I knew that was him!! But I remember his voice from the movie with Richard Gere and Sean Connery about King Arthur, Lancelot called the First Knight! Love his voice acting here in Diablo 4 though. Very well done, perfect for the part! I love how they are putting out this backstory, videos and all. It is so well done!! Love it =)
@@shayed_6668 They are but in terms of quality and nailing key points mostly along with engaging background and the length being short to where it captivates people and keeps them interested more so than rhykker or others have been able. Which is fine because often enough more people seek to learn more and will stumble upon their videos as well. They may not watch as long but some will and they will be engaged just from these shorts alone which help bring more people into the world of Diablo and it's history which many probably didn't know existed outside of the games. The books and in depth breakdowns is what rhykker and others have done which is awesome. But this is great as well.
I feel that way as well. Along w/the voice actor for Tyrael (also voices the white tiger in WoW & a few others.) Blizz has found some really great voice actors for Diablo for sure!
They always do, but that's because marketing sells games, not the quality of it. They want to make as much money on release for quick cash, like all AAA studios do. No doubt their team and resources are quite large when comparing it to the dev team.
I've gotta hand it to the team responsible for these videos, and the entire marketing strategy for Diablo IV - Excellent stuff, guys. EDIT: 666 likes - Can we stop it there? This is my Iron Maiden moment.
What many gaming companies don't understand is this is the proper marketing for games, this is all content that is part of the game. From their lofi albums, lore... its just awesome!
@@tabiBLAKEMORE I personally disagree with the "and the entire marketing strategy" part. All the rest in every top comment under this video is what I think as well. Wonderful videos, great writing, beautiful art. Those get me more hyped than any gameplay video.
@@enrarenrok1605 true, ive seen all of rhykker's videos and nothing beats Ralph Ineson. dude's voice is perfect for this story. can't wait for the rest
Everything they are doing preceding the launch is nothing less than an amazing job: the dev blogs, the live streams, the lofi music, the betas, these amazing videos. Well done.
This really makes you think when you know that Inarius was considering killing the Nephilim and Lilith wanted to protect them. Can't wait to start playing and getting more lore as we go.
I would have done exactly what Inarius did in his situation. It's a horrible situation to be in. Lilith killed her own brothers and sister because she had a plan for her children. Who btw, will mostly die when that plan is put into action.
@@writinggamer8059 Yeah that was one area skipped however this is more from the eyes of the scholars rather than what we are given through the books and so on. They most likely do not know about the entire truth. Lilith was more enraged because she feared losing them was less of a motherly instinct and more of a you cannot take my army away as she believed they could be controlled and as they are now most definitely as they were before...definitely not as hopefully these shorts get to but the Nephilim easily overcome both angel and demon with minimal effort even inarius empowered by the worldstone couldn't stand a chance. Things would have been much more different if that was the case.
this is like create bible again XD how reality started and mortals, humans left behind and angels just left away...i dig it! Biablo 4 is like reboot of series?
Let's give all audiobooks to this guy from now on, shall we? What a great voice to listen to. Also, the story is fascinating, please make a series of all the lore. You could do wow as well, in similar fashion.
Everyone who was involved in the making of these videos deserves a raise. These videos are incredible and do such a great job explaining the lore behind the games.
never, she's the daughter of hatred... She only seeks her own selfish gain. Inarius thinks of the bigger picture that's the difference. Liliths cause may seem righteous, protecting her children but trust me. Inarius knows and sees the bigger picture and will be painted as the "bad guy". Just like Illidan.
The genius of Diablo’s story is that it’s so simple and recognizable at its core. Even as it gets more complicated, it’s easy to see how it ended up like it did.
Providing the epic backstory with the artwork is a powerful combination leading up to the game's release in a few weeks. I have most of the Diablo artwork and stories in collections of books, but these videos really add a spark of life to the eternal conflict! Can't wait for the next one!!!
Honestly, these episodes are something I never knew I needed. Having known much of the Diablo universe lore, hearing it told by Lorath just adds the icing in the cake. This is so good, so perfect. I absolutely love it and want so much more.
As someone who did tons and tons of reading about the names of items and people and towns in diablo 2, I know a lot of this already, and it's so lovely to see ot brought to light and given form.
I can't even begin to imagine what Lorath Nahr has seen, done, and gone through in the aftermath of Diablo 3. Never thought that they'd bring that character to life and give him such a spotlight. Ralph Ineson definitely brings such strong vibes of a jaded and old soul to a character I never guessed would have been brought back.
Gotta say, I love the moral grey area the characters of Inarius and Lilith seem to set up. I would love a storyline in D4 where there isn't a clear cut villian between the two but rather just our individual interpretation. If they pull that off it could be one of the most entertaining and immersive stories ever told in the series.
