I like how you go through the walkthrough and explain and play the game as if you feel and talk as the character would.

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.

Huge compliment, thank you!!

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."

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.

diablo the demon of understanding, he knows how good and evil work so he plans around that.

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!

This is top-tier story telling! Such a classic game and I’m hoping blizzard remembers their strength was always with ensuring quality products.

I hope in the chapters of act 4, We could know something about the angel Hadriel and what an angel like him doing in the plains of hell.

Its crazy!! Last time i played this game i was still in middle school. I didnt even realize how close to the brink of destruction everything was!

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.

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.

Ormus is mentioned in the book, Holy Blood Holy Grail. He live in Alexandria Egypt, about 200 A.D. and was sort of a precursor to Christian Rozenkruts. Well something like that. The name is used as a sort of riddle or divice. Having many meanings, all in one. True story.

Amazing!

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!

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?

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. 👍

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'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. 😊

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

What build did you use? I personally liked frost paladins because everybody were so slowed that frenzy just made minsemeat out of the enemeies.

The voice actress that voices Natalya was on the Amanda show. The more ya know

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.

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.

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 :)
