Honestly, what I'd like to see is Imperius not fall, but slip a bit then come back from it. We already got this song and dance in Reaper of Souls and I feel like someone coming back from their darkest hour would be refreshing. Maybe give Imperius an arc where he finally grapples with his pride and attempts to look at the situation through the eyes of others. One of the hardest things for people to do is admit when they're wrong - they double down and down and down even when they actually see the merit of the other side. Admitting wrongdoing and opening yourself to the other side is possibly the most mature thing someone can do and would certainly take some doing for Imperius but I feel could be an excellent payoff if done well. Tyrael and Imperius used to be close friends and I think that relationship could also play into the Aspect of Valor's redemption.

[@Threesnap]

I know this is a old comment. But I think this is exactly what will happen. At the end of diablo 3 we see Tyreal become the angel of wisdom so we know they can change roles. I think if Imperius overcomes his hate borderline wrath... The role for the angel of justice is available.......

[@williamtriplett]

I think they r going to try that with anarius

[@ChBrahm]

I like how angels have this Darkness within them. Wisdom turned Death. Valor turned Wrath. And if you watch closely Tyrael is no exception to this. As the Archangel of Justice he also has a flaw. He is Arrongant. Though he became human before this nature of his could fully develop. See how he makes decisions based of off his own judgement without further consideration. As "Justice itself" as he defines himself he considers all of his decisions to be the right ones. Yes he did help save the world like that but that doesn´t take away the fact that he is an arrogant son of a... Anu? Meybe on another reality he became the aspect of Arrogance only to be later defeated by the Nephalem.

[@SpinedLizardLagoon]

Angels can become as corrupt as the demons they face, likely as a result of them being descendants of the original primeval being. The Angels came from the part that wished perfection, Anu, and the demons came from the evil it expelled from itself, the Dragon Tathamet. Because of this link, dark and light can become interchangeable between them.

[@Blockheadfun]

All things are corruptible Maltheal became Death to pacify all life. As all things can be redeemed if they so choose remember Lilith. Despite being a demon she loved her children, and would protect them at all costs. The Priests of Rathma aka Necromancers are the only ones who are truly right to maintain a balance between “good and evil” to stay true to their nature, and remain stalwart against corruption of “good or evil”.

[@Blockheadfun]

Granted Lilith once again succumbed to her demonic nature she still ruthlessly tried to defend the Nephilim when Inaruis’s followers suggested that they be destroyed.

[@ladyren1575]

With that. God and you can agree on this.

[@matteodelluomo3133]

In fact, in Heroes of the Storm one of Tyrael's skins is his "demonic version" and in the description he's said to be the Aspect of Pride

[@SanguiniustheGreatAngel]

Becoming the Aspect of Wrath only makes him more badass

His wings are unique as well.

[@ClassicClown]

YES OF COURSE IT IS

[@ClassicClown]

@@kiroslepoto Thank you both

[@FrostyWoW]

I wonder if Thor and Imperius used the same dying star to forge their weapons.

[@StarboyXL9]

Probably. They probs bonded over their mutual love for star-forged weaponry.

[@-angelslayer-3424]

I wonder what crossover universe you all are thinking about.

[@phogelbice]

The concept of starts wasnt invented at the time of norse gods fool.

[@Guardian582]

Thor did not make Mjolinir, Odin did

[@Sean-ex9ip]

It's funny you mention them both because I was thinking about how tyrael being able to pick up imperius's staff when they fought was similar to captain america being able to pick up thor's hammer as captain america is for justice and worthy of a weapon that isn't his just like tyrael was worthy and how he is for justice.

[@cidkagenoh9181]

What i always found dumb in the diablo lore is that when the angels voted to see if they should intervene with Mankind or not, they made a pact to prevent any interference with mankind proposed by tyreal, but just after that tyrael went behind the council back and not only did he intervened he even created a whole cult to "protect" mankind, and after he destroyed the worldstone and was reborn in the high heavens he called imperius a coward for keeping his promise (one that he didn't want, because he wanted to destroy mankind to begin with) and people call imperius the asshat, when tyrael is the real hypocrite son of a b*tch.

[@AdeptKing]

He also technically handed the black soulstone right to Malthael by taking it out of heaven. Granted he wasn't trying to do that and he did try to fix it.

