Changes to the Diablo Lore

Seems as though Blizzard have gone and changed the Diablo lore, but is if for the better, or for the worse?

I am merely delivering this to you, as it was delivered to me.

Hi, Avi -

All what I wrote in the Sin War was as Blizzard has decided the
official story shall now be. I agree, it differs from the original
Diablo material, but that is because they have expanded well beyond
that now, just as they did with WoW. Even at the time of Mel's book,
this was not so, but was decided shortly after. Obviously, what
happens after Inarius is turned over to Mephisto is up for conjecture.

So what, now the books are more canonical than the games, which intoduced the lore?

What are your guys' thoughts?
