A Diablo 4 fan translated the in-game text used by the Church of Light, only to discover the word "werewolf" over and over again. If this hilarious detail is Diablo 4 Items any indication, it seems the Church of Light in Diablo 4 has a bit of an obsession with lycanthropes.
The Cathedral of Light, the religious order created by the angel Inarius in Diablo 4, is one of the major factions in the game. All across Sanctuary, players can find stylized text from the Cathedral in various places, from statues and engravings to books and leaflets, which fans have affectionately dubbed "Lorath Ipsum."

However, Diablo 4 fan TheoryOfN discovered something hilarious about the in-game text and shared their findings on Reddit. The Collector's Edition artbook for Diablo 4 has a key to translate the Cathedral of Light text. Using it, they were able to translate the words found in Diablo 4. When they did, they found nearly every piece of text in the game – and in the artbook itself – was some iteration of the word "werewolf." Occasionally the letters would be jumbled up in some other fashion, but werewolf was consistently repeated everywhere they looked.
There are a few instances where Diablo 4 used this text to say other things besides werewolf. The holy book from the first Blood Petal cutscene in Nevesk uses the same text, but the words are complete gibberish. The Diablo 4 world map, on the other hand, features some actual words on the far eastern edge that roughly translates to "BEWARE FRACTURED MOUNTAIN" and "BEWARE HERE BE DRAGONS," though the text cuts off, so it is difficult to read it perfectly.
Diablo 4 players got a kick out of the particular discovery. Some joked the Cathedral of Light must be obsessed with the Druid class in Diablo 4, or that they were sick of dealing with the werewolf infestation that plagues Sanctuary. Others mused the text was secretly a hint that one of Diablo 4's upcoming seasons will be lycanthropy-themed.
Other fans were actually disappointed with this particular Diablo 4 design decision. Since players love finding little details like this, so it was only a matter of time until they discovered the repetition of the word werewolf. These players think Diablo 4 could have added actual lore, hints, or other jokes in the text, and that just repeating werewolf seemed lazy. Either way, now that fans have the translation key, they will undoubtedly be scouring the game world for more non-werewolf messages hidden in Diablo 4.
A repetitive message that keeps appearing in Diablo 4's on-screen message box has many players irked. Diablo 4 is Blizzard's latest big hit as the dark fantasy dungeon crawler has garnered huge sales as well as critical praise over the past month since launch. Despite this, there are still some headaches many players wish to see fixed.
Part of Diablo 4's intuitive and stylish user interface is a handy message box on the lower right side of the screen. This box is home to many types of notifications that scroll by during play such as the most recent NPC dialogue, important actions of other nearby players, as well as information regarding the current session, among other things.
One of the many features of Diablo 4 is optional crossplay between different platforms. When this feature is enabled, a message informing the player will pop up in the message box in large yellow text. However, it seems like a recent bug is causing this D4 materials particular message to repeatedly pop up about every 30 seconds, and players have had enough of it.
