Love the style you have with these walk throughs. Really role playing it out as the paladin is cool too. You have a ton of potential. If you write your own scripts, then additional good job.
Very nice work man. These videos have reminded me just how incredible the voice acting was in D2. Personal favorites are Lysander and Hratli, but really, just about all the voice acting is top notch.
Been following along for a couple weeks now. You actually got me reading the books; just finished Sin War book one and am waiting for the audiobook for book 2 while I plough though Legacy of Blood. Anyway...the writing you're doing (the knowledge you're bringing of the wider lore of this game); the recording and video & sound editing (which is seriously time consuming -- I run a tiny podcast and I do not have your work ethic); the acting as narrator and as your character; even the attention to detail in in-game artwork (which I totally missed during multiple play-throughs). All of this is seriously well done, I've never seen anything like it, but I'm glad it does, and I'm glad there are people like me who enjoy it as much as I do. I've said it before: "Dude, you have a wide variety of different talents and you harmonize them very well. I hope more people see this because it’s damn good."
Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy, there is Act/part 4... Appreciate the work and time you put on... I can somewhat imagine how much time it took to make this. Thank you=)
Lol that always bothered me. Like how did tyreal think Marius was going to get through the infernal gate and then get to the hell forge not to mention aquire the hell forge hammer to smash the soul stone? I couldn't believe Marius even made it as far as the bottom of travincal tower? How did he get passed the compelling orb? None of it make sense.
Hahaha, I always thought about that too. Like, Marius was Diablo's traveling companion/some random old man. What exactly was Tyrael expecting? The fact that he even got to Mephisto's room was a miracle.
Can I just say, I still find it good (and amusing) that the character being played is anyone but the assassin, as it'd be odd speaking to ones canonical self.
These just keep getting better and better, the mephisto part, the self story telling you put in there, really made it good. Just found you & I hope you keep this up as good in other games as well! Looking forward to the diablo 1 lore through in this style!
Fun fact, in Wrath of the Lich King, the NPC in Icecrown Citadel who rewards you with rings upon reaching new reputation levels with the Ashen Verdict is named "Ormus the Penitent" lol.
"And I thought Lysander was one of a kind" - haha I love your take on all this. I love Diablo lore and the Aussie accent is refreshing (I'm Kiwi) - thanks for your time and effort making these, they're brilliant. You should look into voice acting/reading/presenting or something.
I'm kinda confused. Why do any of these people think that the brothers hadn't been reunited already, by the time you arrived? Nobody saw Marius anywhere, and he witnessed them gathered. So, logically, he left before you got there.
There were More quests in this act? The acts there seem plenty long and tough as it is. This is my favorite act indeed, lots of lore and tons of monsters. The whole place is amazingly mazey, bloody.
Man I got to say role playing as a paladin against evil is by far brings out more emotions out of all other classes in any media. No other class in this game, Dnd, wow, ff as bring out more HATE as the paladin. Love your videos my man. 👍
These Diablo lore videos are so perfect for having on second monitor while I nuke my way through a bunch of dungeons and occasionally get instakilled by a random boar/corpse bow!
But lightning is great. Not only does charged bolt stun lock or FHR lock both monsters and other players but it also has the potential to do a fkn disgusting amount of damage at high levels. While fire has a more well rounded damage profile and they both have the same *average* instead of doing say 18k to 22k damage lightning does literally 1 (one) to 44k damage.
I was always a bit confused about the timelines and what and why happend in Kurast. By the time of Diablo II events, Mephisto already freed himslef and is just having fun with corrupting Kurast and when Diablo visit, it was just "hey, bro, lets open portal to hell."? I am confused, because from primal evil I would expect much more chaos and mayhem and evil stuff in general. So is he intentionally staying low and waiting for his brothers or is he still somehow bounded to the black temple and need Diablo to break the rest of protective magic?
Miss the equipment updates a little from the first few acts, this however is my only complaint these have been a fantastic ride my friend and useful to a wife who has never played and wants now to know what the story is.
So ultimately the way to truly defeat Mephisto is to give his deformed wraith form a hug and go "I wuv you." Honestly thought bashing his head in was the route to go but hey the more you know!
This was the closest thing for me to getting a Diablo movie or audio book, sad that we won't get a treatment for D3 and D4 and their expansions...I do hope you can reconsider your decision (that we respect) and gift us with what nobody has delivered so passionately. I myself, am not a fan of the storyline of D3 and so forth...but it's still the best devil lore out there, no :) ?
