Trivia

The game treats The Dark Lord (aka Diablo), the final boss, as a regular enemy rather than a boss monster. He has no catchphrase (ala the Butcher's "Fresh Meat"), his name appears in white instead of gold, and if you kill him enough times (by starting a new game with the same character) the game will even show you his stats.
