Fair enough, although I do feel that the game as a whole is less cohesive than number 2. In terms of mood number one is definitely my favorite, though, and the small glimpses of story it gave you left me wanting more, which I can't say for 2 or 3
+SupernovaDragon77 hahahahahaha I know, hide a freaking rock. Toss it into a volcano or something that doesn't have a door. Blast that shit off into space.
And let's transport it with spears. Not like there's any danger in that, right? I know that they shouldn't be touching the soulstone, but still, was that really the best method they could think of?
Why do they always hide artefacts of world conquering power in the most obvious room in a dungeon? Why not put it in a box and bury it under the next tavern or brothel or something? You know, somewhere where people won't be looking for it?
They thought malthael can't enter, because the ancient nephalem city only allows humans/nephalem to enter. But malthael possessed a human, so, it didnt help
DovahSpy lol , i dont think some layers of dirt , rocks and shit can block a demon/angel 's vision dude . Its like trying to hide The Ring from Sauron with a wooden box lol
Angel of Death Light and Darkness if such box exist then theres no point even hiding it since the enemy cant open it at all ! ... hell we can even give that box to the enemy as Christmas present and dont even need to worry at all lol
I suspect that Malthael only hates humans, and initially believed Tyrael to be one. However, when Tyrael called him 'brother', and Malthael looked closely at the soul he was extracting, he let him go. Maybe, since the Lords of Hell are defeated, Malthael considers humans to be the greatest demonic force left. Given the nephelem (half-demon, half-angel) heritage of humans... he's sort of right in that belief.
I have a feeling he is in posession of Baal's and Mephisto's Soulstone aswell. If you remember that back in diablo 1 diablo got out of the soulstone by corrupting humans you could actually conclude he feels that the soulstones would be more safe with him than with the humans. god im excited :p
creep140192 Mephisto's and Baal's soulstones were destroyed at the Hellforge by the player in Diablo II. Mephisto's was done as a quest in Act IV, while Baal's was done after the events of Act V. Their souls were, however, marked by Adria... All of the demon lord's souls were sucked into the Black Soulstone, which Malthael now possesses. If I had to guess, he is trying to communicate with Baal. Baal corrupted the Worldstone, which had a dampening effect on Sanctuary. By that I mean, it prevented full-scale demonic invasions, but it also reduced the powers of the Nephelem until they became the humans seen now. When Tyrael destroyed the corrupted Worldstone, it did two things: - Unlock the heritage of the Nephelem, giving us (the player) our power. - Allow full-scale demonic invasions, as seen in Act III of Diablo III. It's possible that Malthael wants to learn exactly what Baal did to the Worldstone, to see if he could possibly reverse it (or prevent it from happening in the first place). ...And, at the End of Days, Wisdom shall be lost - as Justice falls upon the world of men. Valor shall turn to Wrath - and all Hope will be swallowed by Despair. Death, at last, shall spread its wings over all - as Fate lies shattered forever. Wisdom shall be lost -- Malthael abandoning the Angiris Council when the Worldstone was destroyed. Justice falls -- Tyrael becoming mortal and falling to Sanctuary. Valor shall turn to Wrath -- Imperius forgetting his honor and courage in favor of punishment and hateful spite. Hope will be swallowed by Despair -- Auriel being imprisoned by Rakanoth, Lord of Despair. Death shall spread its wings -- Malthael resurfacing as the Angel of Death. Fate lies shattered forever -- This is the only one to not occur yet. I believe that Itherael will be killed by Malthael. Perhaps Malthael wants Itherael to change fate, and bring the Worldstone back? Itherael, refusing, is then slain. Well... nuff of my theories.
***** It wasn't a nephelem in diablo 2, as far as I know. And, as I said, it was destroyed after the events of Act V. Aka, we didn't do it in-game, but it did happen.
apparently he was unable to understand how one mortal (the nephalem) possessed the power to defeat Diablo when all the forces of the high heavens were unable to end the eternal conflict. he became the aspect of death when faced with the power of Nephalem because as he understands it death is the only weakness mortals have.
***** Thanks! The plot does seem interesting - I know it's the usual clichéd stuff but it still could be a pretty fun ride if it was made into a book or film. I just can't get into role-playing games though, there just not my thing.

BoT_Renegade it's awesome because it shows that Malthael is not only a real threat, but also a threat that will bring about a horrible fate to all if we don't stop him.
I've played Diablo and Diablo 2 plus both of their respective expansions and I STILL don't see what everyone is bitching and whining about with Diablo III and Reaper of Souls, they're great it you ask me.
It's the same with EVERY SEQUEL EVER! Just look at Dark Souls 2 as an example: fantastic game, 9/10 sequel to a 9.5/10 game, "worst disgrace to the series ever" Diablo 3: 9/10 sequel to a 9.5/10 game, "holy shit this sucks" Can't think of any other examples off the top of my head right now.
