There seems to be a running theme between Angels and Demons using/ending their children. Mephisto wants Lilith dead, Inarius straight up murders Rathma, and Diablo uses Leah as a vessel resulting in her death. Funnily enough despite being the most reckless, Baal is the only Prime Evil without some sort of offspring he hates or that wants him dead.
Can't wait for Diablo 5 when they reveal that it was actually the Jailer who was pulling the strings all along and that the 3 Prime evils were actually trying to save Sanctuary.
@@DaocInfDid the woke of whorecraft team ever reveal something about the voidlords or have they completely given up on that trope ? I stopped playing after MoP.
How are you saving Sanctuary by plunging a dagger into a little boys head ? Ok , that wasn't fair. Diablo. He's a prime evil , no ? Tell me again how he was SAVING Sanctuary by using the events of 1 ? And then what he did in 3 when he stormed into Heaven , why , he wanted to ensure Humanity has enough potatoe chips to eat ?
I Don't play video games but somehow stumble down this wormhole of Diablo while being bored tonight on UA-cam and I find all of this to be so fascinating! Wow! Thank you for making this awesome breakdown!
Fun fact: I know this story better than my own life story,yet i keep watching it from time to time, because i like the pictures people put in it. Thanks mate 😎👍🏼
This is a stellar overall dive in the lore. Thanks for the long-form content and a great refresher on some lore I forgot about. It's been so awesome to find a channel that loves the Diablo lore like I do. On another note: If you have DMs open somewhere, I would love the chance to chat and ask about something. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
This is AMAZING, I hope you feel very proud of this project. Everything about it is so well executed, from the images to the narrative. Thank you and congratulations!
sounds to me that diablo 3 was diablo having a grand master plan to fake his death into victory, diablo 4 was mephisto's grand master plan to pretend his defeat into victory, and d5 will prolly be how it was actually all a grand master plan of baal to emerge as the ultimate :p
It's a big one! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. I'm only one person doing this in my spare time so it's possible I missed something. Let's get a thread going under this comment with anything you think I missed. Much love ❤
Really good job. Thanks for the rundown in total, and d4. I played through diablo4 the one time and immediately quit it and forgot the entirety of its story. Much better to hear it quickly here than to have to play that pile again.
Been playing since the late 90s and i was so caught in gameplay i gave little effort to the story. Thank you for catching me up and I appreciate the game all over again
As some one who just got into Diablo with Diablo 4 , I have to say this lore breakdown is amazing, it's GoT levels of story telling and intrigue, amazing job
The only critique I have is a minor one. You glossed over the other two playable characters of Diablo, Moreina the Rogue and Jazreth the Sorcerer. They ended up being corrupted as well, showing up again as enemies in Diablo II as Blood Raven (Moreina) and Summoner (Jazreth). Otherwise, great video! I've been a Diablo fan since I was a child (in my mid 30s now) so it's great to see someone teaching people interested in the lore of one of my favorite series.
@@croixsuxended up as a mortal** he wasn’t a human, he was still an angel. He just wasn’t immortal anymore. Remember the humans were originally an angel/demon hybrid. Tyrael chose to become mortal as an angel, so even in mortal form, he’s still an angel & is made from light & all
She's using humanity for her own ends. On top of that, she and Elias had different definitions for "strengthening humanity": Elias wanted to imbue people with more power; Lilith wanted to cull the week, leaving only the strongest. You can see Elias recognize this difference in the cutscene where a follower is eaten by wolves, even he was disgusted and began to lose faith.
Fuck no please. I don't want some pussy-ass woke interpretation of this story turning it into a fucking commentary about how we should respect the gays or some shit.
@@rgrimmes8760that's the only thing that stops we wanting a TV series of diablo, it would get fucked beyond all reason as does everything in this day and age but can you imagine how awesome it would be if it was done right
Man seeing the image Of Lilith, Kerrigan, Sylvanis, and Widowmaker only makes the loss of Heroes Of The Storm only more painful. Diablo 4 brought in several characters who would have fit in so very nicely.
@TenzinBeifongIII what's interesting is HOTS has been getting some updates over the last few months and looks like it could possibly be getting a revival as it was dead without updates for so long then not long after Microsoft buys blizzard it starts getting updates again it looks hopeful.
