Diablo IV Vessel of Hatred Official Cinematic Trailer | Xbox Games Showcase 2024

[@reapercult7971]

nah that arm split kinda gave me chills

[@AyZeD]

Blizzard should just make CGI movies of the diablo series rather than games.

[@piotrkarp9562]

In this style? Absolutly! D3 had manga vibe for me and it just doesn't fit franchise for me (still looked top notch but just doesn't fit at all).

[@Saint-13]

*in addition to the games*

[@maurenovick]

I was hoping the Warcraft movie would have been successful enough so I could have finally got a Starcraft movie but I'll take Diablo instead. This looked great and gross and I am actually excited to place the dlc.

[@ryanlee8130]

they be so successful with films

[@FunTimeWithSouls]

It would cost them sooooooo much money to make though.

[@magnawiz]

The cost of holding the soulstone is an arm and a leg as it symbolizes the cost of playing Blizzard games nowadays.

People say that, but just because their cut scenes are cool does NOT mean they could pull off a movie. They cant even write compelling video game stories. You think they can magically put together a great hour plus? It's easy to make trailers and stuff like this. Movies are a much much different beast. For example... Marvel/Disney over the past 10 years.

why everybody grab a soulstone with the most powerful demon in it and then run off alone? it ain't workin

[@BenNuli]

Yeah but you never know maybe NEXT time it will work out ok! :P

[@brianball6597]

I was thinking the same thing! Don't they have like 4 separate stories in the last 100 years of their history of heroes grabbing soulstones, only to get corrupted?

[@danielliew7960]

I guess anyone who carry any of the demon soulstone for too long, it will consume/possess them sooner or later.

[@djun0gaming639]

It also represents the inner turmoils in human nature. How hatred can grow and destroy you and the others around. It has other meanings as well. It's actually so deep and on my levels the symbolism is on another level

[@dingodyno9016]

Pretty much how it goes, look at everyone who tried to contain a prime evil in a soul stone

[@erickchristensen746]

That's the idea, the demon inside that stone is not some random elite or something. It is the literal lord of Hatred itself after all. The Demon Lords are all consuming and all corrupting.

[@jonascastejon5888]

That idea goes as far back as the first Diablo, where our hero becomes the wanderer in D2.

[@lunahix4815]

I saw another trailer for this, and someone commented on that video; that her bones were being stripped away. So she'll be nothing more than flesh and muscle to be his new heart, and now i can't get that out of my head. 😥

Neyrelle created a new soul stone through a ritual to trap mephisto so she could harness his power and get revenge against lilith for corrupting her mother she basically becomes overly obsessed with trying to control mephisto which in turn starts to consume her

[@creame.mp4]

This is.. stunning. Great, great interpretation of life struggles. I can sense some inspiration in LoTR, but I must admire it deeply. Best animation Ive ever seen, almost realistic and going beyond borders, thats why Diablo 1 and 2 rocked. I only wish Matt Uelmen is on the soundtrack, because he was so authentic. Crystal authentic. I wish some mainstream game or movie can explore the borders of gore, shock, cause there is huge life in it. Not because I want to see it, but because it is something "meta" in it. Noone did this in unchained capitalism age. Go beyond borders.

[@nercksrule]

If Blizzard was smart, they'd have the "adventurers" conduct a summoning ritual to resurrect Lilith in order to work with her to take out Mephisto. But it's Blizzard we're talking about, so it's just gonna be a repeat of the end of Act III and all of Act IV from Diablo 3. We'll spend the entire DLC following the wake of destruction Mephisto leaves on Sanctuary, and catch up to Neyrelle just in time to see her get possessed by Mephisto. One lame boss fight later... the story ends and we're back to square 1.
