Darksiders: All Samael Cutscenes

(re upload fixed choppy footage)
He's my absolute favorite character in this game, and every scene with him is gold, he reminds me of the interpretation of the devil in the movie Legend with Tim Cury playing the devil, same story there, best scenes where with him in it... but honestly he's 90% of that movie's awesomeness, while Samael is probably just 45% of this game's awesomeness, still he gets the top spot in my book as an artistic design. Darksiders has some top notch voice acting cast too, Troy Baker; Mark Hamill; Vernon Wells plays Samael(voice modified); Liam O'Brien as War has the perfect stoic monotonous tone to his voice of an otherworldy enforcer, it helps that he's one of my favorite VA's in many anime dubs, Gaara(Naruto) Jushiro Ukitake(Bleach) or where I first got to know of his style, just as some examples

The first game had it's hooks in me from the first moment, must have played it 5x or so, got the original platinum and warmastered platinum, for some reason the sequels couldn't captivate me, never finished them.

@@bored77551 that’s because every game is completely different from the last

[@bored77551]

@@Nichi-Ji There where things that I liked about 2nd game, I got about up till around the flying ship? Vague memories. I think I liked the scale and beautiful environments, didn't like the weapons/loot system/upgrade system that much, I have 3/4 games lying here, I could play them, but somehow there's always a game around that I just feel like playing more, it was monster hunter world, now elden ring is here, also I have less time to play than I used to. Might have to finish the series at some point, don't think I'll cover them on the channel tho. It's definitely creative to have 4 different games, but also a bit of a gamble since people may not enjoy it if it's a different type, like the 4th being the most different

[@Nichi-Ji]

@@bored77551 yeah it is a gamble but it’s also what makes the darksiders series unique. Darksiders 2 was a mixed bag for me. Like the mechanics and combat were obviously a serious step up from 1 but the story got bogged down by too many fetch quests that always involved getting 3 of an item. 3 I actually really like but it can be a brutal slog at times with how squishy your health bar is. Genesis is actually surprisingly really good once you get past the top down view thing. War plays pretty much identical to DS1 which you’d probably enjoy and Strife is also fun to play with. My personal ranking would be 1, genesis, 3 and then 2

[@bored77551]

@@Nichi-Ji A bit like how I'd rank the souls/ER atm, dks1, elden ring, dks3, dks2. Tho I might give ER top spot, not sure yet

[@rpsnider85]

In the Darksiders universe Samael is the most powerful Demon of all, he even has more Raw power than Lucifer (whom he refers to as master). Lillith explains that shes drawn to raw power and that no Demon in ANY realm can match Samael in that regard. In the comic Lillith is also right by his side and Death and the others go talk to Samael about something the demons have done, and remark that hes almost certainly about to take over for Lucifer based on how powerful hes become. He didnt actually have anything to do with what they were investigating but at the same time hes nearly omnipotent, in the second game he knows Death is from the future instantly remarking "so the council sends only one Horseman, even to the past" wondering outloud whyd they only send one when itd likely take all 4 to take him on of he was actually trying. He either can see the past, present, and future all simultaneously or he is simply aware of the ENTIRETY of his own being at all times and places regardless of when he presently is. The Destroyer obviously was much weaker than him, which is why they had to split his power into 5 different hearts, 4 of which were given to the Chosen to stand guard over him and keep him prisoner, while the last 5th of his power remained inside himself. Yet when he gets all his power back, he effortlessly opens a portal directly to the Destoyers spire proving that his power overwhelms anything the Destroyer could put up as wards to keep people out. I hope they continue the story, because hes an Amazing character and while hes clearly not a good guy, hes not pure evil either. He has principles and he abides by them, always, even when others dont and do things he doesnt agree with. He was also watching the Horsemen slaughter the rest of the Nephilim in Eden, not deigning to help anyone just sitting there watching it all go down. Id say hes clearly the most powerful entity in the stories thus far, but none of the Horsemen themselves have actually demonstrated their full power either, their full powers are locked away by the Council until/unless the final seal is broken and they ride out for the end war. Death and War are the two most powerful of the Horsemen with Fury in third and Strife bringing up the final spot, but Samael is probably still far more powerful than all 4 of them together in terms of actual raw power...but raw power doesnt necessarily mean they cant win against him, particularly since if he saw that they were going to win hed likely cease his actions and choose to live instead of be slaughtered.

