![Why are the Nephalem So Powerful? [Diablo Lore]](/img/tr.png)
He never really held the most powerful weapon - health potions.
Just go has a wizard and freeze him constantly. Didn't even use a single potion.
There are no health potiona in D3 though, except the fixed one you get forced binded to a hotkey.
@@LTCloud9 bruh...you just said "there are no health potions BUT there are health potions" - _ -
Lol
@@iHasCaek derp lol. People have those moments. 100$ says he was high.
Malthael will be back. Just like demons, angels can't be killed so easily. They're made from light and sound waves of the high arch. He will be reborn soon enough
How do you kill that which has no life?
The thing is, in the case of Angels they're not just reborn like Demons are... The story of Izual teaches us that after an Angel falls, a "replacement" is born from the Cristal Arch, it's not the same Angel, it just serves the purpose of the dead one... No aspect of Wisdom was "born" from the arch after Malthael stopped being Wisdom (perhaps because Tyrael evolved into that, eventually) and we're yet to know if Diablo's actions on the Crystal Arch had any effects whatsoever... I think there should be at least scars there...
I don't think Malthael will be reborn, but Heaven might still be doomed with Imperius becoming Wrath and Nephalem (the good and the bad) growing in power...
Andrés De la Oliva Guzmán he is death itself. I'm wandering who was aspect of death before him, or if he was always was aspect of death with some crazy time/space explanation. who knows, windows are open.
Arch angels are reborn though, it just takes time. When Tyrael destroyed the world stone, his physical body died too. It took 20 years for him to be reborn.
dzbll that's a great point, but I don't know for sure if Tyrael died after the destruction of the World Stone. He says his harmony was disrupted and it took him 20 years to reconstitute. Malthael was destroyed by the Nephalem, and with Tyrael taking his place in the Council, I don't know if there's enough lore right now to support the idea that Arch angels reincarnate somehow...
What I don't understand is that Nephalem are partially defined by beings that are both good and evil. They have a choice to be good or evil and they can do actions defined as good or evil anytime they want. But then there's that Angel who flees with a Demon and stop doing their duties. There are 'corrupt'/fallen angels (and demons). What about them? They appear to have choice too.
All creatures in the beginning came from one being Anu who split himself into two parts, Anu and Tathamet. Then they fought each other until they were destroyed and what was left of them formed the angels and demons. It seems to me that the desire of some angels and demons to band together and create the nephalem might be the completing of the circle. The nephalem are closer to the original one being Anu then both angels and demons could ever be. Maybe some part of the essence of Anu and Tathamet wishes to be one once again and unite in peace. The logical conclusion to the story of Diablo should be the destruction of the heavens and the hells so that all that is left is the successful union of good and evil in the nephalem and humans. Then the circle is complete and Anu will have transitioned from being one union of good and evil to a more dispersed union of good and evil having created the world and life in the process. Also angels like Malthael are really limited in their view of the world, they are locked into their angel mindset of angels = good = right. Most angels except Tyrael cannot see past their programming and cannot understand how what they see as good and evil can exist in harmony.
@@supernus8684the irony is u don't realize the very reason angels and demons exist is cuz good and evil failed to coexist as anu, i'm not sure why exactly anu split himself into two but its more than likely he did cuz he had an internal struggle with himself, so he split himself into his 2 sides and those two completely failed to understand eachother even nephalem being both good and evil don't get along, if they couldn't coexist in anu the original then they definitely wont as angels or demons or humans
Malthael never really pissed me off until he _shattered the Black Soulstone_ and basically rendered everything we'd done - and Leah's sacrificed life - useless. Oh, also after I read Storm of Light. Bloody hell I wanted to throttle him after I read that book.
What happened in it?
What in that book made you want to throttle him?
Tbh I don't understand why that didn't bring Leah back, it should have since everything's undone.
@@Ahmetfusta
Why would destroying the vessel for Diablo's/the evil's soul, return the previous possessor of the vessel's dissolved, and very twisted by that point body???
Blizzard needed that. Lest there be no Diablo 4. They needed the Prime Evils freed to be resurrected for us to fight again. Diablo will rise for the 4th time. Kinda feel bad for the guy becoming basically a Pinata...
Malthael action were actually really justified he was the angel of wisdom and he knew if ridding all demonic life he would have ended the long battle between angels and demons once and for all.
the greatest evil to beat is the mobile platform now.
while someone farts in the bus :kappa:
Don't you have phones?
the Prime Evil.