DovahSpy Mass Effect 3, Dragon Age Inquisition, Dragon Age 2 (it wasn't as good as the first, but it was still good), every COD after 4 (excluding MW3), Diablo 3 (hell there's even a small group of people who think Diablo 2 killed the series). There are more but for the life of me I can't think of them. Oh one more, Dark Souls (the first one), a great many fans of Demons Souls hate the game and call it a rip off (because games can't have spiritual successors right?)
I take it that you haven't been following the development of D3 along from the beginning of it's announcement, release, post release, etc. because all that "bitching" post release is what made the game into its current halfway decent state compared to what it started out as. That's why there are seasons, leaderboards, no more RMAH, the Monster Power feature (which I should note the shift to dynamic difficulty as well), Loot 2.0 (which was a big change and a testament to how shit the prior loot system was), adventure mode, "end-game" goals that isn't just paragoning to infinity (now paragon 2.0). I remember leveling the blacksmith and jeweler for shits because they were totally useless. Also, what about those "randomized/generated maps"? Yeah right I spent 100 hours going through all the difficulties and it seemed static as hell. I think I ran across two or three of those randomized "off the side" quests in that time period as well. Also, what the hell is up with that shitty "enrage" timer? Terribly annoying "feature" that does nothing useful other than screwing the guy who's trying to have fun with not top of the line gear. This of course is just my perspective but I give credit where it's due and that to the community in guiding this franchise into something playable.
Not a Diablo fan, just a Warcraft fan, but damn the story has been nice from what I hear and this here looks far interesting. Well played, Blizzard. Well played.
I saw this game at the store, took a real good look at it, even stopped for a full minute and imagined myself grinding, collecting gear, doing quests, having some late nights and then eventually beating the final boss. I then put the game back down, saved 60$, and can now move on with my life. I reckon 4 out of 5 stars, not bad.
Try maybe 12-13 hours of that beating diablo, unlocking nightmare mode, and doing the same shit again, if you have a monk (and know how to use him) the game doesn't get hard until you unlock hell mode, or play on Master II
Malthael was a cool villain, but he definitely left his mantle as the Aspect of Wisdom well and truly behind. Some spoilers ahead, so don't expand this post if you care about that. He's done some startlingly stupid things that I feel he shouldn't have. For starters, he was totally intangible! He should have hunted down the Nephalem right away! The world and all within it would have been his for the taking. Pretty much all he did during the RoS expansion was set himself up for defeat. And in the end, instead of destroying every demonic presence in existence as he intended, he managed to release all evil back unto the world. **SLOW CLAP**
maybe he is the youngest udner the angels xD then he can do mistakes & fails too xD (nah im think that imperius is the youngest, then Auriel, Tyrael... so Itherael & malthael... idk... I think itherael could be the oldest....)
Johan Dale Malthael has a hatred of anything demonic. Humanity, in the Diablo universe, are the result of reproduction between Angels and Demons. That's why Malthael killed the horadrim, they are, in part, demon. However, Tyrael, even if he became mortal, still has a purely angelic soul, hence why Malthael felt no desire to kill him. Also, plot armor.
Johan Dale He doesn't care whether a human is good or evil, he kills them all anyway. Hence why he's a villain. From his point of view, he's the good guy (unlike say, Diablo, who knows he's evil, and likes being evil).
Read the comments and see for yourself how DIablo 3 failed. Diablo 3 may have destroyed the Diablo series. Enormous fan of D2 here, and I haven't (and _won't_) be picking up D3.
ZobmieRules lol D2 was okay, but hey I am not a 40 year old man playing the older games I'm 19, and I like them all. So yeah to the people who don't like it that's your own personal issue lol get with the program.
ZobmieRules "Wah, Diablo III wasn't a carbon copy of my beloved Diablo II, therefore it's a horrible failure!" A majority of the biggest issues people had with D3 on release have been addressed; there was initially a sizable amount of content and replayability and recent updates (plus the expansion) have only added to it; it was a commercial success and despite the bits of controversy here and there, it was a critical success as well. Diablo III did not kill the Diablo franchise, nor was a failure. Your opinion leads you to see it in a negative light and that's fine, just bear in mind that opinion is not fact.
+way2cool93 Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo. All have good stories to tell and it would be amazing to see all of them made into good movies. I really hope Warcraft does very good numbers so that they can continue.
I love how Blizzard made Tyrael's powers so ambiguous and what he is so nebulous that he can become as strong or as weak, or whatever he needs to be for the story. We in the writing biz call that "Good eatin'!" which means "derp-de-derp-de-derp-de-doo, I'm a good writer, and so are you! I made a rhyme, I do it all the time...*gasp!* I did it again, perhaps I'll do it a-a....again!" -Sincerely, A guy on the Blizzard writing staff. Which isn't to be confused with a staff, a staff can be both Gandalf's weapon of choice, which isn't to be confused with his sword, but his long, white pole, that he likes to stroke lightly with his hands and rest against his weary head, or smash over the heads of others... Or it can be a group of people who work for things or under stuff, or do things for stuff'n'people. You can even have a staff where you stuff people. Usually dead people. Or stuff people sexually, we call that porn, you stuff various holes in them. Yup, lots of staffs, or staves if you are Gandalf. Right Gandalf? "Right!" Thanks, Gandalf.
