What I find really interesting about Diablo’s character development is how the devs through the years have designed him with the classic hulking, brutish demon look. You would think he’s a physical monster. Yet, as you described, he is tactical and methodical and doesn’t resort to physical rampages. It’s a fun dichotomy and subversion of expectation!
In all the games he's merced physically though
😂😊
@@trojon True, true! I guess that’s the divide between lore design and game design. Especially with D1, he had to be a physical menace to be a good final video game boss, no matter what the lore would say.
@@trojon but he has defeated Imperius very easily
I like how Mephisto is usually the 1st of the Big 3 you meet , rather than say 40k where It's Tzeentch all along!. Hatred is used to corrupt and allow access to the others. But Mephisto tends to have more that 'mage build' out of the 3 and yet be leading the invasion from the front.
Let us say Diablo is the most..., "cunning", of the three, regardless his brutal look. Yes, Mephisto is supposed to be the cunning one, but in the end always ends up giving up to his own hatred and commence whatever action he had previously planned; Diablo on the other hand, will always wait to the most precise moment before starting whatever he's got planned. Baal is the opposite to these two, hence the nomination of Lord of Destruction, but that also does not mean he is a mindless attacker or something..., even Baal will know/prepare his stuff before strike.
very nice video. I really enjoyed the way you laid it all out, and also found the artwork you included throughout to be really cool! I always love seeing Diablo art, it's just so freaking cool
Thank you!
Makes sense that hes the most physically imposing, in terms of appearance. Being a giant terrifying demon plays right into his whole bit, "Terror".
I wonder how will they get Diablo back in D4. The primes are reborn in hell, the gates are shot and Meph got out only because of us and Neyrelle. Hope for some good crafty lore to explain Diablo's new diabolic plan:D
The gates being 'shot" really doesn't mean anything given the fact in the first diablo he was summoned in and the following game is the exile of the the prime 3 id really say its not a how but a when, An the answer to that i hope is he is the last prime in the game we fight not like in D2 where we fight Baal an sure in D3 we fight diablo but again his defeat os overahadowed by maltheal
@@jarbroham5541 In D1 he wasn't summoned, he was in the soulstone under Tristram Monastery. I don't know how the dark exile happened technically, but I believe it's not that easy to get from hell to Sancturay (although after World Stone distruction it is certainly easier than it used to be). Didn't Mephisto manipulate us "trap" him in the soulstone, coz he wanted us to take him to Sanctuary?
my theory, Diablo tried to take possession of the mortal Tyreal, who fled to the west, away from Lorath and the Horadrim.
All part of his plan
Another banger from Nyx! (sorry I was late, I was out of the country. LOL
Always love seeing your comments!
its kinda funny that he is a very cunning and cerebral prime evil, but also the one that looks most like a physical fighter.
Really enjoyed the video gonna watch it again :)
I don't remember seeing anything related to Diablo in D4, I hope they do something Big for him in future DLC's
The one death that Blizzard fumbled: Deckard. It was anticlimactic and very.... lackluster.
It's been a long while. I really missed diablo lore stories :)
Will u make a video on Baal soon? ⚡️
Big plot hole where the Horadrim abandoned the monastery that they built to contain Diablos essence.
Perhaps because the key figures of horadrim is out of commission? Tyreal return to heaven too…
Thanks for the history!
Brother we found the rest of the hidden quest items. Look into Abigail’s hair, Note From Grognok, and Mordreth's Grimoire. There are others too.
Great video!
I don't get those eight dislikes. This takes effort, and is well enough told.
Thank you
Bayle? VILE BAYLE? CURSE YOU BAYLEEEEEEEEE. I HEREBY VOW, YOU WILL RUE THIS DAY! BEHOLD, A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR AND I IGON! YOUR FEARS MADE FLESH! SOLID OF SCALE YOU MIGHT BE FOUL DRAGON, BUT I WILL RIDDLE WITH HOLES YOUR ROTTEN HIDE! WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS, WITH EVER LAST DROP OF MY BEING!
You forgot immortal where it shows scarn inhabiting his remains thus keeping Diablo from spawning. Only after skarn is defeated does diablos essence start to reform.
