Diablo is indeed a single purchase game (with tons of MTX and soon to be DLC of course, but the base game is a single purchase).

So no, it's only subscription games that would be affected? So you just can't use the service in the future, they're not locking anyone out of a purchased product.

Diablo (at least 3 - excluding the console versions and 4, not sure about the older ones) is an online-only game, if they're locking you out of your account, then you will not be able to authenticate to the game server and thus won't be able to play.