+RadDemon A Grey Knight cannot be corrupted by the powers of Chaos. While anyone else can be! Their gene-seed isn't derived from one of the Emperor's sons but from The Emperor himself. They also have the highest amount of terminator armours that have a chunk of the armour of the emperor embedded into them. To make it more understandable for non 40k fans: they're not servants of God, nor angels. But literal children of God.
For those who still did not notice after all this years. Tyrael sword can't kill Malthael because he believes that what he does is justice so the sword won't kill him Malthael can't kill Tyrael because he is pure and has no evil essence in him.
d3 is not a fail. It's lacks high-level content so much and forces you to do the same storyline over and over again - yes, but the setting! the atmosphere! the level design! its a marvelous, masterpiece game that only misses one part - variety. When you farm act 3 at inferno for 2481th time it most likely bothers you as hell. But when you complete the story for the very 1st time - isn't it marvelous? You can't force a player to run through the same story 4 times (easy, normal, nightmare, inferno) if the story is not worth it. I know many will disagree with me, but if you think over it for a while, you will probably find it fair.
i agree with james. first few playthough was most enjoyable but now its just grinding for gear so you can show yourself as the most powerful nephalem. i am looking forward to adventure mode and bounties in RoS. itl freshen up a game thats not what it could have been but still not bad iether.
I got literal CHILLS down my back when Maltheal said, "...No one can stop death." I couldn't stop shaking from his voice and how creepily epic it sounded. Jeebuz. ;o;
It's comedic how all these Diablo 3 haters are essentially using the same argument which has been addressed several times. Their arguments are basically things that happen in the previous Diablo games and all other similar games. If you don't like Diablo 3 then that's your own personal opinion, don't attempt to convey to the rest of the audience that everyone hates Diablo 3. Evidently, it's the same haters that tend to coincide with the lower end of the IQ spectrum. Moreover, they can't seem to comprehend simple rebuttals and will(like a spoiled immature cry baby) tend to argue their point as solid facts regardless of what anyone else decrees. If your brain lacks elasticity and unable to comprehend change then you shouldn't be playing this game to begin with. Simple minded haters always tend to gravitate to simple mechanics in simple games. There is no point in arguing with them since they lack basic courtesy and respect to uphold a simple civil argument. I for one loved this game regardless of anyone's opinion.
I agree. To be honest I just bought the game few days ago and I am glad that I bought it. At first I just took demo but 1 hour later I already had full game. I don't get those fanboys who are telling that D3 is shit.. I like it and so does my gf. We both play it and we both enjoy it. Gonna take RoS also for sure.
Corey Noneofyourbuisness You forgot to include "In my personal opinion." Prior to your comment. I have played Diablo 2, personally, i prefer Diablo 3 by a landside. I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
Jaan M Don't let anyone influence your decisions. Make sure you experience it for yourself without negative thoughts by others constantly pervading your mind. Good choice :)
Now tyreal's fatal mistake was standing in the death cloud trying to soak up all of that damage with no health globes around and he probably didn't think to buy any health pots either. Plus he had no group diversity running with mostly horadric mages. He relied too heavily on his cooldowns as well, maybe should have had more than one cd binded to his hotbar.
You know, I've played all the Diablos and their expansions and I have to say: Diablo III is NOWHERE NEAR as bad as people say it was. Granted, it's not as good as 2 and some of the diologue is cringeworthy, but it was a good game. Not incredible, but good. The problem, I think, is that people set their expectations too high and were horribly disappointed.
SrMichaelBucket When it first came out it had a lot of bad mechanics. Reaper of Souls fixed everything that made it bad and just made it an overall more enjoyable game.
SrMichaelBucket People have their complaints about the story. I have some as well, but I don't really mind it too much. For the most part it was the mechanics. Now that the game is fixed they're focusing their attention on something else. Don't you know how these things work? People always have to complain about something. Eliminate one thing and they'll complain about another.
Actually, I loved PoE's talent/skill map..it's epic. But, I cannot stand the character graphics. They look like blobs on the screen in comparison to D3...so in regards to POE, I would think it would have been Blizzard's Art design department that would really give POE a name. :)
I do honestly agree, though I do also think it is a bit more than just PR. Blizzard has always been great on their art, presentation and creating amazingly well lasting games graphically. I don't think Diablo 3 is any different there, but yeah, it doesn't really feel Diablo and thinking the company behind it, you would expect a bit more.