[@alan6031]

all that makes Death standing his ground in a fight against him more impressive. Samael is one of if not the most interesting characters in ds. As he said, to enter the mind of Lucifer or his own, is to enter madness

[@wilcals5294]

Well, whoever managed to split his power in order to restrain him is much more clever than him. His great raw power obviously didn't help in that situation. War asked why he challenged the Destroyer. So he tried something but failed because someone is definitely more powerful than him. Could be the Destroyer at that time or Lucifer. So him being the most powerful demon is still up for discussion. Lilith did say she's drawn to raw power but did she say it has to be the strongest one? I mean, in terms of raw power, she's most likely weak compared to Straga or any other boss demons in there. She could be drawn to said demons as well but no. It's because they are dim witted compared to Samael or Lucifer.

Have never played the games but would love to see it have one playing as Samuel.

[@bored77551]

They're all very different in terms of gameplay, featuring the 4 horsemen. I have tried 2 and 3, but could never really get very invested in those, Imo this one is still the best, it is like old zelda games, mixed with a bit of old god of war. I went for platinum on this one and finished it a couple of times. 2 had randomized loot which is one of the reasons I stopped playing it, it's kind of like the new zelda were you might find a maybe useful item in a chest, I'm much more a fan of hugely impactful loot. You find a treasure chest and inside is something that'll change the game completely vs oh, it's 10 fire arrows or a variant of a weapon type that I don't want. 3 I don't know much about, and 4 has isometric shooter gameplay. Agree, the bad guys are always way more awesome. I love the idea of being able to play an unstoppable bad guy in a singleplayer setting... we have seen here and there something like it, dead by daylight, if it was not multiplayer vs type game and you played as those monsters in a singleplayer setting that would be awesome. We had the evil within executioner DLC, which come very close to how great it would feel to play an overpowered bad guy character, and almost gets there, unfortunately there's the fact that it's such a short bit of gameplay and it's also a bit arcadey/arena style. You have the infamous/prototype game series, which also let you get a bit of a taste of being a overpowered badguy, unfortunately you still have kind of normal looking bad guys. I did find it funny how similar those games were. Some older games: ps2: the suffering & the suffering ties that bind, ps1: nightmare creatures, left a strong impact on me in terms of horror and gore. Well you catch me at a good moment were I have too much time to ramble, sorry for that.

[@bored77551]

It has a few characters which are very cool in the angels and demons theme, but this is just the scenes from one character that I really enjoyed, there are many more characters who play a role, the smokey fellow who doggedly follows war, the mysterious merchant, the council of stoney faces, a bunch of army people with wings, Azrael is most representative of an awesome force of absolute justice and the angelic, then Samael is the most awesome character representative of the demonic, but the game has always been very mysterious about the scope of his power, the real force in the game is supposedly the council of stoney faces (sorry, i don't remember the official name) also, i've not played the other 3 games so I only know a bit of the lore on this one. Still I enjoyed this game so much I got platinum on 2 different versions of it, it's like a Zelda game, but more bloody... Diablo series of games probably has the angels and demons theme that beats this game, and some awesome characters too

[@wishsuccess5995]

It has demons, angels, and the four horsemen… the whole game isn’t just about Demons

[@JackTheRipperk5]

​@@bored77551 The characters you mention are: Smokey Fellow - Watcher Mysterious Merchant - Vulgrim The Council of stone faces - The Charred Counsil Army of people with wings - Angels Azrael, Angel of Death By the way, Samael is probably such a powerful Demon because he is a fallen angel, and he can also increase his power, although I'm not sure how he does it, maybe by absorbing the blood of opponents, after all, one of his titles is Bloody Prince.

[@thegreenreaper6660]

Because he is a Fallen Angel. His inverted wings resemble his downfall from Heaven to Hell. just like Lucifer himself... Samael is a far more interesting and important character the nyou imagine. He's nicknamed the Prince of Demons, where as Lucifer is nicknamed, the Prince of Lies! And think on this; The Devil(Lucifer: Samael's Master!) chose Abaddon as his Leader! along with Tiamat, the Stygian, the Griever, Silitha, and Straga as his chosen, where Samael was clearly more powerful then all of them combined(Quote: Silitha!, the 4th Guardian/Chosen, and 'collector of stories', probably the wisest of the Chosen?)..... Why did Lucifer choose to imprison Samael, and TAKE his power, instead of empower Samael to be his Destroyer instead? Would Samael become too powerful enough to actually overthrow the Dark Prince himself then?.... Interesting thought imo...

[@bored77551]

Well, I don't know how it's supposed to be pronounced, but I've always preferred the 1st one myself, and I've also heard it being spoken like this in various media. There is a video of it being pronounced in the Hellboy movie here on youtube (I just youtubed hellboy vs sammael) video title: HELLBOY Clip - "Hellboy vs. Samael" (2004) channel: JoBlo Superheroes Sticking with the angels and demons theme, there's another movie which features a Sammael in: Gabriel (2007), not sure if they misspelled it, well, it's a pretty cool portrayal of angels and fallen angels.