😁oh my !!
You i like😉
Great video. Loved hearing more about Malthael. He was such a great antagonist... Can't wait for more Diablo content.
The fact that the worldstone was destroyed and released the humans nephalem potential and the fact that malthael absorbs the recently nephalem potent soul. He should have been strong
He was, instead of taking 30 mins to take him out, it took me 3 minutes lol
I'm not so well versed on the lore of Diablo but this really helped me pieced together a much better image of Malthael, Thx bro.
WE WANT MALTHAEL BACK
Humanity: No thanks!
What was the hidden truth? You literally said nothing.
I agree. Clickbait.
Legit just recounting D3s story...
The Truth was Malthael's Ideology and Philosophy. How he saw the True Dangers of Mortals due to their ability to choose of Actions Worthy of The Highest Angels and Lowest Demons. Mortal's Potential for Greatness was their most dangerous aspect and why he tried to kill all Mortals. This was him admitting that Mortals have More Power over the Cosmos than the Angels and Demons themselves due to how many they are and their affect of their actions impacts Reality
He looks so badass... I hope he will return (in good way)
I like diablo games, always have but the diablo lore, is something I love.
Well Malthael was right about our ability to choose being an abomination. First time I saw him got me thinking in a... not so pure way. He's right to be repulsive of human existence in this case.
However, there is one quote to justified his action that lead to his downfall:
"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
Which is why, he lost his way and become one of them no different than demon.
Malthael is my favorite character in Diablo series
The design of his character is siicckk
So are y'all going to cover the SC2 20th Anniversary going down rn? I'm a big nerd for SC2 but I saw that Overwatch and Diablo 3 get something out of it too, so I thought it would be something you'll cover
Hands down best lore explanation video on the matter, should probably check more of these :)
Honestly, I kind of want to see imperious be the villan due to the fact that he threatens the nephleam and the angris council serval times. I get that he's doing what's best for the council and the high heavens but how cool would it be.
Well he doesn't have the last boss feeling. Unlike Diablo, Baal, or Malthael, he's too emotional and impatient. No wonder Tyrael took over the Aspect of Wisdom position because Imperius is a bit dumb.
@@user-pi1lb4tf2f Imperius isn't nor has ever been the aspect of wisdom tho?
@@WereCreed The aspect of wisdom is the defacto leader of the Angiris Council. Granted that Tyrael became a mortal, Imperius may have tried to usurp the position though he respects Malthael so much so he didn't do it immediately.
@@user-pi1lb4tf2f you're really stretching.
Malthael was the aspect of wisdom. Though after the shattering of the world stone he dipped out, as stated in the video. Imperious stepped up as a stand in for the time being, not as the aspect of wisdom.
@@WereCreed Probably, I might have been badmouthing Imperius so much. But my case is that the malthael incident shows that no creature is incorruptible be them Angels. And Imperius has been antagonizing the nephalem due to their demon blood, but now he can no longer argue against the Nephalem since the said incident is caused by one of their own and it also doesn't help that the Nephalem is now the strongest creature living. To cut the story short, his hatred against the nephalem may come out justified if the latter will become the next big baddie but in no position to be vindicative since the angels caused the events of ch5. Hence, when Malthael no longer serves as the aspect of Wisdom and a new hope is required, the angels, who are supposed to be the symbol of goodness, has allowed Tyrael to Usurp power as the aspect of both Justice and Wisdom even if he is now a mortal.
I love how cool this Malthael Angler Of Death looks i even had to change my characters name and bnet to Malthael xd
Would Malthael possibly be a stepping stone to the next games, where the great evils are working together, somewhat
nieeecceeeeee....do a video of potential villains for the next diablo game
Malthael did nothing wrong.
Tyrant not really, but truth he is insane, wiping out all of humanity. Basically, mass salughter for the greater good. Ultimately, Lilith, and inarius is the most turning point within the series. Obvious the high heavens needs to stop the prime evils.
Armani Nguon Malthael did nothing wrong!!!!! :'(
Imagine if you found out that every pet dog is secretly growing in power and being corrupted by evil and that eventually they will be powerful enough to wipe out all humanity (I know this sounds stupid but just imagine that).
Would you rather start killing them before that happens or wait till the whole world is doomed?