Easy to say when it's a cinematic. If you were anywhere near him in real life you'd cry in the corner, that's the point, to find a character threatening or "ominous" you have to put yourself in the shoes of the people around that character. Only a child would find a 2D animation "menacing".
probably because, as it's usually perceived by our world, death is the inevitable truth of all things. I can see a corrupted holder of wisdom embracing death as part of its new valued ethics.
. . . And, at the End of Days, Wisdom shall be lost as Justice falls upon the world of men. Valor shall turn to Wrath - and all Hope will be swallowed by Despair. Death, at last, shall spread its wings over all - as fate lies shattered forever.
LOL, Diablo is becoming like the resident evil franchise, the story never comes to an end, they really reach to extend the story and the games are really getting bad, well thats only if you are a Diablo 1 and 2 fan,, Diable 3, what have you done -_-`
I dunno, I though the premise was good - Death deciding to steal the ultimate source of evil. They came up with an enemy that was just as intimidating as the Lords of Hell. The problem was that the extension was too freaking short, with characters and events being shunted along, almost as if it was rushed.
TheDerpReaper That was Malthael the former archangel of wisdom after the renegade demons and angels stole the worldstone and hid it in Arreat mountain it was destroyed (for a reason i cant remember) Malthael went on a long journey in Pandemonium trying to answer why it blew up (creating Arreat crater) and he also went mad trying to answer the mysteries of life and death itself eventually he fell from sight of the Angiris Council and the rest of the council hasnt been the same since.
Dan B The mere fact that you said, "...they tried..." and "..is pretty good.." is the entire summary of this game and the quality of it, if you said something along the lines of "They fucking nailed it" and "The cinematic rocked my world" then I would still be playing it :D
Blizzard's cinematics are always fucking cool, the details are unbeliavable. I mean, just look at 2:50 ... amazing work, I just wish the game itself was that exciting.

J Mulqueen and i dont know much about how diablo died but i think the crystal or whatever contains diablo's soul or whatever
J Mulqueen until the day his vessels dies all of them

Tyrael picked a pretty shit place to hide the stone.. damn thing didn't last 5 minutes.
I hope this is far enough out of the reaches of Heaven. Oops.
Man, just the way he says, "No one...can stop...death." Fucking chills. Every time.

Can u explain this cinematic?

I swear, video game story lines are better then actual movie story lines now a days!
+DashCamExtraordinaire DCE Yeah
+DashCamExtraordinaire DCE the plot of Diablo III is kind of basic.

+Dany Burton Not much worse than previous Diablo games' though... And first act really beat all of Diablo 2 when it comes to the mood imho.
Fair enough, although I do feel that the game as a whole is less cohesive than number 2. In terms of mood number one is definitely my favorite, though, and the small glimpses of story it gave you left me wanting more, which I can't say for 2 or 3

+SupernovaDragon77 hahahahahaha I know, hide a freaking rock. Toss it into a volcano or something that doesn't have a door. Blast that shit off into space.
The guy just walks through his sword. Good fucking effort Tyrael
+Nathan Mortenson That doesn't make much sense since swords kill him in the end.
***** it's like ok I defeated satan himself and now all you have to do is hide the soulstone. Couldn't even do that
Thing I don't get is why don't they take it to the hell forge and smash it once and for all like in Diablo 2, doesn't that still exist?
This cinematic is a fucking masterpiece

It's the same with EVERY SEQUEL EVER!
Just look at Dark Souls 2 as an example: fantastic game, 9/10 sequel to a 9.5/10 game, "worst disgrace to the series ever"
Diablo 3: 9/10 sequel to a 9.5/10 game, "holy shit this sucks"
Can't think of any other examples off the top of my head right now.
DovahSpy Legacy of The Void.
Maybe not every sequel
DovahSpy Mass Effect 3, Dragon Age Inquisition, Dragon Age 2 (it wasn't as good as the first, but it was still good), every COD after 4 (excluding MW3), Diablo 3 (hell there's even a small group of people who think Diablo 2 killed the series). There are more but for the life of me I can't think of them. Oh one more, Dark Souls (the first one), a great many fans of Demons Souls hate the game and call it a rip off (because games can't have spiritual successors right?)
I take it that you haven't been following the development of D3 along from the beginning of it's announcement, release, post release, etc. because all that "bitching" post release is what made the game into its current halfway decent state compared to what it started out as. That's why there are seasons, leaderboards, no more RMAH, the Monster Power feature (which I should note the shift to dynamic difficulty as well), Loot 2.0 (which was a big change and a testament to how shit the prior loot system was), adventure mode, "end-game" goals that isn't just paragoning to infinity (now paragon 2.0). I remember leveling the blacksmith and jeweler for shits because they were totally useless. Also, what about those "randomized/generated maps"? Yeah right I spent 100 hours going through all the difficulties and it seemed static as hell. I think I ran across two or three of those randomized "off the side" quests in that time period as well. Also, what the hell is up with that shitty "enrage" timer? Terribly annoying "feature" that does nothing useful other than screwing the guy who's trying to have fun with not top of the line gear. This of course is just my perspective but I give credit where it's due and that to the community in guiding this franchise into something playable.
