Maybe I missed it in the lore/story so apologies if that's the case. But what timeline is this game set in? Is it possible this is the first time they locked Mephisto in the soul stone? Like a D2 prequel?

It's a direct sequel to D3 - Cain is dead, Lorath says something off-hand about Diablo's recent fall.

Oh, that's right. I remember now Meshif talking about it as well. Thanks for the reminder

No, it's decades after Malthael decimated like half of humankind, which is one of the reasons why humans are struggling so much more now.

It occurs 50 years post Diablo III, unfortunately.

Nah they reference the world stone and invasion of the mountain (Ariat?) way too much.