The first time I played Diablo I was a young man alone in a house that I had to take care of and since then I have enjoyed every second that I have been able to play this saga. More than 20 years since that day and today I can continue enjoying this, more than a cult game, more than stories that let your imagination run wild. thank you for continuing with this that is part of us.
this is so good, Im glad you guys give the community the oppotunity to be on the same level in regards to the backstory this way the ones that wanna go down the story rabbit hole, but never read the books or watched other summaries etc can have a perfect immersive start into Diablo 4 thank you!
I love that the tradition of fantastic artwork and cinematics has become a staple of this franchise. The art teams and the marketing teams for both D3 and D4 have done an awesome job of slowly turning up the heat of the hype until the fanbase is just bubbling over in anticipation of launch. So great to see the lore being fleshed out in such a cool way!
Judging from the comments I read, a lot of us stayed a while and listened. Ugh goosebumps! I read the Book of Cain and was fully immersed, but narrating this with Ralph Ineson's voice is a whole new level! Kudos to the Diablo 4 team for retelling the lore.
I could listen to this stuff ALL day. Blizzard has hiccups with a lot of their projects, but when they nail it boy do they drive it home. Ralph Ineson's narration is absolutely stunning, would love to listen to Lorath read some of the full lore books out there for us. Need many more of these videos!
Thank you for the insight, and information. The voice acting and narroration is also spot on. But as someone who's only played the games and never read the novels. This actually explains so much in terms to events from past games, etc.
overwatch team couldn't even finish the story mode... the thing that millions of overwatch fans have been anticipating since the launch of that first animated story trailer. I was so hype when that trailer launched. It was like Pixar levels of writing and directing. In that short feature I was ready to jump into the world of overwatch and see these characters story and world evolve... instead we got an arena shooter. Cant imagine the sheer disappointment I had. Blizzard was dead to me at that point. They had completely given up and forgotten their roots. Which was solid gameplay and design, wrapped in a surprisingly fun story telling narrative. Regardless of game, whether it was warcraft 2, star craft 1,2, or diablo 1,2, these games were formative for many pc gamers growing up in the mid 90s to early 2000s. It didn't seem to matter the genre they brought something special to each one. Seems like after the success of WoW they just didn't know how to manage their projects anymore and with their acquisition by activision it became less about releasing a great product and more about maximizing profit, via whatever short term predatory method corporate deems best liked by shareholders and the board. Diablo 4 seems like they at the very least have tried to build a game and unfortunately for the gamers, also satisfy their corporate overlords. But the game itself looks solid and the lore actually has me wanting to dive into the story. So while there are lots of things I hate with their monetization schemes, even just the ones we know about, I am actually excited for the game. Hopefully they wont completely destroy the experience with too much in game monetization and fomo. Which the seasons feel heavily wrapped in already. Guess we'll have to see how much bad share price decisions actually hurt their game their share price.
The saddest part is that Lilith sat out to manipulate Inarius, but then loved him, and never set out to betray him again, he however, assumed that she had and would, because of her nature, but she did not, she was willing and able to overcome her nature, which no one, not even Lorath or any other, give her credit for.
Honestly, I can't get 100% of what Lorath is saying but his low voice is so cool that you shouldn't turn on subtitles and, instead, enjoy his narration and let your ears adapt to English. I believe you'll get everything by the end of this serie.
I think these Vids a really needed for most players Who have no clue what the Diablo Games even are about really. The Diablo Lore is so awesome in my opinion. Love it!
Truly enjoying the storytelling and art so far. Makes the whole experience immersive and I feel like I’m first-hand experiencing the events unwind themselves. Can’t wait for June.
The timing they used to release this Lore series couldnt me more perfect; new players to Diablo like me can have a deep dive into the origins of the Diablo universe and can understand the role of important characthers we will see in the game, adding a lot of immersion and understanding of the story while playing the game. I feel even more incentivized to play, even if its my first Diablo, well done.
These are excellent videos! I hope they put them all out on a physical disc once the game launches! I'd love to have a video history of the entire Diablo lore on hand whenever I choose to watch it.
These make me stay a while and listen. After the first two sentences I had to run out and stock my fridge with ale, however. A decision I do not regret. Thanks for setting the stage for D4 by explaining the great lore of the Diablo franchise, especially to all the new players that didn't join the fray until D3 and are unaware of what came before.
This is absolutely S tier content. I have never been more interested and excited about a story involving Diablo in my life, and I played the first one which captivated me. Cudos to the team that has created this!