Not only was not a very good MOBA, but it had security issues in its broker P2P architecture that made it really, really easy to map hack. The game was filled with hackers and there wasn't a damn thing Blizz could do about it.
As someone who only watched the cinematic cutscenes of this game without playing it, I'm shocked that sanctuary was actually referring to the world and also that lilith was essentially the creator of humanity.
As someone who got into the Diablo universe with Diablo 4 I appreciate the breakdown in the lore, satiated my curiousity, i wish we could have sided with Mephisto though
I just don’t understand Lilith’s role as antagonist in Diablo 4. Her aim was just to protect sanctuary and destroy his father which is a good thing right? what are they planning with Mephisto’s soulstone and why did they bring it back to sanctuary knowing that no one has ever successfully resisted the influence of a soulstone. Where the hell is Tyrael?
Liliths role as a antagonist was that the method by wich she chose to protect sanctuary was corrupting humanity and placing them in the crosshairs of both heaven and hell... Mephistos soulstone is probably gonna corrupt Neyrelle and posses her to reincarnate into earth, as that was clearly his plan from the begining of D4, and Tyrael might actually be dead, considering he became mortal during diablo 3, and was waaaaay older than Lorath Nar was on Diablo 3, and Lorath looks old as fuck in Diablo 4
Lilith just wants the war to end, and for her that means taking down both the High Heavens and the Burning Hells. To do that she needs her children to become stronger. People in peacetime rarely keep up the powers they have from war after the first generation. But with Inarius escaping (or set free), she was deemed a threat and becomes the unwilling antagonist. With Mephisto corrupting Nyrelle, Lilith certainly would have pursued her to take the soulstone. This would mean that we had to defeat her to stop it.
Inarius led the people to believe that Lilith was the antagonist just so he can come back to the high heavens. I still think Lilith was just trying to protect humanity
@@croixsux She was just ntrying to protect humanity... her methods were wrong, but she was NOT evil in the literal definition of the word, Inarius was the evil crazy fucker in any case... Still since Lilith was NOT captured in a soul stone, im 100% she will be back and help in some way or form
@@croixsux Her way of going about it though was callus and clearly shows she has less interest in the casualties she causes. She strikes me as a woman scorned and as a woman to whom the ends justify the means. Such as the deal with Asteroth and using Ronin's son as a bargaining tool. I was hoping we would be seeing more of a return to the Nephilim state as was done in Diablo 3 but it appears that won't happen.
Yo nyx i figured it out! It’s Barrett’s book of implements! That’s the secret set for each class! Some quotes don’t have Barrett’s book in the quote but the item is noted as a relic from the quotes! So each class has a secret set of armor made up entirely of RELICS! The stone of Jordan is missing in Diablo 4 because it is THE RING OF MISFORTUNE MY BROTHER!
@@NyxVellumalso noticed a tendency for specific uniques to “nerf” your character in a similar fashion to ring of misfortune. Staff of lam esen lowers your damage, the teleport chest raises teleport cd. Stuff like that.
Beautiful! Fun Fact : prince Aidan is actually the Warrior from Diablo 1, my fav main pg so far ( we can say that he died the moment he became the Dark Wanderer). I rly hope they gonna remake the warrior class in D4 one day.
never played diablo. probably never will. but after stumbling upon the cinematics for diablo 3. your video was recommended. and after watching the whole story. the diablo franchise story possibly could last forever. lol. now im caught up. thank you.
Since the game just came on game pass and ive only played diablo 3, your video is on point. I won't finish it because i want to play diablo 4 myself, but now i know the events before diablo 3. Great video, and thanks you !
I started playing StarCraft in 1998 and still play a match of SCII once a day. I'm going to play Diablo this Labor Day weekend in 2024. So, thank you a ton for this summary to get me ready for the story!
Thank you for the work you put into this.... very well done, picked up 3 in January and 4 last weekend, I know I won't get every reference but it's good to have idea of the first two games lore as I learn the rest for myself.