[@Kenny-sl6hb]

The treaty was à ruse so that thé démons could spread their influence among humans. Once tyrael saw that why, would he follow the treaty ? If the demons manage to bring the nephalems to their side heaven would be destroyer.

[@Lightoffivestars]

Yes, everything was an inside job done by Tyrael with Diablo, where he and Diablo can take total control of heaven and hell. Like how he took down Imprius and act as the leader in heaven,in compare to Diablo become Prime Evil and freed by Tyrael

[@arelichavarelichav3012]

Hello brother tell me which country r u from?

[@Kenny-sl6hb]

@@Lightoffivestars you didn't understand anything I said and twisted everything. Tyrael geniuly wanted the treaty to take effect. But the demons signed the treaty so that the angel wouldn't affect the humans to their causes and they would be to brainwash the humans. Imperius though it was great because he didn't like humans. But Tyrael saw the danger and couldn't watch any longer. There is no reason to respect the treaty if demons. Do not respect it.

[@bag-manbaron2547]

What really gets me is that Imperius clearly wanted Tyriel to come back to his kin and work along side them, but he already was on the warpath and had to stand firm to what he said. remember, they were basically the best of friends always seen fighting alongside eachother.

[@custodialfatherintexas9362]

I actually don't see a downfall, it's more a redemption through growing up. I believe that Imperious is learning to accept the nephalem toward the end. His pride won't let him admit it, but he realizes he needs the nephalem to kill Malthael.

[@PH03NIX96]

CustodialFather in Texas That's how I saw it.

[@marcuskurze9759]

He just hadnt the balls to do whats necessary thats why he had to leave it to the Nephalem.Lets face it:Imperius has reached his Limits he was supposed to be the greatest warrior of Creation but the Nephalem stand outside that ranking and deep down within he feels like he is of no use anymore after getting his ass kicked by Diablo and later not been able to stop Malthael.

[@GMorgan84]

I don't believe that was the case. He could have defeated Malthael but he didn't want to. He left it to the Nephalem because he didn't want to kill one he saw as a brother. However maybe seeing what Malthael became will change Imperius.

[@marcuskurze9759]

GMorgan84:He could NOT have defeated him.Malthael as the Aspect of Death was at the same Level at least like Diablo as the primal Evil.And btw.trying to stop him does not Always means killing him.

[@TheRogueminator]

[@masterexploder9668]

I would like to see a twist, because Imperius turning into villain is way too obvious.

[@kprk4102]

Let's hope, that Blizzard has an interesting Character developement for Imperius at plan. Something like, banishing or cursing him as a mortal to sanctuary, until he learns the true meaning of valor, by spending time among humans, in order to earn his wings back, would be a good example.

[@CookiePi]

I'm amazed a video like this has been uploaded at this point since D3's release. Glad, but amazed. Did Curse just have this video left behind in their backlog and finally decided to upload it? I know there are still people playing, but it's been rocky for D3 and lacking in additional content for a long time. I think a lot of people feel that D3 could have been so much more

[@yurihageshi8008]

I'm waiting for another xp Pac myself, but I hear that may not happen. I'm not talking about the necromancer add on either...

[@vidya2144]

well, one year later, i'm guessing they had some backchannel knowledge about D4 in development.

[@rond5379]

I had no idea how Diablo story has so many holes and contradictions in it.

[@matthewrichards4078]

well, they made a mistake already, he's the angel of valor, and based on his actions, it's Pride not Wrath that he almost embodies throughout lore, quests, and story.

[@staticbeepbeep]

Imperius is my favorite character, I really hope they won't fuck him over...

[@omek6]

Surprise, he's the new end game boss in D4! Nah, they wouldn't do that. But then I thought they'd never kill Cain with butterfly magic so... 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@staticbeepbeep]

Yeah well when it comes to writing characters blizzard kinda sucks balls at it. They start developing nice character and then when everyone loves him they don't know how to progress him anylonger so they just fucking kill them with some random shit... If you look at WoW lore Legion ending is one of most retarded things ever... They had over 15 years to write that lore and the way they ended it is just plain fucking retarded. Same with Garrosh one badass orc turned into sidekicking crap or at WoD Grom Hellscream that was most lame fucking Orc I have ever seen ingame. All that big talk and he did literally nothing for the whole expansion simply because they had no idea how to develop him. So yeah in short I wouldn't be surprised if Imperius got killed by the bowl of wet noodles.

