Also, I was always kind of curious about the win condition for the Sorcerer. Rouges and Warriors could just get bigger weapons, but I always had a hard time with Sorcerer unless I got either Fireball or Golem. Could you really beat Diablo with just Firebolt if you had to?

It can be done with firebolt, but even a level 1 Holy Bolt absolutely wrecks Diablo's day and books for it are incredibly common. Fighting your way there, on the other hand, can be tough if you don't get some of the higher level spells. Lightning (and/or chain lightning), fireball, and golem will get you through most situations. If books aren't dropping as much as you'd like, look at Adria's inventory, and keep a shield handy if you find mana potions expensive--the Sorcerer is secretly the king of shield bashing in this game.

God drat, the RNG just seems to flat out hate you on this run. You'd think you'd get more cursed gear than you're getting on a run.

I don't know; I've played this game plenty ever since it came out, and cursed gear has always seemed surprisingly difficult to come by. I'm not the least bit surprised it took so long.