@@DarkLOREDash Awww Niceee! Thank you so much! Just gonna say that the last scene in D4 VOH is pure Horror where no movie dared to go before! (Just trying to LURE you back into it :D!)
For some reason I used to think Natalya was going to accompany us after some quests, imagine my dissappointment. Anyway the little guys were also a pain in the ass, didnt know the paladin could handle so well. Thanks for making the video as usual.
Ok I was listening to this in the background. I heard two familiar voices. One was the guy who played Technomage in B5, and the other Malcolm from ST:ENT. Am I right?
You Know Kurast Is my favorite place in Diablo Universe But After The Zakarum was Corrupted Mephisto, And He Was Defeated, Kurast Might Decline Permanently
I have a request if it is possible to be done? Could you do something like this with a ps2 game called King's Field king's "king's field the ancient city: The Ancient City with your videos like this I have a great feeling you can pull this request off :)
Please hurry with act 4 and 5.I like it so much.It's like i'm watching one of the greatest adevnture movies,even though i played the Diablo series so many times and i know the story like a poem.I still like watching the lore this way,like a movie.So please hurry up with the act 4 and 5.
Game LORE Dash: ugh, it took a week before we find this place! The paladin: Uh... we literally blitzkrieg through everything by cheesing the map :| Game LORE Dash: I know what I said
I've come to see the Paladin's abilities as being based on the Armor of God concept from St Paul in the Bible where each part of the armor, shield and weapon has a purpose. The energy auras representing the purported meditative abilities of certain monks from historical times. Some elements of H.P Lovecraft as well ( K'lyeh). The corruption of the Zakarum Church can be parallel to the accusations of heresy and devil worship levelled against the Knights Templar order just after the Crusades. I remember investing time building my Zealadin ( Zeal + Holy Freeze main attack) back in the day. 😊
@@DarkLOREDash I really enjoy the videos by the way keep up the good work suggestion for video series Diablo bestiary I don't know if there's actually enough information I know I've been looking and with the exception of the couple videos you've done I can't find anything
My favorite part of the game starts here, mephisto could be amazing if his soul found its way, it always finds a way. Could be interesting if that's what happened to imperius. Imagine an angel playing host to a prime evil? Because valor became vengeance, vengeance becomes hatred. Could be anything, even a triune priest disguised as a mercenary looking for others to enter his daughters prison.
Was thinking maybe the /players x command could be used to make mobs seem more lethal and chunky? Think it would add to the experience if everything doesnt go down in 1 hit. Im not sure however if this command can only be used in Pluggy mod and bnet
Why is it so hard to find a video answering the only question I ask how do I actually get to Kurast everyone only shows them farming there not how do I get there
F.Y.I.: Diablo never spoke in all cinematics in Diablo 2 series. Only speaks in game only wheb all seals are broken and before battling Diablo in Act IV.
Nope, it was Aidan, the fallen hero which was possesed and infected by Diablo after he was stabbed in his forehead using Diablo's soulstone. He was still a human. True form of Diablo under aidan never speaks in Cinematics.
@@shalkonon013 Diablo in cinematics never spoke. Only in game. Aidan and his team beat Diablo, and then he gets Diablo's soulstone from his (under Albrecht's) forehead. Unfortunately Aidan didn't control himself and unwilingly forced to stab on his forehead. So Aidan is being permanently infected with Diablo. In Act I to II cinematic He's still Aidan but in his mind is under Diablo's influence. In act III Cinematic His face disfigured and almost transformed like his face has spikes. In Act Four, his human body shatters and become Diablo. Only Aidan (before transforming Diablo) speaks.
@@shockwavethewarlock I know but the reason is its sad that Tyrial is using him as a sacrificial lamb to destroy the soul stone, I don’t know what is going on in Tyrial thinking when he said that
Diablo could replicate several and if not numerous Biblical References from the Old and New Testaments with combination from different sources of major world religions and modernized sciences intertwined together with strong consideration to past, current and future events based on modern occurences and other evidential forklore that are substantial in nature too :)
Biblical references such as the Birth Of Jesus Christ of Nazereth, Son of God and many other substantive explanations that can be included for future diablo games :) Since Lilith is also evidentially included in the Diablo 4 game and also its happenings in past biblical events and occurences too :) So why not Blizzard could do more than whats current.