[@marcuskurze9759]

Favorite Character?What do you like it when treated like crap?

[@Michael-ft5bm]

@@omek6 Cain deserved his rest way before D3. Dude lived through diablo twice, and instead of letting his life end peacefully, they shove his dusty ass into 3 as nothing more than a weak cameo, instead of introducing a new scholarly character. Something that leah should have been but NOPE CANT HAVE THAT CAN WE BLIZZARD! Gotta have some damn self important voice line dumpster because we need tension or some shit.

[@NeoDeXeno]

@@Michael-ft5bm I agree Leah got royally screwed, and I actually liked her as a character. Honestly the first time I played Diablo 3 I thought Leah was the Nephalem since she mentioned having an unexplained surge in power. Also during conversation with Alaric (I think that's his name) my character doesn't speak or acknowledge the possibility of being a Nephalem so that didn't help either.

@@marcuskurze9759 Why they would lose?

[@badcookie123456789]

It's also his fault that diablo is even here he killed him knowing full well he would come back

[@mateochouinard-gagnon2481]

@@jemperdiller Because during the Eternal Conflict, there were several times where the demon army made it to the Diamond Gate (High Heaven's entrance). Most of the time, the demon army would just crush the angels by their sheer number, until one of the Prime Evils decide to betrays his brethren for the sake of assuring victory for himself, which makes the unity from the demon army crumble, giving time to angels to reorganize their forces, and to strike strategically to their weak spot. Consequently, the only thing that saves the angels from losing the Eternal Conflict (before the reappearance of the Nephalems) is the many internal conflicts within the Burning Hell's forces, mostly provoked by Diablo's ambition to be #1, or Mephisto's plotting for the lul.

[@jemperdiller]

@@mateochouinard-gagnon2481 Thanks for comment. But that means that Demons can win only if they are united by black soulstone, forged by humans, ergo Imperius was right. There was a balance now ruined by humanity and OP nephalems.

[@DSnalomega]

No matter whatever he is he is the coolest archangel ever he has the look of leadership in form itself

[@Lynch2507]

.....So where's the downfall?

[@DannyTheBased]

He was once considered the strongest fighter created, but now he can only watch as the nephalem does what he could not do; whether it’s defeating diablo or malthael. Not a downfall as much as it is the nephalem rising above.

[@olstar18]

Who said he's finished falling.

[@aclock2]

At his peak he could take on all 3 prime evils by himself, I think he is losing power as wrath slowly consume his soul and there is nothing he could do about it, which makes him even angrier.

[@Thanos_aka_Imperius]

there is no downfall,he could have joined Malthael(during RoS) otherwise

[@crimansizers5840]

I had no idea Imperius was this powerful. When did he do this?

[@alphareccon1059]

I don't know much about it, but I love Diablo's Lore

[@YoungFree213]

Alpha Reccon I recommend reading some of the books, deffently sin wars 1 and 2 with kingdom of shadow and the legacy of blood. If not, the book of Cain gives a good over view of everything along with the book of tyrael for extended of the d3 lore

[@Nethrezar]

How come in this universe angels can be corrupted to evil, but you never see any demons purified to good?

[@Albertrossus]

its because most of the time good and light is tied to order and discipline, while evil is tied to chaos. Naturally all things seek chaos and im not sure if there even is a case of chaos seeking order irl (not sure if the cooling of the universe counts as chaos seeking order). Its basically entropy.

Save him and than what?We already safed his feathered ass once and what did we got in return?Nothing.He just stood there while Maltael almost destroyed all humanity.After saving the heavens from becoming Penthouse hell it would have been nice to see some revange but no.

[@marcuskurze9759]

Marnige:In comparison to the Neohalem he IS weak.And Deep down within he knows that.The fight against Diablo an Steroids has shown this clearley.He is just not able to see the truth like Tyrael did,Humanity is the only hope for the heavens to survive and it will not help that Imperius hasnt done a Thing to Prevent Malthael from killing countless of humans.But anyway I wouldnt demand him to bow befoere me just the recognision that the Nephalem saved him and heavens as well.