Sylent its a meme bro kkkkk from berserker kkkkk
Tyrant he actually did not nothing wrong
Really hate that they cancelled plans for a second D3 expansion. It had it's flaws, sure, but in RoS the story was way better and universally applauded than the base game was. The ancient Europe black plague vibe and grim reaper was something I had no idea could fit so well into Diablo. It's a shame.
HOPEFULLY D4 will be amazing but you just can't trust game developers these days.
The Nephalem have always a power-up.
Do a video on uldissian, lilith and inarius
One of my favorite hots characters
Damn, Malthael sounds like the undead Tau Commander xD
Nice. This game series is so awesome and well done... the tramma, the story, the depthness... its so good. Why wont they make a damn tv, movie or anime serie of this? There is now doubt that people would watch it
Besides all angels are reborn unless they are turned to a demon, so Malthael will mos likely return
Whatever. If he returns, he'll get from me ass beating number two
"Not even death can save you from me!!"
* walks in with the Butchers Cleaver
Ahhh... fresh meat!
He's a ultimate badass my dude
If you ask me, I'd say humanity should annihilate both angels and demons, that'd stop the Eternal Conflict. At least that way the only conflict would be between humans, and at least humans stop to take a breather once in a while, unlike the immortals.
Everyone talks about mouth I'll coming back, which is possible. But what of the angiris council? Even if not they'll comes back pure as the Archangel of wisdom, they're still missing the Archangel of Justice. I wonder how the new one would come about
3:15 ahhh release.
Such an underrated gem of a game. Even at initial release.
The game is not very good.
Devs don't really care about it. But the lore IS pretty damned awesome.
Lerquiy of Nirlac it's a beautiful underrated gem. a dev who doesn't care doesn't give a game lore like this.
I should have said doesn't care 'anymore'.
If they have the time to give a moba lore (for which they previously stated there is no lore), but they don't expand upon this for six years, it should give a clear message.
Lerquiy of Nirlac the only message there is is how people criminally underrated and shot down this game. I couldn't recommend a better moba.
I'm pretty sure the people who made most of the lore long ago, did not work on D3. Plus, the lore is cool. But it isn't that amazing.
I just don't know what hidden truth did you reveal. Everything you said was known from the game. Shameful display.
Standard click bait title. I'm disappointed too.
But at least it was a nice well written video that you can view on the internet any time you want at the price of zero dollaz
It was hidden in his head
Liked for the ending. “A SHAMEFUL DISPRAY!!!”
Can’t wait to play Diablo 4
Question... Now that Black Soulstone is shattered, we got ourselfs back to point zero or the ending of Diablo 3? I mean, Diablo absorved the other Evils becoming the Prime Evil, with that in mind, we got ourselfs THE Prime Evil or the Prime Evils at large ?
thank you for that video
as long as blizzard is alive diablo survives always 😂😂😂
Can’t malthael just respond in the high heavens at the crystal spire
The definition of chaotic good
Archangel of wisdom is truly an internet in chatacter
I like seeing more diablo content :>
Man, I have a difficult choice on my hands. On PC, should I get Battleborn: Full Game Edition (DLC costing 29,99€), Ghost Recon Wildlands (Game costing 59,99€), Hover, Revolt of Gamers (Game costing 19,99€), Diablo III (Game costing 19,99€) Tom Clancy's The Division (Game costing 49,99€) or Far Cry 5 (Game costing 59,99€)? I can only pick one because I live with my parents and I don't have a "dayjob" yet and I can't pay with my own money yet.
I'd appreciete it if you left a recommendation.
So is matheal the grim reaper or an angel I'm confused
Thanks
Aspect of death, archangel of wisdom
damn maltheal! u done fukt up!
Perfect, this guy makes sense.
Makes perfect sense but things do not work that way in reality. Like it or not everyone is bound in chains like slaves by things called laws for good reason. Without Law there will be chaos where there is chaos will be evil and evil is in all of us. We as humans have had evil thoughts even if we don't admit them we simply burry them deep into ourselves so that won't be thought of again because reality and these laws keep the peace in the world for the innocent people who want nothing to do with this trouble. And unfortunately sometimes these little evils that come out of us are just waiting to have the excuse to pop up and make us do something irrational like this recent incident with the cop snapping a guys neck >.> The point is that if you don't follow the law chaos will happen and all hell just breaks loose and comes right out the gates devouring innocent peoples "lives" So I really do hope you read this and take this advice to heart everyone. Best advice that has been handed down my family for hundreds' of years. All children in my family are taught to think with logic and reason and only be emotional to one person in life. The person you want to be with for the rest of it.
