Diablo IV - Act I - Kyovashad City OST

[@Nick-ww2hq]

It's this really soaring baroque classical stuff, mournful and melancholic, reaching for an elegance and beauty long since shattered, scarred, disfigured. Sadness, emptiness, the only thing left is the struggle for survival in a winter without end. Angels weeping, devils crawling from the burning pit towards bloody salvation. Humanity in the middle, at once derided and devoured by beings infinitely more powerful and yet never able to understand the willingness of Sanctuary's inhabitants to just keep persisting. Evocative stuff. A timeless addition to the music of Diablo, in my view.

[@SuzukiAccompaniment]

This is neither baroque nor classical music. More like romantic or neo-romantic. But either way it's amazing.

[@sandroxino]

Sure

[@Ceburekas]

I love the detail you put in this comment, have a great week Nick, i wish June will come faster to you and i hope you had a blast during server slam :)

Are you an author ✍️ I’ll read your book

[@tynkp4322]

23 yeara ago i was 11 and for the first time i installed the 3 disks of Diablo 2 and entered. Rogue camp was something i have never seen before and the music was so dark and melanholic. I started with the quests abd reached the thirth one with Cain. The moment i entered Tristram...i stopped playing for hours...the music and the atmosphere overwhelmed me ... I never felt that again in any other diablo game untill...i entered Kyovashad city...i stopped playing for hours....i was in tears. Instantly went back 23 years ago and felt the same ....

[@Lethmyr_]

This awesome song sounds so.. dark and sad.. This place doesn't feel like a home of shelter in the game. More like it's doomed and lost. I felt like there will be more to the church of light. The way they treat people. Their strict belief. The way how Inarius discarded you.. Wouldn't be surprised if there were a few plot twists lateron.

[@juanfernandorojas3194]

Lilith is much worse, sick and disgusting what she's doing to the townsfolk, the player is like in the middle of this conflict and the happy ending would be for humanity to finally live without hell and heaven influence, just alone and carving their own path. But I'm team Inarius and I hope he or the player can freaking destroy Lilith once and for all.

[@TehAlekzi]

@@juanfernandorojas3194 I bet that in this game Blizzard will pull their classic plot twist like they always do in their games. There was so many hints about how Inarius just chases his own glory and had even made a prophecy that wasn't about him part of the Church of Light's agenda and inserted himself into the prophecy.

[@TheAdorelis]

We need to remember something about the angels and demons of Diablo universe. They are prisoners of their own nature. The angels to order and demons to chaos. Malthael and Itherael knew this, they can't choose and they shouldn't, because in the end they will unconsciously pursue their natures and try to enforce them. Lilith tries to care for her children, humanity, but tragicly her demonic nature influences them in the worst possible way, "pursue your own desires" or as she said, "embrace your sins". Also, her "caring" is actually selfish, because she wants to use them in attemps to end the eternal conflict, to win. Inarius is a more severe case. At the beginning he choose to weaken humanity to prevent the discovery of sanctuary, but he also did it because his nature commanded him to preserve "order", because humanity is chaotic. Now, he is more desperate to reach this state of "order" because of his traumas, forcing him to use humanity as a means to return to the past, to the heavens. He just wants to forget and return to his glory days. The lore of Diablo is beautifly deep when you analize it in more detail, I love it.

@@whatwhat1099 I guess so. Basically it doesn't sound like anything you'd hear in Western or central Europe. It's very Slavic, also the vibes of the game are slavic, the Church in the game really reminds me of the Russian Orthodox church.

Very similar to Arcarnum back in the days. I like the general style of the game. Its like maturity ruled once more over the Diablo 3 and WoW people. I especially like the design of the outfits. I mostly like them all while i hated almost every single piece of equipment in Diablo 3. There seems to be a sense that better doesn't mean the armour needs to look bulkier and bigger.

The music is great, I get it. Much money spent on musicians. But do I REALLY need to feel depressed as ALL FUCK when I'm sorting out my loot in front of the blacksmith EVERY TIME? Like good god, the quiet harp bits like at 9:44 make me imagine some terminally ill man who lives alone with no friends, wasting away playing an online game. He's just drifting and fading, living in an eternal **now** that is eternally coming to an end any day now. I came up with a whole ass mental theater from listening to this depressing ass song over and over while fisting my inventory in front of the damn blacksmith.
