really hope these become a monthly thing rather than a yearly series. xD love listening to Rhykker go through the lore with his sense of humor sprinkled in.
Did you mean Activision soon? You know, whatever date maximises sales/revenue/EBITDA bottom line & shareholder confidence in their ongoing ability to slam the customers over a barrel & keep them coming back & begging for more?
Lazarus "roll at least 21 to save yourself from demonic corruption." Leoric "but the die only has twen--" Lazarus "roll at least 21. Also your wife is plotting against you."
Glad I JUST discovered these vids, instead of when they first came out, I got to binge listen to them. Now I DO have to wait for the next one though. Looks like I will be staying awhile and listening.
I've reviewed the series from 1 and enjoyed this just as the first. Happy to be viewing the latest. This is an awesome channel and I greatly appreciate it. Thanks!!
@@Daniel-rd6st Yup. The Diablo universe teeters on the brink of Armageddon. The Grim Dawn universe took five steps back from that brink... to get a running start before leaping over.
@@The_Keeper Amen to that. When a cannibalistic deathcult who tries to summon its god to the world (Barrowholm) feels like a minor inconvenience in the "how fucked are we" ranking, then you know that things couldnt be much worse...
I just started playing Diablo starting with 3, so seeing who Leoric was and why my Witch Doctor is wearing his crown is a feeling like nothing else. And now I understand the pain of having to wait for the next part to come out. Have faith, brothers. Have faith.
I love these little sit down chats with uncle Rhyker first of the new horadrim. Hearing lore is always a good time to me. Also that will DC Save had me laugh out loud!
The announcement of D2R has spiked my interest in Diablo which I haven't played in years and was never interested in its lore. Found this series and enjoyed all the 12 episodes in the span of 2 days. Now I want more! Please finish telling us this story! I will stay a while and listen!
You are a smart guy. Every time you release a new the Diablo Lore video, I have to re watch all of them. Cuz I would forget everything. See you next year.
apparently this is the end of my Diablo lore binging. I'm well aware of somewhat yearly release of new recent episodes. btw, had a great time with lore hope you would continue making them.
I grew up on Diablo, playing since ‘97, and I didn’t even touch Diablo 2 until 2010 because I was so into D1. I LOVE the lore surrounding D1, so I loved this video. And I loved incorporating those scenes from D3. That’s one thing I absolutely adored when I first played Act 1 of D3. The nostalgia was everything.
Right there with ya! Tho i must say, D1 atmosphere was waaaay better than 3. D2 was pretty good too, i just don't get why they made leoric and the butcher so huge as opposed to their originals.
Great video, man. It's good to know that the Lore series is alive and kicking! I learned a lot from this episode. There are things that I didn't realize while playing D3 and other things that were not included, I'm sure because they were in previous games or books. It's always nice to hear you telling these stories, so keep it up! They go perfect with your voice :D
Leoric is definitely the most tragic character in the lore of Diablo and for me one of the most tragic even considering other games, books or movie characters. As you rightly pointed out, Diablo took from him his mind, his sanity, his love, his young son and his life. And after that, he also tooked his afterlife...
Woah, this was not shown to me at all, had to visit your channel to see it. Anyway... cool that you're making lore videos again. Next one next year? (:
I am not sure as to what I would prefer to be published first; Diablo 4 or the rest of this series episodes..... This should be a documentary powered by Blizzard, or even Netflix. Excellent work sir!
At last, the reason I'm subscribed to this channel in the first place, lol. This was a good one for relevant information. I've only every played the third game and wondered where this Skeleton King came from. I knew a bit about his life from the books and visions you see in the game, a few of which were in this video., but that still didn't explain how he became a powerful skeleton kind. So, can Diablo just do this to anyone after they die? Wonder why he doesn't do it more often then. You can get some powerful warriors this way.
By the Light! It actually happened! Put down your El'druin, get yourself a Horadric Hamburger, gather your friends, and tell them to stay awhile and listen, it's LORE time! It might just be me but I feel like there's a lot less cuts than usual. In any case.. Amazing! Praise the sun and pray to the Rhykker-God to bless us with more glorious lore videos!
And here we are, finally, on the precipice of the actual games themselves. If the next video doesn't cover at least part of Diablo 1 I'll be very surprised.
i love all the dnd refrences very nice, i roll nat 20's on stuff like caber tossing my allies, but when a devil is trying to corrupt my soul its all 1's and 2's i feel you leoric
Who wants to guess when Part 13 comes out?
2022?
2020? :D
Before Diablo 4?
Why would guessing that be fun? Love ya.
2021
I am naive, don't laugh
Over a thousand years, I've laid dormant, who dares to awake...Oh look is a lore video from Rhykker, cool!
I see you are a man of culture yourself.
Loved tfs
TFS reference.... A man of culture
Yo Blizzard, Put Rhykkers voice in D4.
Would be epic!
That would be sweet!
good idea
They should even make a character of him, not something major or minor but as an easter egg in the game.
I'm thinking of a dude in the town square. Ya know, "Greetings, Stay Awhile and Listen" kind of guy.
Boy has the world changed a lot since that last lore episode.
When a man says he'll do it, He'll DO it ... you don't need to remind him every six months.
Just like taking out the trash. Every six months.
Tick tock lol.
Series has been amazing btw. Hope for it to continue.
*nine months later*
one year later
really hope these become a monthly thing rather than a yearly series. xD love listening to Rhykker go through the lore with his sense of humor sprinkled in.
When is the next part coming out? "Not even Blizzard soon!"
Did you mean Activision soon? You know, whatever date maximises sales/revenue/EBITDA bottom line & shareholder confidence in their ongoing ability to slam the customers over a barrel & keep them coming back & begging for more?
Well, at least you did keep your word, that we would get a diablo lore video before D4 was released! Thanks!
This should be a good one - always wondered about Leoric, his possessed advisor, and the loyal friend that ran him through.
Lazarus "roll at least 21 to save yourself from demonic corruption."
Leoric "but the die only has twen--"
Lazarus "roll at least 21. Also your wife is plotting against you."
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just binged all 14 great videos, fucking hell I do not want to wait half a year for another one.
Glad I JUST discovered these vids, instead of when they first came out, I got to binge listen to them. Now I DO have to wait for the next one though. Looks like I will be staying awhile and listening.
though this lore series was dead, who knew it was still going.
Back from the dead, it seems.
I've reviewed the series from 1 and enjoyed this just as the first. Happy to be viewing the latest. This is an awesome channel and I greatly appreciate it. Thanks!!
"Today we discuss #insert_pretty_much_any_name_in_Sanctuary_history_here - one of the most tragic heroes of Diablo's lore"
You know, after starting to play grim dawn, the diablo universe dosent seem to be too bad...