Im addicted
Can we get a DLC with Baal?
How come there are fallen angels but no redeemed risen demons?
What is that Diablo anime you show footage of?
TheTrueHappy Diablo - Wrath
So I just realized something. If malthael didn't perceive humanity to be abominations until Diablo's defeat. And shortly after that Tyrael became the aspect of wisdom. Would that mean that the reason he couldn't use the cup was because he wasn't wisdom anymore?
He make such good points about humans though.
considering that humans write his character, that would make sense.
Can anyone link the videos that are featured?
They are from all over the place - do you have one in particular you are curious about?
Did I miss the "hidden truth" part? Watched the video but unless I'm missing something that was more of a lore recap, wasn't it? If the title was click bait then whatever, but honestly was there something I missed?
Hehe. Looking forward to see what they do next with Diablo. Having us fight all the prime and lesser evils again.. Maybe even stronger. In their true forms. Becuase from what i understood,... We have always fought the Prime evils in their humans twisted form. But never in their true forms. I mean you look at Diablo in 1 and 2, big muscular, Diablo 3... "he" has a more feminine form. Meaning that the host is what influences their forms. As well as the other thing that i hope hapens... The girl..... Leah is saved. Her soul could have been draged into the black soulstone when it was used to have diablo take over her body... I hope anyway. Cus she is a nephelem. She has some demon in her. IN this case... A bit more than most. Cus you kinda feel bad for her. Being used by her mother as host body for Diablo... You go with her thru her loss of the only person that she could call family... Decard Kain. She deserves to be saved. But still.. Who knows what hapens.. We have fought the demons.. we have fought the angels... Maybe we fight not just demons.. But even Nephelem... Maybe even some angels that have fallen? Imperius is my bet on who is gona be the corrupted or fallen angel. Cus when you look at what he does and says. He hates humans. He is pridefull. He thinks he is high and mighty. Yet he would have been killed by Tyriel if he wanted to during the duel. But he wasnt. He failed against Diablo... Those kinds of things hurt ones pride. Especialy when yu consider yourself one above all in power and position... To have yourself just be put down bellow humans in power... Isnt a good feeling... Especialy for an ancient being like him. Maybe even see him in a merging of him and Diablo? As a true merging of Angel and Demon. Creating a new type of creature that is.... maybe stronger than a nephelem. A true threat.
Agreed. Leah should be redeemed. She is just a civilian born into the struggle. Leab is bae.
We are (mostly) in agreeance and thus echoing Jason's stance in who the next antagonist in the Diablo franchise would most likely be: either Imperius or a fallen nephalem IMO.
P.S.
Uldyssian ul-diomed should definitely become part of the Heroes of the Storm playable heroes roster.
It would never happen but I think it would be really cool if you could choose to be an angel or a demon and the next game focused around the eternal conflict itself or perhaps the sin war
Diablo 2's diablo appearance is VERY close to his REAL appearance.
Diablo 4 could be a prequel playing out during the Sin War (the one after Uldyssian dies, not the one with his edyrem). Then the player character could be random angel/demon with two different single player campaigns.
It would be more RPGish with character customization and stuff.
But then you would have to make a game with 2 sides, and multiple classes. As well as making all gear work for both. Probably would be to much work, considering that the gear needs to fit. Both sides, all classes. I doubt that will be the big thing. What would actualy work, now that i think about it. Is if they made the game that is set inside the black soulstone. With the reason being that ALL the prime evils and lesser evils are in there. And who knows what is liek inside. Maybe a hellish landscape shaped and forged by those minds those souls inside. It would be an easy way to say, lets remake every evil boss. Lets explore something new. We have explored the world of Diablo. Maybe not all of it. But a fair bit. What is there left?
If he really inhalied the aspect of death he must return,cos unlike other Angel a becomes death himself.
So how should death go death?
And the other case is he is technically a complete other type of fallen Angel,cos he was not captured, cursed by Demons.
He is fallen by himself and his long life of the old Aspect of wisdom.
That's make him unique.
He's action to absorb the soul stone is very unwise.
I just want a 10 year time-skip from now, so I can watch Diablo 4 get released
You have to go freeze yourself like Cartman lol
You may have not wait for 10 years but 2.3 years more
U got it chief
yo guess what
Good news lmao
So basically, Malthael is a hard reset for the prime evils. 🤦
Sounds like malthael was corrupted by envy.
