    The reason I don't flat out say who "The Warrior/Wanderer" is in these videos is to not spoil it for people who haven't played the games, until the information becomes relevant (see Diablo 3), because it honestly doesn't really matter until the point where it was retconned into the universe.
    An argument could be made that it gives more stakes to the first game, but I felt that the Diablo 1 video should be apart from as much D3 retcons as possible.
    Thank you for watching :)

      Thank you for this. With the recent Diablo 4 annoucement I want to play Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 but wanted to know the story of Diablo 1 with minimal spoilers. So it was very considerated of you to not spoil the story (even if it is something not major).

    If I recall correctly, the 'canon' hero from Diablo 1 was the Warrior, who was Prince Aidan, Leoric's eldest son, who later became the Dark Wanderer

    I was about 8 years old when I got my hands on Diablo. Man, I was scared and could never really finish the game, but when I did at like 10 years old I was more intruged than anything else! Than I got my hands on Diablo II when I was about 12 and it was the most fun I have had growing up and I still play it till this day. I love the lore of Diablo it's one of my favourite storys of video games.

    I started playing Diablo as a 6 year old back when it first came out (my Dad would visit my uncle a lot, and he didn't have tv for a while, so I used to play on his computer while he and my dad spent time chatting about stuff, and one of the only games my uncle had was Diablo). The Butcher gave me a few nightmares, and I used to freeze when I heard the "Ahh, fresh meat!" (which was bad cause I always played Rogue). Even replaying Diablo as a 26 year old (who loves the paranormal and laughs through nearly all horror movies), I nearly freeze everytime I hear that line. I will still never forget the time I accidentally locked my screen in first person view when I was about 8, and replaying Diablo again, on level 2. I had a panic attack. Looking back on it is funny now, but 8 year old me and the good graphics for the time had me terrified.
    Ah, memories...

    You forgot the fact that in one early trailer for Diablo 2 the wanderer went in a stage coach and held the soulstone, talked some nonsense about going to the east and in the end dropped that stone on the road, or threw it away if you like, claiming it was his last piece of humanity or something like that

  • @peterpeterson4800
    @peterpeterson4800 5 років тому +6

    The Warrior from Diablo 1 is a knight of King Leoric, returning from the war against Westmarch. And he hit himself with the old Devil's gem, because he knew that Diablo's spirit would just try to posses someone else otherwise. He thought himself strong enough to withstand the demon.

    Im confused on one part. Lazurus shoved the stone into the head of Leorics son. What do you mean he smashed it earlier? I would think the stone is buried, Diablo took over his thoughts, he took the stone and stole the kid, put the stone in his head allowing Diablo to fill his body and then the Hero kills Albretch and is corupted and shoves the stone in his head.

    It's theorized that the rogue became the bloodraven we see in D2 and the sorcerer became the summoner we see in Arcane Sanctuary in D2. All speculation, but, it seems to make sense given that we assume since the warrior fell to madness and became the dark wanderer (Diablo) that likely the other two would fall as well.

Afterwards, I had to go take a dump because I was still terrified. After that the game didn't seem so frightening.

    Parents really just didn't give a fuck in 90's. Both my parents are loving and caring, my siblings and I were never neglected................ I was still allowed to play Resident Evil at 8 years old though
