Marked as spoiler, but I'll still be vague where possible.

Near the beginning of Act 6, when you are walking through the city towards the underworld, you come across a group of cultists that mention "lord of hatred" in terms of worship. Your character and party/allies even call it out - "why would they say that? Lilith considers him the bad guy? Interesting..."

Was that referencing something I missed? (I finished the campaign, so I can't be spoilered) Or was that just supposed to mention how its all a game to the evils? What did it mean?!

I think I agree with you that they are hinting towards something. Ultimately Lilith isn't a Prime Evil, she even helped create Sanctuary. The game gets us to immediately start doubting who the big bad is in the 6th act. The rain of blood? Probably Mephisto not Lilith. I think Mephisto was allowing Lilith to co-opt the Triune cult, as he knew they would remain ultimately loyal to him/other primes. It is likely in the 6th act they simply stop pretending for Lilith and are awaiting the return of Mephisto. Was a great YouTube video on it. Let me see if I can find it