Nice one for this. Pretty new into the world of Diablo so is nice to learn the lore, enjoying 4 so far. The butcher has been nothing but nice to me in it. Even turned up twice when I was a lowly level 5 to say hello. 😅
*Crazy to think we stand in the Pandemonium Fortress in D2 (the fortress where the Worldstone once was).* *By the time D2's timeline comes around, we find the Worldstone in Worldstone Keep. Which is inside Mount Arreat. The keep was created by the 3 ancients. Talic, Madawc, and Korlic.* *Such rich history.*
Players only gets to Pandemonium Fortress in D3, and the 3 ancient are 3 Nephalems tasked to defend intruders to the keep where the worldstone is held, the fortress aren't built/created by them.
So Mephisto has been trapped in a soul stone before and it ended badly and now Neyrelle is running around with Mephisto yet again trapped in a soul stone. Nothing could go wrong right...... right?!
so much that was only hinted at, now explained. thank you. would have liked to hear more about the origin of those classes you did not explain fully. like amazon and druid.
The story of Diablo 3 was so grand and epic, Diablo 4's story was a massive step down. You realize that when you figure out the story of Diablo 4 was about the creators of humanity and sactuary and it had less lore about them in the game than Diablo 3!! I mean Diablo 4's story is basically the story between a former simp(Inarius) and his revenge on his ex, and the ex(lilith) trying to scheme to get her daddy's money(power of prime evil)!!! I can't believe they did that with the story! the antagonist of the story isn't even a prime evil!
Loved this, I really feel you should have outed nithalatak as being the traitor that caused the downfall of the barbarians and bypassing the ancients to get into the fortress that holds the worldstone. But whatever, you can get caught in details all day lol
How did they manage to write a lore with depth greater than some religions? I get that it takes inspiration from some religions, but they managed to piece things together very well lol. Now I want to replay the whole series.
Thats the best vid ive seen on the diablo story, very clear timeline and other detailes that werent mention in other vids Any ideas what will come next?
Kind of funny that the humans only came into existence as a way to end the Eternal Conflict, but the conflicts that occur in Sanctuary are just as fruitless as the Eternal Conflict itself, just more cycles of eternal beings being killed and reborn, banished and summoned, seal and released over and over with no side ever really gaining any ground.
to bad the relationship between Inarius and Lillith didn't really mean much in diablo 4 it was what I was most interested in as it would be insane drama while their want to escape the war still feel human.
I trully hate the retcons they made in diablo 3. Like the warrior being Leoric's older son and Adria being evil all along. "OOOH the misterious witch that everyone is suspicious about is TRULLY EVIL" like, that's original.
Is Darksiders in this same universe because it seems like it in some ways or are they both doing their own interpretation of the same base material? If so what is the base material?
Hi folks, Vessel of Hatred is OUT and here is my video covering the entire story/lore: ua-cam.com/video/VSIgAJ9Jcao/v-deo.html
There seems to be a running theme between Angels and Demons using/ending their children. Mephisto wants Lilith dead, Inarius straight up murders Rathma, and Diablo uses Leah as a vessel resulting in her death. Funnily enough despite being the most reckless, Baal is the only Prime Evil without some sort of offspring he hates or that wants him dead.
That we know of. Or it could be as the Lord of Destruction he might be incapable of having offspring since that would involve creation.

Watched the whole thing. Thanks for this Nyx
Ah the best story of any arpg to date .
This is great, thanks for it! Only thing I see missing is Diablo immortal
Thank you for making this!
Thanks for watching!
5 is going to be amazing!!
I wonder why they call the game Diablo when it seems that Mephisto is usually the main antagonist.
This video is sooo accurate love it!
Awesome, had my attention from beginning to end. Great job.
I’ve watched this 4 times back to back 😭😂 thx you otherwise I wouldn’t know what the hell was happening
Brilliant summary! I was quite miffed by Diablo4 story: Mephisto's "grand plan" sounds very much like a reash ploy just to have another sequel.
Excellent storytelling!
Loved the artwork, where do you get it from? Great job by the way 🎉
Awesome video brother.
Now we just need Diablo in space
Great summary, and a good narration too. Thank you, good work! :)
Really looking forward to this. Thank you.
I trully hate the retcons they made in diablo 3. Like the warrior being Leoric's older son and Adria being evil all along. "OOOH the misterious witch that everyone is suspicious about is TRULLY EVIL" like, that's original.
Thank you for the video. Helped me remember and learn new things I thought I knew
Is Darksiders in this same universe because it seems like it in some ways or are they both doing their own interpretation of the same base material? If so what is the base material?