Not a Diablo fan, just a Warcraft fan, but damn the story has been nice from what I hear and this here looks far interesting. Well played, Blizzard. Well played.
I spotted a a ugly virgin nerd,c'com boys lets get em
I get chills when Malthael says "no one can stop death."
I saw this game at the store, took a real good look at it, even stopped for a full minute and imagined myself grinding, collecting gear, doing quests, having some late nights and then eventually beating the final boss. I then put the game back down, saved 60$, and can now move on with my life. I reckon 4 out of 5 stars, not bad.
Try maybe 12-13 hours of that beating diablo, unlocking nightmare mode, and doing the same shit again, if you have a monk (and know how to use him) the game doesn't get hard until you unlock hell mode, or play on Master II
Absolutely agree World Engine. After the monumental failure that was D3 I can't see myself paying jay again. The cinematics look nice though.
Jason Stone Jay is long gone.
Malthael was a cool villain, but he definitely left his mantle as the Aspect of Wisdom well and truly behind. Some spoilers ahead, so don't expand this post if you care about that.
He's done some startlingly stupid things that I feel he shouldn't have. For starters, he was totally intangible! He should have hunted down the Nephalem right away! The world and all within it would have been his for the taking. Pretty much all he did during the RoS expansion was set himself up for defeat.
And in the end, instead of destroying every demonic presence in existence as he intended, he managed to release all evil back unto the world.
**SLOW CLAP**
maybe he is the youngest udner the angels xD then he can do mistakes & fails too xD
(nah im think that imperius is the youngest, then Auriel, Tyrael... so Itherael & malthael... idk... I think itherael could be the oldest....)
That moment when Malthael said 'No one can stop Death' sent chills down my spine when I first watched this. It still does.
He has to be a hero in Heroes of the Storm ! Also why did he spared Tyrael ?
Johan Dale Malthael has a hatred of anything demonic. Humanity, in the Diablo universe, are the result of reproduction between Angels and Demons. That's why Malthael killed the horadrim, they are, in part, demon. However, Tyrael, even if he became mortal, still has a purely angelic soul, hence why Malthael felt no desire to kill him.
Also, plot armor.
Verunme So the reaper... is a "good" guy ?
Johan Dale more like half mad
Filologia Angielska Alright.
Johan Dale He doesn't care whether a human is good or evil, he kills them all anyway. Hence why he's a villain. From his point of view, he's the good guy (unlike say, Diablo, who knows he's evil, and likes being evil).
Diablo 3 is good, Diablo expansions will be good, and Diablo 4 will be amazing. People calm down and don't complain. In the end you bought the game.
Big fan on D1 and 2 here, didn't buy D3, "The money grab and parody demon lord". Tried it at a friend's house, meh.
Read the comments and see for yourself how DIablo 3 failed. Diablo 3 may have destroyed the Diablo series. Enormous fan of D2 here, and I haven't (and _won't_) be picking up D3.
ZobmieRules lol D2 was okay, but hey I am not a 40 year old man playing the older games I'm 19, and I like them all. So yeah to the people who don't like it that's your own personal issue lol get with the program.
AnimeHDEvolution
And I'm 17. Age has nothing to do with this, dude. -_-

"Wah, Diablo III wasn't a carbon copy of my beloved Diablo II, therefore it's a horrible failure!"
A majority of the biggest issues people had with D3 on release have been addressed; there was initially a sizable amount of content and replayability and recent updates (plus the expansion) have only added to it; it was a commercial success and despite the bits of controversy here and there, it was a critical success as well.
Diablo III did not kill the Diablo franchise, nor was a failure. Your opinion leads you to see it in a negative light and that's fine, just bear in mind that opinion is not fact.
It's 2019 and I'm still in love with this trailer
Its 2022 same feeling
Blizzard should make a Movie of this :o
+Adam Hemming I'd pay good money to see that movie. That would be too awesome for words! =)
+way2cool93 Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo. All have good stories to tell and it would be amazing to see all of them made into good movies. I really hope Warcraft does very good numbers so that they can continue.
+Adam Hemming lets see if blizzard can break the chain of bad gaming movies with warcraft first, then do diablo
yea man >.<
about the 5 angels to the now
I love how Blizzard made Tyrael's powers so ambiguous and what he is so nebulous that he can become as strong or as weak, or whatever he needs to be for the story.
We in the writing biz call that "Good eatin'!" which means "derp-de-derp-de-derp-de-doo, I'm a good writer, and so are you! I made a rhyme, I do it all the time...*gasp!* I did it again, perhaps I'll do it a-a....again!"