[@AdeptKing]

@Marnige I would argue they were worse since they caused the issues in those books to begin with because they were bad parents. On Imperious, well I think the issue is he sees in black and white. He only sees the demon influence in humanity. He doesn't see that they can be good as well. Though even Tyrael said in the end that he was worried about what the hero would do since he/she proved themselves but they are a human so he could screw them over just as easily.

[@celestialspartan1176]

What if in Diablo IV, Imperious becomes the Angel Of Wrath? I mean, in the game, the developers did state that the Diamond Gates of Heaven will be closed. But, why? My theory is that, since Imperious loathes humanity, he will order the gates to be closed. When he finds out that Lilith is summoned, that’ll push him over the edge, and the angel of valor will truly become the angel of wrath. His fall will be complete. But, that’s just my theory.

[@chefboiardeeznutz9881]

[@DutchDread]

@@ritzroldennalpajora4742 Well it makes sense, we associate whiteness with purity, goodness, and generally all things divine. Not for any racial reason, but for simple evolutionary reasons, this makes it logical that whites seem inherently more angelic to us. I don't however think that that's purely the reason for your disappointment, I think this is a case where reality can never live up to imagination. His face being hidden in darkness allows us to imagine anything we want, and just like when a movie doesn't show a monster, our imagination is always better than reality. On top of that comes the fact that they didn't pick a particularly angelic looking black dude, who looks like an average, scruffy, 40 year old dude. Had they given him a perfectly clean, perfect skinned black dude with flowing black hair I think you would have been less disappointed. There are simply aspects that we associate with perfection, had Tyreal been an overweight slob with a receding hairline, a weak jaw, with half his teeth missing, with boils on his oversized nose, we'd have been disappointed. Even so, I understand why they chose this look, it's to make his "mortality" more evident, he's truly "one of us". He's not some ubermensch, he's just some random dude, no prettier, or cleaner than any other. I think his mundane look was chosen to reflect that. Still disappointing though.

[@Loco89581]

Ritz Roldenn Alpajora eat ur heart out Asian. The “game character” is black. Lol

[@the.nerd.knight2078]

i think the lack of combat drove imperious mad angles and demons aren't like humans they are defined by their roles and trying to deny those roles is like torture to them so when imperious made that deal to end the angle demon war it was literally torture every day he wasn't dispensing holy wrath

[@GrimgoreIronhide]

I really don't like how so many of the Archangels end up going bad, while the prime evils are not only completely pure in their evil but keep coming back from supposed finnal death over and over. Is heaven supposed to be a match for hell or not? Make up your mind blizzard.

[@baitposter]

It's as Tyrael says, humanity is their best hope. _...And, at the End of Days, Wisdom shall be lost_ _as Justice falls upon the world of men._ _Valor shall turn to Wrath -_ _and all Hope will be swallowed by Despair._ _Death, at last, shall spread its wings over all -_ _as Fate lies shattered forever._

DreadPages But at the same time they dont die as easily.

[@Daniel-rd6st]

@ dreadpages: Not true. In the games for example it was mentioned, that the angels expected Izual to be reborn at the arch, but it never happened, probably due to his corruption. Death for angles usually is not permanent. Inarius, after he was captured by the deamons, also expected to be killed and to "respawn". Its the same as with the deamons really. Tyrael also reformed himself after the destruction of the worldstone.

I hope so I would enjoy it to kick his ass down into oblivion once and for all and take revenge for all he has done.

The world stone is the reality stone.

While true, the soul stone would be more fitting.

Thx for great videos! I really enjoy it. I saw there cuts from something like anime? Is there a diablo anime? Can you please answear?

Diablo 4’s final boss will be imperious taken over by the Prime Evil Diablo. Meaning Diablo takes the ultimate body for his own. He’ll look like an armored Prime Evil Diablo.

[@MyNameIsTKJoker]

Pretty sure if Blizzard was to make a Diablo 3 second expansion (unlikely) or Diablo 4 (highly unlikely), Imperius would likely be the final boss.

[@BANANAT0R314]

Diabolo 4 lol

[@cainabel6356]

That does not sound like Imperius becoming the Aspect of Wrat. He is just an angry angel, nothing more.

[@OneHellofaDragon]

Your description of the Sin war is inaccurate

[@aemiliadelroba4022]

Wow 🤩 I remember it differently!

