Diablo 1 VS. Diablo 3: Battle For Second Place

Diablo 1 is a legendary game that transformed the industry for the better. Diablo 3 is a game in that same industry. So between the progenitor and successor of Diablo 2, which game holds up best when considering the story, the gameplay, and the thematical choices? I'm going to guess it's the one that doesn't charge me for more character classes.
Thanks for watching! After a long haul of Diablo 2 related content, I felt like switching gears and discussing Diablo content. I hope you enjoy, and I can guarantee you'll never hear the word "Diablo" more than you will in this video. If you enjoyed, I'd greatly appreciate if you subscribed, liked the video, commented on the video, and even hit the bell. Just make sure to really hit the bell as hard as you can (it deserves it).

When talking about D1 movement: “You walk like you just shit your pants which makes sense, given the circumstance.” Fucking lol’d.

[@connorquinn700]

Ya haha. Fwiw there are a few nice mods for D1. Devilutionx for example has a speed slider and seems otherwise mostly a vanilla experience so even this downside of D1 you can fix. Theres a couple rewords as well, one of which revamps the graphics and resolution to the point that I would argue it rivals D2

Also, Deckerd Cain was killed by a butterfly. The last of the Horadim killed by a pitful butterfly. I don't know why in almost every single modern Blizzard game, people of wisdom are treated as disposable or don't matter anymore. And how the protagonist magiclly figure it out what to do. Who needs consistency anyway... Also, "The Chosen one" storyline from D3 literally invalidates Diablo 1 and 2. It basically meant: "You didn't defeat the 3 Prime evils because you put effort. It was because you were the Nephelon. It was your destiny"

I liked the walking pace in D1. It's literally dungeon crawling with the speed at which you move. It also enforces the idea that your character is cautiously treading deeper and deeper into hell which fits the tone the game wants to portray: dread and terror. That is until you get the teleport spell.

[@Doc_Fun]

EHhhHHhhhHHhh Gameplay-wise, sure. D2 improves upon D1 in pretty much every gameplay aspect. Theming-wise, you can kinda see why D3 is the way it is because it tried to imitate D2 badly. D2 broke from the completely dark, brooding and oppressive atmosphere to give a little more variety, and it did that well but consequently it's a very different experience from 1 and it's up to personal preference on whether you prefer D2 to D1 in that regard. I personally like D1's atmosphere a little better.

In Diablo 2 I have an amazingly fun time (each moment there aren't connection issues to make it fair) and in 3 I had fun, but had forgotten all about 1 and 2 since I was young when I played them, and after going back to 2, then trying 3 it just didn't work. Not to mention how easily you can break d3 and do septillions of damage from a couple items given to you by higher players (literally septillions of damage not exaggerating). Despite having played diablo 1 only about 25 hours in my life it was the game that sucked me in the most. Every dialog and story interaction was perfectly done especially the voice acting. In town you felt like you were standing on one safe big rock surrounded by hellfire and demons and the game was hard to the point of unforgiving especially early on. So I guess diablo 2 is the winner unless I actually manage to get through diablo 1 and remember it. Idk about hellfire expansion but like the bigger inventory.

[@1InVader1]

I think it is worth mentioning that D3 is a very different game now than it was at launch. At launch a lot of the enemies had a lot more flair and personality. Remember Inferno difficulty? Remember Lacunies in Act 2 Inferno? Remember Skull Cleavers? Yeah, you used to be scared of these things! With the RoS expansion they streamlined the whole experience way too much. Every enemy became the same but reskinned enemy, dealing the same amount of damage mostly the same way, but with a different color splash. Every map is the same map but reskinned, because there's no landmarks anywhere in adventure mode. They ironed out ALL the little quirks the game had, which made playing the game more convenient, but ultimately made it boring outside of GR pushing. All this because WoW players and stupid journalists were crying about "endgame". D2 didn't really have endgame either, especially vanilla. You killed Diablo on Hell and that was the "endgame". It ended. You're done. Unless you feel like farming more items.

[@CatchingVibes-et9zv]

Been watching some of your older stuff lately as I have been tyring to work up the courage to start my own KZbin. D3 was a good social game but as soon as my friend stopped playing, so did I. D2 Is like a warm blanket of bees, there is always an element of danger but it's still comfy. Also itemization should have been a category. The feeling of being able to equip nearly any item that drops just to "fuck around and find out" makes failure always an option. Just like life.

[@seer6251]

I think you make good points, especially that I should've discussed itemization. Actually blows my mind I didn't lol, absolutely would've illustrated a large design difference between both games. For these older videos, I constantly see places where I would've done things a little better, lol. But if it means anything for your channel aspirations, I think you have all the tools you need to begin, you just have to have an idea you want to pursue and run with it. You'll probably be alone with your videos/thoughts for some time, unless you're very lucky, but if you can cultivate any kind of audience, you can climb as far as you want. For awhile I had next to no viewers with a bunch of scripts for videos that I wasn't making, and now it's easy to look back and see that it was totally worth it to keep going. So, don't feel too worried about starting, when you're ready, just go for it!