-Sincerely,
A guy on the Blizzard writing staff. Which isn't to be confused with a staff, a staff can be both Gandalf's weapon of choice, which isn't to be confused with his sword, but his long, white pole, that he likes to stroke lightly with his hands and rest against his weary head, or smash over the heads of others... Or it can be a group of people who work for things or under stuff, or do things for stuff'n'people. You can even have a staff where you stuff people. Usually dead people. Or stuff people sexually, we call that porn, you stuff various holes in them. Yup, lots of staffs, or staves if you are Gandalf.
Right Gandalf?
"Right!"
Thanks, Gandalf.
Might wanna lay off of the coffee dude.
What the fuck's a coffee? I only lay on a pile of staffs, er staves, not penises. That's for sure.
Right Gandalf?
"Right!"
Thanks, Gandalf.
Wow - hard to believe this is almost 7 years old now. Doesn't seem all that long ago when I was anxiously anticipating this expansion.
This game is a cinematic masterpiece all the way through the bass game to the expansion. I'm happy to say diablo 3 is my all time favorite game
Best Grim Reaper voice
"No one can stop.. Death!"
the scene where the soldier gets ripped of and his soul is try to kinda resist...so fucking epic
"No one can stop death"
Gets one shotted on torment 10.
Dude ur not a true blizzard fan. You can't one shot him.
@@livezezian6900 yeah, I don't understand what a joke is either.
Ur right he has to be 2 shorted since he technically has 2 phases that you can't skip
@@wreckingball6600 Just use a DoT
finally after 4 years i'm about to get it ;)
If anyone is up I'd like to play as well :P
just going back to it tonight. downloading right now, be reading the guide i got and used time ago when I was Naphalem! lol!!
Man before they slightly nerfed Malthael his fight was brutal, especially in phase 2
Next time be a Grey Knight
Adeptus Astartes This Guy. What about an Inquisitor for the Ordo Xenos or Ordo Malleus?
+RadDemon A Grey Knight cannot be corrupted by the powers of Chaos. While anyone else can be!
Their gene-seed isn't derived from one of the Emperor's sons but from The Emperor himself. They also have the highest amount of terminator armours that have a chunk of the armour of the emperor embedded into them.
To make it more understandable for non 40k fans: they're not servants of God, nor angels. But literal children of God.
rather ironically, considering the emperor never wanted to be worshipped as a god. Didnt work out too well in the end

+Adeptus Astartes
Probably Kaldor Draigo can permanently kill Diablo....is he got off the Warp Dust first...
Man, those blizzard guys know how to make some fantastic CG cinematics. Wish they made a full length movie!
Hurry up and make a movie Blizzard. We all want one.
For those who still did not notice after all this years.
Tyrael sword can't kill Malthael because he believes that what he does is justice so the sword won't kill him
Malthael can't kill Tyrael because he is pure and has no evil essence in him.
Can u explain why malthael is evil?
Bought Diablo 3 on release: Fool me once, Blizzard- shame on you. But now a follow up? Naw son, naw.
You'd be surprised :)
d3 is not a fail. It's lacks high-level content so much and forces you to do the same storyline over and over again - yes, but the setting! the atmosphere! the level design! its a marvelous, masterpiece game that only misses one part - variety. When you farm act 3 at inferno for 2481th time it most likely bothers you as hell. But when you complete the story for the very 1st time - isn't it marvelous? You can't force a player to run through the same story 4 times (easy, normal, nightmare, inferno) if the story is not worth it.
I know many will disagree with me, but if you think over it for a while, you will probably find it fair.
i agree with op same reason next time ca releases a game i wont buy it right away.
i agree with james. first few playthough was most enjoyable but now its just grinding for gear so you can show yourself as the most powerful nephalem. i am looking forward to adventure mode and bounties in RoS. itl freshen up a game thats not what it could have been but still not bad iether.
James Sunderland
Atmosphere is nothing like in Diablo 1 and it was made in -96.
I got literal CHILLS down my back when Maltheal said,
"...No one can stop death."
I couldn't stop shaking from his voice and how creepily epic it sounded. Jeebuz. ;o;
It's comedic how all these Diablo 3 haters are essentially using the same argument which has been addressed several times. Their arguments are basically things that happen in the previous Diablo games and all other similar games. If you don't like Diablo 3 then that's your own personal opinion, don't attempt to convey to the rest of the audience that everyone hates Diablo 3. Evidently, it's the same haters that tend to coincide with the lower end of the IQ spectrum. Moreover, they can't seem to comprehend simple rebuttals and will(like a spoiled immature cry baby) tend to argue their point as solid facts regardless of what anyone else decrees. If your brain lacks elasticity and unable to comprehend change then you shouldn't be playing this game to begin with. Simple minded haters always tend to gravitate to simple mechanics in simple games. There is no point in arguing with them since they lack basic courtesy and respect to uphold a simple civil argument. I for one loved this game regardless of anyone's opinion.
I agree. To be honest I just bought the game few days ago and I am glad that I bought it. At first I just took demo but 1 hour later I already had full game. I don't get those fanboys who are telling that D3 is shit.. I like it and so does my gf. We both play it and we both enjoy it. Gonna take RoS also for sure.