[@Roadcrashroller]

Can we say that imperius like a big bad baby of angel like he do whatever to eliminate the demon while other member of the council are stoping him from doing that tyrany decision

[@ClassicClown]

You can say that mortal but Solaris will end your blasphemy

[@syntheticdawn4992]

What if Diablo is the good guy? and the soulstone holds Sanctuary together but only if its with diablo . The story is told from Horadrim perspective the playable characters are murderous villains , remember the talk of the dark riders (might be disguised horadrim provoking a fight) The Hero Archbishop Lazarus tries to broker a peace-deal only to be named a terrorist and attacked by the self righteous King Leoric and Albrecht (that kills diablo and sees the truth of the world in the soulstone thus shoving it up his head) I would be more excited to play against the evil Horadrim guys instead i mean look at blizzard team they are evil Online only Drm diablo 3 and a mobile microtransaction always online game . Play as an agent of Diablo Lord Of Terror a terror that is more like a balance virtue THE GUY IS NOT TRULY evil he teaches people about the dark exile The Horadrim are a dangerous sect who started an unnessesary war that led of the destruction of Tristram .

[@syntheticdawn4992]

Know this and imagine starting a new game on level 16 with diablo being the equivalent of Kain the elder but telling you all sorts of truth along you there will be Gharbad , Maiden Of Anguish , Lazarus , The Undead King Leoric But your characters to choose from Dark Knight Succubus and Lich the goal would be to get up to tristram and Destroy the 3 Horadrim hired bounty hunters along the way there will be books with horadrim propaganda all kinds of heroes attacking and all new quests , this can be done with freeablo. Put the Arcanes Valor quest in it but the Hero Of Light will not attack you in diablo 1 the hero of light attacks thats how i knew i played as the bad guy

[@supermaneternal]

He will be the main villian in D4 'd4

[@robertschaffer596]

I love the lore they created for the Diablo Universe. But I always wondered how can be Imperius not only an archangel, but also the leader of the high heavens. Because the archangels are born from the spine of Anu and are pure light and all that is good. But Imperius is full with hatred and pride, everything which is the best example of an evil being.

[@boogienightsmarkwahlberg6011]

Robert Schäffer exactly.

[@melbournemeliodas215]

What's the difference between 'aspects of' and the 'archangel of?'

[@loregoldblack93]

Wasnt him the aspect of valor?

Yes I am

[@ClassicClown]

Yes

[@thehelmethead4883]

Ever since I met Imperius I wanted to beat him down. For an aspect of valor he is very pig-headed which is his major downfall. I watched a video of making of reaper of souls, and initially the devs were going to have Imperius be the big bad guy with Malthael be a side bad guy pulling strings from the background. The devs scrapped the idea because "it didn't feel right" to them, I would of liked it if they had switched roles for them and made Imperius the second to last boss or something, that would have been a more satisfying end to the game to me.

[@PH03NIX96]

32roadsters 1 Shouldnt have fucked with the black soulstone arc period. Would have been much better to forget it til Diablo 4 and focus on killing Adria saving Leah for the xpac. Would have been much better.

could Imperius be the next act 5 boss?

[@ragael1024]

all i want to know is when will diablo 4 come up???

[@doobledevil]

you give him too much credit for the so called valor.If you have played the game you should remember that when the nephalim tried to help him he didn't exactly refuse but neither said aide me as well.Another thing, in the opening were we see the animation between angels and demons more specifically when the video talks about the (you call that bravery to kill an enemy while his is distracted by others.From experience this is what you call a sneak attack.And lastly you may say he had a tragic downfall by from my point of view he resembles a small child who seeks glory for the sole purpose of having the others praise him while he sits on his throne.

[@Ahmetfusta]

I would personally call him the aspect of Pride

[@ClassicClown]

It is not a sneak attack but a tactic not all wars are won with brute force but what would a Mortal like you know

[@doobledevil]

@@ClassicClown aren't you also a mortal? since you don't deny half of the things i said then that means you also approve of the things i said, by the way a tactic were you sacrifice your own troops for your own glory can instead be intercepted as cowardice and it can be viewed as an act of impudence especially when the ultimate objective hasn't been completed.there sacrifices has gone to waste thanks to their leader.