Any chance youll do a video on all the d4 seasonal lore? I know you did one for season 5 but didnt see s1-4. I didnt finish out most of the seasons with not vibing with the game state for a bit so i missed out on the lore lol. Looking forward to vessel of hatred atm
I've done a video for each season! Look deeper into the channel :P
@@NyxVellum alrighty ill double check thank you
@NyxVellum wanted to say thank you! I went and watch s1 and s2 lore video and watched the one where you played through s3 content. Appricate it! Needed to get myself caught up story wise for VoH
Can we get a video on the explanation of BAAL?
So basically Diablo is the equivalent of Warhammer's Tzeench. Just as planned!
I really wonder if the current developers understand the prime evils as well as they are described in this video. I'm pressing X right now.
Hope Diablo will appear on D4 in future update
Adria was not evil in the first one. She was a supportive merchant in Diablo 1.
She can be evil and support capitalism :p
Why do angels not re-form when they die like the demons do? Does anyone know?
They do! It just takes a while.
@@NyxVellum So what about Malthael and Inarius? That's not the end of their story I assume then? I also assume that they then would re-form from the crystal arch, meaning they'll be back in heaven again. Inarius would love that I think.
@@spookayitsme that's correct.
@@NyxVellum You piqued my interest so I went and did a bit of reading. It seems that after death; the crystal arch eventually churns out another angel to fill the same role that the dead angel was responsible for. However it is a distinctly different angel with a different name.
I guess Malthael and Inarius aren't going to be reborn as the same angels after all. 🤷
@@spookayitsmeif they’re reborn into certain roles then they will be the same just different names. Malthael is death, he can’t be reborn as something else right?
Justice for Leah!
his head looks like zorc necrophades' head.
Lightning inferno time!😊
1:03 That picture is nightmarishly awful!
Spooky!
I still think blizz should release a Diablo MMORPG like wow but action combat instead of tab target instead of re-releasing classic wow or upgrade graphics of wow when they can give everyone a new fresh vanilla experience and on point graphics from the start with a new Diablo MMO
Id love to see diablo succeed and humanity having to gather a resistance to fight and over throw him.
Is there a diablo cartoon?
Its a 20min oneshot! I think it came out arround the time of D3
Its on youtube somewhere
How will diablos return in D:I will fit into this?
Doooo Baaal
The whole series is named after him. So hell yeah he’s a problem.
Great videos so far (watch 3 back to back. Timelime, mephisto, and this one) found 2 inconsistencies so far though, adria didn't create the black soul stone zolten kulle did as said in the timeline vid and in the meph video you said lazarus was sent to free diablo from his prison by meph but here you say diablo corrupted him instead. Sorry to nit pick either way these have been great and i will continue to watch any other video you have up now and future. Im looking forward to a lote dive on barotuk if there isnt one already
If it’s anything like Diablo Immortal, they just need enough power to manifest in the world. Actually, from what I’ve been reading, DI is certainly canon and somehow people skip right over the lord being built up.
The lore ended after lod
That’s you by the way 😂
The story of the man...uh...demon himself.
Movie name please?
Not quite a movie lol. It's a video game franchise called Diablo funnily enough.
Who is disliking this ?
Cristian’s
@@bucaboy2002Cristian's? ... Do you mean Christians?
@@spookayitsme yes thank my auto correct your the best!
@bucaboy2002 you mean "you're". Smh pathetic
I thought it's Imperius
When you finish diablo 4 campaign you get a 1 sec glimpse of a big Demom , is not that demom Diablo?
Yeah the dark wanderer couldnt become diablo, he was too strong of will. He wasnt like albrect who was a weak boy.
Hi there
An I don’t have Tell
It’s amazing how they have this amazing lore and the possibility to visit various places in various states, in the games… and they squandered it all on that shitty live service MMO that nobody asked for. To think that they’d even gatekeep the single player story campaign behind that idiotic always online DRM. The fall of Blizzard was more tragic than the fall of Leoric.
I 100% agree with you... there's nothing to add to this tbh