Jaan M Its an okay game i'll admit but compared to Diablo 2 its straight trash...
Corey Noneofyourbuisness You forgot to include "In my personal opinion." Prior to your comment. I have played Diablo 2, personally, i prefer Diablo 3 by a landside. I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
Jaan M jesus christ please get RoS. if you already like original D3, the expension will blow your mind.
Jaan M Don't let anyone influence your decisions. Make sure you experience it for yourself without negative thoughts by others constantly pervading your mind. Good choice :)
2:42 is probably the most terrifying thing to happen to anyone.. literally your soul stolen from your body
I came here to calm myself from Diablo Immortal announcment.
Game is so much freaking fun. I just restarted after not playing for a year. It is all I want to do right now.
so is this like some kind of expansion pack or dlc or something. is it coming out soon?
lol noob alert and yes its the new exp
WayneTwitch
lol nerd alert
how the fuck are you going to say nerd alert? look where you're at dumb fuck looking at a Diablo 3 video oh shit! NERD ALERT.
see how stupid you seem?
I said noob alert dumb fuck not nerd alert
WayneTwitch I think they ( I don't know what gender they are) were talking to Erick.
Can you guys tell me where I can find more animations like this? Angel fights mostly. This Diablo thing seems really badass.
well well, then the #1 you'll want to see is Diablo 3 Act 1 ending cinematic :) you're welcome
WOW, this truly is a masterpiece great work
that sequence of him taking that soul is still the best cinematic of a videogame
Now tyreal's fatal mistake was standing in the death cloud trying to soak up all of that damage with no health globes around and he probably didn't think to buy any health pots either. Plus he had no group diversity running with mostly horadric mages. He relied too heavily on his cooldowns as well, maybe should have had more than one cd binded to his hotbar.
When I can't name the best blizzard trailer I know they are doing something magnificent and unbelievable.
Where was Death when Diablo was owning all the Angles in Act 4?
+gurpinder uppal Your comment is 3 months old but i'll answer it anyway, Malthael (Death) was in the Pandemonium
Still to this day...."No one...can stop...death." gives me CHILLS
You know, I've played all the Diablos and their expansions and I have to say: Diablo III is NOWHERE NEAR as bad as people say it was. Granted, it's not as good as 2 and some of the diologue is cringeworthy, but it was a good game. Not incredible, but good. The problem, I think, is that people set their expectations too high and were horribly disappointed.
SrMichaelBucket When it first came out it had a lot of bad mechanics. Reaper of Souls fixed everything that made it bad and just made it an overall more enjoyable game.
Syntherus I hear people talking about the story more than anything.
SrMichaelBucket
People have their complaints about the story. I have some as well, but I don't really mind it too much. For the most part it was the mechanics. Now that the game is fixed they're focusing their attention on something else. Don't you know how these things work? People always have to complain about something. Eliminate one thing and they'll complain about another.
Blizzard seriously know how to put out a great cinematic trailer, they so need to make movies in this style.
Malthael was all like:
Reap, Kazeshini.
They never fail with these videos. Just amazing.
Cheers...

***** lol it's like "watch the cool wicher 3 trailer!" after this crappy video
Occult Factory
Witcher, wtcher,, everthing witcher..... remember! No one can stop death!!!
+Occult Factory of you have played dablo 3 than you know that the art style os a ongoing theme
What is it a movie or game??
Yyyyyyy6jh
Is the soundtrack they used during this available to download or buy? I checked iTunes and Amazon and nothing...
we can stop death.... just not on hardcore mode against trees.... fuck trees
3:55, Matlthael's voice was fuck*ng BADASS!
if PoE had the PR blizzard does D3 would never have stood a chance to begin with
Kinda agree. D3 is not close to D2. it feals like a whole other.... arcade game.
its not bad. Its just not "Diablo" to me.
Actually, I loved PoE's talent/skill map..it's epic. But, I cannot stand the character graphics. They look like blobs on the screen in comparison to D3...so in regards to POE, I would think it would have been Blizzard's Art design department that would really give POE a name. :)
I do honestly agree, though I do also think it is a bit more than just PR. Blizzard has always been great on their art, presentation and creating amazingly well lasting games graphically.
I don't think Diablo 3 is any different there, but yeah, it doesn't really feel Diablo and thinking the company behind it, you would expect a bit more.
tjd1985 Yup. I have a hard time getting into it as a result.
tjd1985 You are right the looks and the moves are what matter in an RPG. Wait..WHAT? A huge huraah for the D3 audience everyone.
clap
clap
clap
This trailer still gives me goosebumps everytime I watch it..
I wish this was a long 3 hour long amazing movie. Then i wouldnt have to put up with diablo 3 gameplay
I really love blizzard cinematics..the effects are so great
played through 1-2 got halfway through 3 was so disgusted i have yet to return
This cinematic looks cooler than real life at 1080p HD.
