of “plot twist” is a thing. I don’t watch GoT, but they could’ve let the big battle scene suggest that something bad is gonna happen to the army of dudes without some guy from the GoT team explaining that the scene shows their end. It dumbs the whole story telling to something like “Its a prank bro”.
Guess time will tell who the pale guy in D4 trailer is.
I got a trick, which served me well so far…
I have very low expectation of Blizzard’s “deep and meaningful story”
And they met them at every turn! 
This way I am never disappointed, and sometimes surprised!
