Blizzard putting up "Diablo Reign of Terror" labeled Blizzcon merchandise on their website
- Thread starter Nirolak
- Start date
Malthael breaks the Black Soulstone to empower himself, potentially releasing all the Evils held within, Diablo included. They actually set up a lot of stuff to work with in the ending of ROS - Nephalem going against the angels maybe, Evils being released, Imperius being an ass to Nephalem and humanity in general. lots of conflict to explore.
I'm torn between loving Diablo and Diablo 2 and having a huge chunk of my interest in the series wash away with how lame 3 was. The next Diablo is obviously going to be some sort of GaaS thing so if they could only try to capture the style of the original more (and somehow manage to fix how dumb Diablo 3 was) I would probably be into this. As is, I'm watching from a distance.
Will probably watch that stupid TV show, though. And then get mad when its more D3 than D2 or Diablo.
EDIT: Also, any script for this should just get rid of the word Nephilim in its entirety.

"Reign of Terror" is what gamers will think about he MTX.
What's the chance of this coming out before Holidays 2019 I wonder.
I don't have high hopes for a new Diablo with Blizzard in its current state.
Diablo I and II are one of my all time favorite games.

They should hire Ghost to play BlizzCon and license Yero Zero for Diablo 4.
In fact, call it Diablo 4: Year Zero and let Ghost play the song during the reveal.
Also, they should put Cardinal Copia and Papa Emeritus in the game as NPCs.
You got Belial, Azmodius, Beelzebub, Satan and Lucifier in the game as bosses - straight out of the song.
It would be perfect.

Why did I follow them? I don't know... Why do things happen as they do in dreams. All I know is that when he beckoned, I had to follow him. from that moment we traveled together east, always in to the east.
100% in, but I'm praying it's more Diablo 1/2 and less Diablo 3. Cut the 'you're a magical super hero' nonsense and get back to the bleak and intriguing world where the player character exists to let you view the weird and wonderful stuff around you.

Nobody knows what happened to the Prime Evils after Malthael died.
I read long time ago speculation saying that is possible that the MC character is the host for the Prime Evils after the events of RoS. Similar to Diablo to Diablo II events.
I still bet that Reign of Terror is a Diablo I remake.
I could see it being the subtitle of the Netflix show, but as there's like a 99.9% chance of there being some Diablo game reveal, game title might be more likely.
"Reign of Terror" would definitely fit a sort of Diablo 1/2 HD remake or collection, and since the specific Diablo art they are using looks like that style of Diablo maybe that's what we are getting.

To be honest I seriously doubt they would let any official art of Diablo the character slip before the next game is revealed. So I'm gonna assume that art isn't from the next game.
And since the Netflix show basically just went into the writing phase I doubt they have a title. So yeah D1/D2 HD seems fairly likely to me.

Maybe we could get it added to the OP that the Netflix series has only just been green-lit?
It's not likely that we're getting that show anytime soon.
In that regard it is also highly unlikely that they're going to sell swag to promote said show.
It's a lot more likely that it's a D1 or D2 remake, or a new DLC pack for Diablo 3.

The Font on the shirts gives me an old-school vibe, I think this might be the remaster/remake of D1.
Boy did they fuck that up, I mean it was convoluted from the beginning but at least it made some sense and it was interestingly funny.
OP
OP
I mean, it's pretty much wide open at this point.
Malthael blew up the mega soulstone and let all seven demon lords out at the end of Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls.
I'm expecting a cross platform (ideally), persistent online game. A Diablo MMORPG is money in the bank for them and long overdue. Also a nice departure from WoW, while remaining true to the studio's vision.
What about him? He is mortal now, and leader of the new Horadrim.
He's apparently back to doing Angel stuff again, but still as a human:
That one was always... strange, and they kinda throw that thing with being part of the Angiris away in ROS.
Still bitter about Cain mostly.
I just want them to drop the general tone and style of Diablo 3. Made everything feel goofy like a Saturday morning cartoon.
Are Leah/femDiablo gone for good or what? I can't remember.
The quoted bit is referencing what takes place in the fallout after RoS.
OP
OP
The idea was that Diablo's appearance was based upon whoever's body he converted into being his own, but this one is probably just what he shows up like when he isn't converting anyone, since he doesn't need to anymore after being freed from the soulstones.
That's unfortunate. The angel design is one of the most iconic imagery of the series.
This is basically how I feel too. I'm also fine with a full Reboot.
Found your quote, it's from the end of the main campaign. What he does after ROS is basically what I wrote - coordinating the Nephalem and Horadrim on Sanctuary. No angel stuff anymore.

Well I know Malthael was the original angel of wisdom, so I thought Tyrael taking his place after Malthael gets got would make sense. But yeah it doesn't really matter either way, I'm sure he'll be up to some new shenanigans in the new game.
It doesn't even make sense how Tyrael became human. Humans were born from angels and demons, not the other way around. Tyrael was never human before as far as I know Diablo lore.
"No! I must kill the demons" Tyrael shouted
The Angels said "No, Tyrael. You are the demons"
And then Tyrael was a human.
He is mortal, not human. Big distinction I think. Although considering Blizzard themselves realised what a clusterfuck was the main story, they tried to get away from it as much as possible, and basically rewritten large parts of what made no sense.
Are you saying Diablo can't be a woman?Glad to see Diablo actually looks like Diablo in that art....
yikes
I loved feminine, overdesigned D3 Diablo. Probably one of the few things I liked from that game's story.Glad to see Diablo actually looks like Diablo in that art....
yikes
It's a shame Leah had to die for it though, I liked her as the new face of the series.
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.
Remember when Tyrael got hungry? LOL
I didn't mind her, but I didn't like that Diablo at all. I prefer Diablo looking beast-like and swole as fuck haha.
That Diablo looked better then the old hulking brute. The feminine design and all those spikes really made him stand out, sorta reminded me of Mephisto.Glad to see Diablo actually looks like Diablo in that art....
yikes