Death is as menacing as a teenager here. Seriously, he's not ominous at all.
lol, I was just thinking something similar.
I stand to disagree. If THAT showed up infront of me, I'd probably sh*t myself
1AshesToAshes1
oh, grow a pair, will ya?
1AshesToAshes1 how about YOU go fuck yourself and I go on with my day pretending I didnt just waste my time on you.
Easy to say when it's a cinematic. If you were anywhere near him in real life you'd cry in the corner, that's the point, to find a character threatening or "ominous" you have to put yourself in the shoes of the people around that character. Only a child would find a 2D animation "menacing".
Gordon Ramsey from Masterclass: “ watch carefully”
Me: ok
i wonder why wisdom became death?
cuz it's smart to die
BECAUSE NO ONE CAN STOP DEATH!
tyrael snatched his job at the end of d3 so he had to get a new one
probably because, as it's usually perceived by our world, death is the inevitable truth of all things.
I can see a corrupted holder of wisdom embracing death as part of its new valued ethics.
. . . And, at the End of Days, Wisdom shall be lost
as Justice falls upon the world of men.
Valor shall turn to Wrath -
and all Hope will be swallowed by Despair.
Death, at last, shall spread its wings over all -
as fate lies shattered forever.
NO ONE CAN STOP DEATH meaning even if he dies your still going to die of old age so gg malthael
Brother Why
Because you took my chair
Can anyone tell me the title of the song where the man's soul is being consumed by malthael? I think it is a beautiful piece.
Blizz always make superrior Cinematics )
"You should all...run like hell!" is Tyrael should have said
I was half expecting someone to jump out of nowhere and take the soulstone and jump into a portal.
Carbotanimation fans understand.
I replayed that last bit several times. Quite the surprise. No one can stop death
LOL, Diablo is becoming like the resident evil franchise, the story never comes to an end, they really reach to extend the story and the games are really getting bad, well thats only if you are a Diablo 1 and 2 fan,, Diable 3, what have you done -_-`
I dunno, I though the premise was good - Death deciding to steal the ultimate source of evil. They came up with an enemy that was just as intimidating as the Lords of Hell. The problem was that the extension was too freaking short, with characters and events being shunted along, almost as if it was rushed.
LordMyron09 I have a question though. Who was that guy? Was he really "death" itself (or its personification)? If so , why does he want the soulstone?
TheDerpReaper That was Malthael the former archangel of wisdom after the renegade demons and angels stole the worldstone and hid it in Arreat mountain it was destroyed (for a reason i cant remember) Malthael went on a long journey in Pandemonium trying to answer why it blew up (creating Arreat crater) and he also went mad trying to answer the mysteries of life and death itself eventually he fell from sight of the Angiris Council and the rest of the council hasnt been the same since.
Diablo 3 wasn't even bad. People bitch and cry, but seriously it is a good game and still is.
AnimeHDEvolution i agree to your statement
which song is that? one that plays during maltjael's entry?
death - angel of wisdom.
That dude melting is the most intense and heart-wrenching scene I have ever witnessed.
Imagine Malthael as the Pandemic be like:
"The face mask, will stop you."
"No one can stop breath."
3:26
Children, rejoice!
Turns out Dumbledore is fine.
Blizzard shouldnt have made Diablo 3, somehow they made the darkest environments and atmospheres seem colourful and not the single bit sense of dread.
I concurr. This entire game is a huge insult to the originals. In 1 & 2 even the feel of the cinematics were different than this.
adrian Lavy Hey, they tried and I think the cinematic is pretty good.
Are you scared ?
Sir, I could not have said it any better myself :D
Dan B The mere fact that you said, "...they tried..." and "..is pretty good.." is the entire summary of this game and the quality of it, if you said something along the lines of "They fucking nailed it" and "The cinematic rocked my world" then I would still be playing it :D
0:07 that music....so beautiful
Just make a damn movie...
Theyd ruin it.
@@AudioJeep why would you say that?
@@kaldorei0160 whens the last time you saw a good movie? Like a really good movie that lived up to or exceeded your expectations?
Blizzard's cinematics are always fucking cool, the details are unbeliavable. I mean, just look at 2:50 ... amazing work, I just wish the game itself was that exciting.
Blizzard we need a movie. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.
I havnt played the game but i got a question so since tyraels sword couldnt do anything to malthael does that mean his cause is just?
Cant wait for the day when games literally look like this. And I know that day will come sooner than later.
Daniel Niewczas Ever heard of The Order 1886? Below average when it comes to gameplay if you ask me, but it looks like you're playing a cinematic.
Tristan Gray I have heard of it, Ill go check it out :P.
Daniel Niewczas Look up Square Enix Tech demo for Direct X 12 on YT.
EnigmaHood Holy shit
Tristan Gray Or you can just watch it on youtube. Same effect and you don't lose an single penny