More like Pride and Wrath.
@@brendanfrost2475 not at all. if anyone, that would be Imperius.
Fr
the villain always finds a way to justify their doings
Literally got hero of the storm to play Maltheal
So what was the hidden truth? I already knew all this just by playing the game and reading wikipedia lol.
Malthael did what was right, after all he is the arc angel of wisdom not death. He saved humanity by making himself the villian, nephelem defeated him and there was peace once again. The nephelem will allways win against evil even in death.
Where are these Diablo cartoons from?
I just searched Diablo cartoon and it came up with a short film
If you're still in need of the answer, it's from an animated short called 'Wrath'
To be the most wise angel, he pulled a bone head move
you don't know that though. It could be part of what is intended. After all he knows how the war between heaven and hell will end. Perhaps his role becoming the aspect of death etc. is part of it. Perhaps his sacrifice was needed for a bigger part to the story.
The most enlightened ones tend to be the truest. He has seen enough wisdom to know he must make a sacrifice for his heaven comrades.
Whas it just me who heard him say engelic beans at 0:25?
Malthael reminds me of Thanos,both of them are my heros
Someone else to add to my list:
- Elliot did nothing wrong.
- Garrosh did nothing wrong.
- Malthael did nothing wrong.
Griffith did nothing wrong
Sylvanas did nothing wrong
- Thanos did nothing wrong
Advice: Spit filter...
bro heem the title is wrong hes the archangel of wisdom
ok but what was the hidden truth
Diablo 3 was/is a great game and its remaster is quite good as well. We just need a new game with a little more spice instead of same thing all over again. You kill games like that, kinda like Halo and CoD.
I would like Blizzard to collaborate with Sony PS4 and Xbox One to create a console version of Diablo 1 and 2
As PC players would know that constantly clicking on the mouse will have tremendous repercussions of the hand😉☺
Diablo 1 actually received a console release on the PlayStation 1 little known fact.
? I feel like I didn't play Reaper of Souls, because a great deal of this was unknown to me.
Same, and I've been playing the game since its release
Well basically, either you played too many adventure mode games, or like me, you weren't connecting the dots between all those little cutscenes, because that's basically what this is, it's showing all the cut scenes in context, whereas you probably got a piece of it from one scene, then had to kill 1000 demons to get to the next one, along with 3 other zones in between so you forgot exactly everything that was going on.
0:38 OREO??? Hahahaha
So the greatest angel of wisdom, Died a Fool.
No his title was his judgement. He must be wise. And that's a long way to venue and call a fool mind u
Would it be possible that we just put Diablo as a mid game boss in Diablo 4 and make Malthael the main villain. He had so much more character and build up to him. Diablo was just.... there in the end.
Malthiel is dead by the end of thee expansion and Diablo is released from The Black Soulstone.
@@otakon17 Same as demons, angels will respawn from their place of origin, that is hell and the high heavens so Malthael has good potential to return. Maybe not in Diablo 4, nobody knows, but in lore it's actually quite easy for him to return.
@@harku123 Considering things, pretty sure anyone the newly Death empowered Nephalem slays, STAYS dead.
@@otakon17 Perhaps
Still haven't played RoS oops
Now I want hollywood superhit movie on diablo....
I still remember thinking maltheal was so cool when he reflected the baldes on the demons who threw them! Sad😒😒
Waitwaitwait...there's an *ANIMATION?* Where?!?!?!
sooo.... wisdom huh?...
Soooo.... he’s the good guy?
Fun fact Diablo was the game which inspired the game Darksiders!
"hidden truth" , You just described what was already in game , how tf is that a "hidden truth " ?
which part of this info was hidden lmao
Malthael in his thoughts:nephalim to OP pls nerf
Michael and sky
Malthael is hot I love him
I never played Reaper of soul just because I don't want to kill Malthael, I love him so much TwT
Maltheal is the most interesting character imo
Once again defeated by a mortal
it saysDiabll fans instead of DiablO fans for the webside in the description ^^
fixed
i dont rly understand how imperius sees malthaels doing as something he needs to stop
at best he tolerates humanity, at worst he would love them gone
if one of his brethren finaly figures out how to do it, then honestly the dumbest writing decision was to make him fight this.
4:44
Would of made more sense for Diablo to be a Fallen Angel imo
