    This is also mirrored when Tyrael tried to gaze into Chalad'ar and found it overwhelmingly depressing as he saw within it, the sum of all things... which inevitably lead to death.

    I never interpreted him as going “insane” just that his Wisdom brought him to the inevitability of death for all beings so he concluded “Death” was the only escape from the eternal conflict…..but that’s just me

    I always interpreted Malthael's "madness" as him finding an end to the Eternal Conflict by becoming the Archangel of Death, seeking to being a trye permadeath to Heaven and Hell's leadership/forces. We are never the problem, as mortals and Nephalem. It's the Burning Hells and High Heaven that are the problem. Clearly D4 showed us this, as did D3.

    • @Kalendir
      @Kalendir 11 місяців тому +15

      Yeah, because what he did was actually just from an archangel point of view. That is, eradicating evil (impersonated by demons and their offspring, humanity) when it was weak and could really be wiped out. If not for nephalem, he'd actually end the Eternal conflict - and Anu's dark side would be defeated for good. No Lilith, no Diablo IV, Inarius happily drinking beer with Imperius, Diablo's balls hanging fron the Diamond Gate, Burning Hells no longer burning and used as a storehouse. Happy end! Yay!
      But "no, Malthael", "you're insane, Malthael", "let's not kill demons, Malthael, we should be more inclusive and tolerate them".

      @@H240909 That's not how Tyreals sword works... He's the literal embodiment of Justice and his sword reflects that. The sword passed right through because Malthael is an arch angel doing what he believes to be good, and right. Malthael had no evil intent in his heart so the sword passes right through.. IF there were any humans with a purely good and just heart (doubtful since half demon) the sword would pass right through them as well.. The sword is basically justice itself and it judges with it's blade... if you're evil it will cut you down, if you're not it will simply pass right through. If malthael wasn't there he wouldn't have been able to take the sword or kill the others with his weapons. The first two that got their heads lobbed off wouldn't have happened if he wasn't actually there.. he also wouldn't have been able to physically take the soulstone.

      @@FloundBlacky’m not sure that the characters are acting like idiots, but rather they just resolved themselves to tackle each problem as it approaches. They (I think rightly) saw Lilith as a threat, and even though they knew a graver threat was looming on the horizon, they decided to deal with her first, or else lose everything that mattered before that graver threat arrived. I think that in trapping Mephisto, they have a hope to delay the inevitable, but I think all of the characters are very much aware that the fight isn’t over at the end of the final act of the campaign.

    Millennia of warfare he saw despair… so in other words weakness… All the angels seem to be infected by it. Inarius went simp, imperious went angry with power, auriel got captured for a little while and every angel just about gave up instantly. Sure demon worship is probably bad, but why bend the knee to weakness? Just playing devils advocate with this.

    to me, Diablo Lore in general makes no sense, because it first states that there was one great being and this being divided himself in two one of pure evil and one of pure good and they fought till death and from the corpses heaven with angels and hell with demons were created. So both beings are incomplete and completely "enslaved" to their nature and thus they keep fighting giving origin to the eternal conflict.
    But here is why they make no sense to me, they make these stories about Angels feeling envy and anger. how can they feel these emotions if those were casted out as part of evil? it makes no sense. but they only make this, they don't make stories about demons feeling compassion, etc.

    • @OfOurLife
      @OfOurLife 5 місяців тому

      Exactly cuz demons dont feel compassion and they destroy. Angels get infuriated. So angels become lesser "demons". Especially in due time. Thats why leader of angels the Valor Imperius is full of hatred. The brightest angel of them all also became the darkest angel of them all. Are they all enslaved to something? Yes they are. To physicality, it is natural.