Beautifully put together. What a fantastic rendition of the story we have been assembling from decentralized wiki articles. Hugely optimistic about the Diablo franchise's future if this is the quality of content being published. Thank you Blizzard! June 2nd cannot come soon enough!
I love the story set up that they're doing with these vids. We have a great opening plot presentation of Lilith + Inarius and their conflict over sanctuary. It would be amazing of blizzard to use this to subvert expectations and throw a crazy plot twist somewhere in the campaign for D4. I won't hold my breath but i can still hope.
Oh this is awesome, keep it going! So relaxing hearing you Narrate as I fall asleep on the couch on this freezing night with the crackling of the fire in the fireplace
I love the Diablo lore, great job guys, these videos are awesome, well made, beautiful art work and design... please keep them coming 😊... Lorath the true successor to the iconic voice that was Deckard Cain... I'm truly impressed
What intriguing visuals... that smoked up voice of the narrator sets just the right atmosphere for the stories. Looking forward to the 1st/2nd of June... Veteran Deluxe gang eow✨️✊️
Say what you will about Diablo 4 as a game but I like this storytelling. Especially the way the illustrations are drawn with the sound effects accompanying them.
OMG, I seen on mobile notification on episode 2, so I took beer and went to PC to watch and it started "You have returned, and with ale this time..." this made my day :D
I love how this started by saying "you've returned, and with ale this time." because I literally just watched the first video then went to get a beer before starting this one. Spot on!
Never in my dreams would I have imagined a worthy successor to Deckard Cain. I'm glad Lorath proved me wrong.
💯💯
Lorath is/was always cool. Being a good bro to Tyrael. I was happy in his reveal in the beta and have a large part of D4

WOrthy exchange for Deckard cain! it takes time we get to know this new guy but he is good lore taller!
Cain is irreplaceable, but elder Lorath (and his voice actor) is a good torch bearer.
I think of Riddick with his voice.
Ralph Ineson deserves way more credit for his acting in the witch
One of my favorite horror films
I knew that was him!! But I remember his voice from the movie with Richard Gere and Sean Connery about King Arthur, Lancelot called the First Knight! Love his voice acting here in Diablo 4 though. Very well done, perfect for the part! I love how they are putting out this backstory, videos and all. It is so well done!! Love it =)
Absolutely love that movie. I have a figure of black Philip on my desk at work.

he's gonna break blizzcon if he's invited. peps gonna be so excited to hear him on stage.
I truly love how the painting is coloring little by little, a fantastic piece of art here, very inspiring !
I'm so fascinated by this art piece. I've had it as my desktop background for a while now.. It's so fkn beautiful xD
Love to watch how paint and ink dry to the digital wall!
The way the color was filled in and washed out was amazing.
I absolutely love this series.
This is not just for those new to Diablo IV, but for everyone as this tells a deeper story of the background of the eternal conflict. Well done.

@@Touchin-Grass Yup, and their presentation and accessibility is always 10/10

It would be amazing of blizzard to use this to subvert expectations and throw a crazy plot twist somewhere in the campaign for D4. I won't hold my breath but i can still hope.
Oh this is awesome, keep it going! So relaxing hearing you Narrate as I fall asleep on the couch on this freezing night with the crackling of the fire in the fireplace
I love the Diablo lore, great job guys, these videos are awesome, well made, beautiful art work and design... please keep them coming 😊... Lorath the true successor to the iconic voice that was Deckard Cain... I'm truly impressed
What intriguing visuals... that smoked up voice of the narrator sets just the right atmosphere for the stories. Looking forward to the 1st/2nd of June... Veteran Deluxe gang eow✨️✊️
I could listen to Ralph Ineson read a cookbook, man
Ralph Ineson has such a notable voice, really digging these videos
8:00 *Even the most righteous may fall, given the right push in the wrong direction.*
Wise words, indeed.
Now this is peak pre-marketing right here! Loved every second!
I must say, I’m really enjoying these.
Succinctly put, and very compellingly told.
Say what you will about Diablo 4 as a game but I like this storytelling. Especially the way the illustrations are drawn with the sound effects accompanying them.
The entire story around this game and it's lore is absolutely amazing. When do we get movie series with all of this!?
More creativity and inspired work in two 8-min short stories than the entirety of the game it's meant to help promote. Stoked for this, bunmed for D4.
OMG, I seen on mobile notification on episode 2, so I took beer and went to PC to watch and it started "You have returned, and with ale this time..." this made my day :D
I love how this started by saying "you've returned, and with ale this time." because I literally just watched the first video then went to get a beer before starting this one. Spot on!
Ralph Ineson is the actor who voices Lorath.
He is pretty awesome in all of his roles!
Totally off topic. The story tellers voice is so great. This is almost an ASMR vid. So good.
