As the title states, I'm wanting to get into D2, but I'm finding trying to get into the story line is so messed up. I didn't play D1 at all either. I'm wondering just for simplicity sake, if I just read up on all the story stuff up until the Beyond Light expansion (cause I do want to know it), and just take it from there. In the interim I could just mess with classes/specs, understand the systems, do the Halloween stuff etc.
I know I can go back and play the start of D2 to some degree, but when in the story campaign I'm not supposed to be able to get to the traveler, when in reality I can, it's just not a cohesive story telling experience. I'm sure the rest of the journey to get up to speed (if I even have time before BL) would be the same.
Thoughts? Anything one would think I would be missing out on? Thanks.

Once they started a seasonal model, the had zero regard for new players in terms of story.
