Diablo 1 and 2 Cinematic Montage

What Diablo 3 lacked was setting fear into the player.

[@merathy]

In diablo 3 all the prime evils chat with you constantly. They annoy you and you charge at them to get it over with. Thats it. Diablo 1 is a lot darker, with better sounds and more atmosphere. And Diablo simply runs at you to kill, and your first reaction is to run away.

[@KarlOlofsson]

+merathy just finished on normal and I just melted through everything like butter with my Monk. They made Diablo 3 "casual friendly" where you pretty much never need to heal yourself. A big part of the fear in the other two for me was having to return to a hellhole to retrieve your shit ;)

[@Poo597]

+merathy Wow, you're exactly right. I never, not once, felt even a tad bit uneasy in Diablo 3. I think a large part of it has to do with the fact it's so social you never truly feel a sense of isolation. Also the game itself is so incredibly easy, I never went into a fight with the notion I might lose.

[@Laurian21]

+Poo597 guess you didn't play old inferno before the nerf

[@merathy]

Chai DK I know exactly what you mean. You still want to have to story. You still want to know here it goes. Why do you believe was diablo 2 so much more "successful" thand iablo 1?

[@AltonJB1984]

Diablo 1 and 2 were so much creepier than Diablo 3

[@fryedegg]

I agree with this 100%. I think as the VFX jumped from d2-d3 they focused more on "Lets make this EPIC" vs "This looks like garbage so lets make it creepy"

[@mdscene3585]

Playing D2 and not being able to see anything except darkness after a few yards around your character was the most terrifying thing. You never really knew when you were walking head first into a huge group of champion mobs, or worse, a huge mob of fetishes in act 3. It was also the best part of the whole games feel.

[@AltonJB1984]

Mark Johnson Yup, and D1 having that too made it so freaky

[@danielhenderson762]

Diablo 1 narrator voice is so epic and scary. Idk if it's too retro for today's games. Maybe I'm getting old

[@nicoleelardo7436]

It's not only creepier but scary.🔥🔥🔥👹👿😈🔥🔥🔥

[@oedipamaas2067]

[@MrSTROM26]

if someone who never played d2 before see this video, they will be blown away considering how old diablo 2 is, imagine how we felt watching this for first time and dealing with it like 15-16 years ago :D

[@okamiamadeus5163]

Exactly, the graphics was overwhelming and i couldn't believe how advanced and detailed it was. Really scary and strange times.

[@Fransens]

I still remember seeing that LoD intro cutscene for the first time and thinking "Damn, look at that dude's fur! Graphics have gotten so realistic!".

[@Groovy_Bruce]

“He moved with demonic speed.” Walks slowly.

[@stoobydoobydoo]

Im just going to politely point out that compared to how fast he had been moving before this he might as well have been sprinting. The point was not that he was moving fast but that suddenly he had grown much stronger and was no longer barely able to walk. Sad that I have to point this out but you are probably a little slow so it's all good.

[@aafads1234w4]

good old times...

[@tunasub7436]

Is it me or do game cinematics made in the late 90s have this dark gloom to it? Like what engine did they use? I noticed starcraft and fallout cinematics also have this kind of dark gloom in it.

[@HybOj]

They worked with the actual devil in those times, for ex diablo 1 was really created under the patronage of the evil lord, its real

[@attorneyinvestor3941]

@@HybOj yes and because of that people can now say Diablo. What is your favorite game? Diablo! Everybody calls Diablo now.

[@danielhenderson762]

I think it's a choice. Spongy anime characters with bright colors is the meta now. You can see that with the new marvel movies compared to the old ones. Or wow today, compared to wc3 cinematics

[@Groovy_Bruce]

By having darker lighting it helps to cover up the technical deficiencies of the time.

[@ryszardkilinski1238]

Imagine walking out of the dungeon of the cathedral in D1 with a soulstone sticking out of your forehead and nobody COMMENTS on it ! Hi, Deckard, I've done it! Congrats, wanna beer?! This plotline between D1 and D2 must be completed with some movie.

Good times. And what a cool way to tell the story.... Not even remotely cheesy like D3.

[@TheSinquisitor]

If only Blizzard hadn't lost a majority of the developers that created the first 2 - D3 might've been so different. Love the eerie horror and occultism that the originals brought, the new one was too overly heroic and glorified for me.

Second part is a work of art. First part can be upgraded. When I was a kid I was always waited for a fightings and more armored heroes stuff (everything is missing). For Diablo 2 was created a lot of 3D models and basically all the game is in 3D, but somehow the story line tells about Diablo, not about heroes, some mystery

Diablo 1 got this religious, demonic hellish horror tone. Diablo 2 got this epic poem, religious, dark tone. Diablo 3 got this heavenly, religious and witchcraft tone (and their developpers lost their balls) Honestly, even if the third lack any feeling of the first two. i (shamely) still like it. Probably because I bought it on the PS4 instead of... ERROR 37 This comment will finish now.

Leoric's Son, Aidan. He felt that the only way to prevent Diablo from continuing on his path of destruction was for him to contain him within his own body. He thought he would be strong enough, but alas, he was not.
