I think there's quite a unanimous opinion that the story sucks... Blizzard hasn't been able to cook up a good story for a while and some things might as well be considered references to their other games just to throw a positive spin on things, since it's just that bad.
But like SC nobody cares about it, it's all about the gameplay; albeit in D3 on the singleplayer side rather then the multiplayer side in SC. The only stories I give a damn are the lore books, a small side stories that you have to work to find. The Lord of Goats one was my favorite so far. They should have just had way way less main character pampering and just scattered story pieces for you to find in the world (and yes I know they hide a book after each quest). The quest stories are also a great improvement on the questing system.