[@CatchingVibes-et9zv]

@@seer6251 Ya, always easy to look back and find improvements to be made. I guess that's the benefit of living a creative life. You are right, just matters that I start. I have ideas, mostly car/automotive related. Getting my workshop up to snuff then we will see what pops out of the big dumb brain.

Seer, are you going to start a Patreon anytime soon? I’m legit down to support you! You and Matt McMuscles are my two favorite KZbinrs right now.

[@seer6251]

Thank you for that! I truly appreciate the support, and especially just the viewership. I have thought about the Patreon thing for a little while, and I plan to put that into practice sometime soon! I'll probably post links when they're relevant and available!

[@PeacefulKnight]

@@seer6251 Awesome!

[@johnrake4]

You’re videos are amazing and the writing is superb. If you stop producing content I’m going to slap you.

[@seer6251]

Haha, don't worry I have all kinds of nonsense in the pipeline. Thank you for watching and for the kind words! 💪

[@BFGUITAR]

That guy at 0:20 looks like Steve Paikin from TVO's The Agenda. Is that him?!

[@williamalongi5097]

For a moment, I saw this video, and moved past it cuz it didn't seem that interesting. Then I checked my subscriber feed, and saw that it was a Seer video. Clicked on it, immediately. No regrets. Love you dude.

[@seer6251]

Haha, thank you for your continued support! I knew the subject wouldn't buzz everyone, but I needed a slight reprieve from d2 exclusively.

[@stupidgoop]

You haven't really experienced a good pants shitting until you give a listen to the Caves and Hell tracks from d1. Great content, m8.

[@darke9218]

I replayed d1 recently it still gives insane vibes the cavern layer theme made me tense and then I proceeded to get hardstuck for awhile due to the mobs I'd gotten.

[@darkranger116]

D3 literally disallowed Demon Hunters from fully using and integrating melee weapons into any build. -50 points.

[@dimag4499]

Jesus this is so spot-on. THANK YOU.

[@smenkinsa]

I was doooone with d1 for years but like 5 months ago I found out there are some sick mods for it

[@pouncelygrin6699]

honestly the plot of Big Pineapple(D3) could've revolve around how the world-stone being destroyed affected the world, new monsters are created through the corrupted energy that burst from it's "destruction" while monsters that exist prior become something even more terrifying, mutating into more grotesque forms becoming intelligent and enacting terror, hate and destruction on all of creation thus making it so that the Prime Evils are able to manipulate the tides against good and humans even though they are back in hell edit: to go even further beyond, with the destruction of the world-stone not only did it release corrupted energy but also released all kinds of powers because of Tyraels magic mixing with it which then humans can use to fight back thus more classes are born

[@SvenS2]

Amen. Fingers crossed for D4

[@MalleusSemperVictor]

Is he going to say Hellfire is the worst Diablo product? Is that you, Mr. Brevik?

[@Hellschwarz]

Everyone knows Hellfire is the best Diablo product but it was limited by narrow minded restrictions. Complete Nut is cannon and you can't convince me otherwise.

[@Bilbobaggins82242]

Yes! More rants! 😁 Hope you onto clearing hell 👍

[@Bilbobaggins82242]

If not my sumonmancer has act 1 hell on farm if you need a hand 👍, also can't agree with the PoE screen clearing zerg spam vomit 🤢

[@moonboy5851]

Where have you been all my life? MOAR

[@Mdxfiend]

love these videos. make more

[@paulpaul46]

Love you man. Keep it up

[@cristhianmlr]

Yeah, Big Pineapple is quite the different beast from D and DII, but I still like it, yet it is true, it's practically WoW ARPG with Total War Blood DLC always turn on, which is why I only play it for season rewards and achievements, of which I would've liked to know your opinion on them because they can be fun but they are certainly extend a videogame longevity artificially. Sometimes they are easy and sometimes you just get focused the entire bloody game as Medic in TF2 and can't get your achievement after all this years as completionist. Maybe I just gave you an idea for a future video.

[@seer6251]

Haha, achievements are a really cool topic tbh. There's got to be something cool to discuss there. I will steal this idea 💪

[@Saruman1000]

"You can only walk like you've recently shat your pants, which is fair given the circumstances." Lmaooo

[@pouncelygrin6699]

this video is like a refresher for my brain made me think of things that could have happen and what could've been, sucks we never truly got a real sequel to the game

[@durzoflint]

Seer you are funny af, may the algorithm bless you

[@seer6251]

🙏 Thank you very much!