Please continue this man. No one can explain the lore better than you.
Dude, I need part 13! Just binge your lore videos.
I just started playing Diablo starting with 3, so seeing who Leoric was and why my Witch Doctor is wearing his crown is a feeling like nothing else.

Last time Rhykker released a lore video, I still didn't have a phone
Seriously could sit and listen to Rhykker Diablo lore videos all day. PLEASE keep more coming
Thank you I have been waiting for a long time for a diablo lore video.
And now we beat him into submission over and over again for the rest of time. Such a happy ending :)
Doubt we seen everything they can do

Was just wondering a few days ago if you ever gonna continue with a lore series. Please, dont make us wait for another year :(
You are a smart guy. Every time you release a new the Diablo Lore video, I have to re watch all of them. Cuz I would forget everything. See you next year.
YOU are a real gem to the Community Rhykker. Dont stop!
apparently this is the end of my Diablo lore binging. I'm well aware of somewhat yearly release of new recent episodes. btw, had a great time with lore hope you would continue making them.

Okay, started watching this playlist a couple of days ago. I’m all caught up now. Ready for more content lolol
It’s here!!! Thanks for cranking out another lore video!
Great video, man. It's good to know that the Lore series is alive and kicking! I learned a lot from this episode. There are things that I didn't realize while playing D3 and other things that were not included, I'm sure because they were in previous games or books.
It's always nice to hear you telling these stories, so keep it up! They go perfect with your voice :D
I should up late to the party and you have so much content it could take me years to consume it! In any case I love the channel!
Great video series. Thanks for doing that, it's always a pleasure to listen to Diablo stories when it is done by you ^^.
Yo I just found this channel last week and already theres a new lore video while I am still on part 10
Good for you, now you'll wait a year like the rest of us 🤣
Hard to subscribe when episodes come out so rarely. Nonetheless the love the series and the idea is really unique, maybe next year. :D
OMG You are actually following up on the diablo lore series! Tyvm
Leoric is definitely the most tragic character in the lore of Diablo and for me one of the most tragic even considering other games, books or movie characters. As you rightly pointed out, Diablo took from him his mind, his sanity, his love, his young son and his life. And after that, he also tooked his afterlife...
Please make these more often your a great narrator!!
Great Lore series, hope the next part comes out soon ;-)

Woah, this was not shown to me at all, had to visit your channel to see it. Anyway... cool that you're making lore videos again. Next one next year? (:
Please keep up with the series. It's awsome and fun.
That dnd 3.5E reference was dope! I still hope we get to see you doing some dnd 5E videos someday
I've always enjoyed the Lore videos. Please make this a monthly or bi weekly thing.
I am still tuned for the next episode.. please?
This was great! I didn’t know you had this series
"Coocoo Bananas" found in every psychological DSM since the first edition.
finally...FINALLY, I've been waiting so long for this
Heck yeah 😎
I'm all caught up! Haha this series has been great! Can't wait for more!
Love this series bro
Thank you for the great lore videos. Are you making any more?
The history of diablo isn't the only thing to follow here but that of the channel as well.
It was great seeing you all at this year's reunion. See you all again in a year and a bit 👋
I am not sure as to what I would prefer to be published first; Diablo 4 or the rest of this series episodes.....
This should be a documentary powered by Blizzard, or even Netflix. Excellent work sir!
Dude you have no idea how long we've been waiting for this (well you might lol), thank you! Love the lore!
0:38 yea, he does lol :P
@@chunkymunkey9182 haha yeah I know he does. He's highlighted that point on other videos too. It was more of a "finally" comment.
At last, the reason I'm subscribed to this channel in the first place, lol. This was a good one for relevant information.

When is the next video?! I just binge watched them all today 😭
Great job this series, hope u keep going :D enjoyed watchin it :)
By the Light! It actually happened! Put down your El'druin, get yourself a Horadric Hamburger, gather your friends, and tell them to stay awhile and listen, it's LORE time!
It might just be me but I feel like there's a lot less cuts than usual.
In any case..
Amazing!
Praise the sun and pray to the Rhykker-God to bless us with more glorious lore videos!
Would love more lore episodes.
oh hell yeah the Diablo lore series is back.
Here's an idea: Why don't you put out a donation pool for Diablo Lore with a target amount and make the video when you reach the amount?
Getting close to that one year mark. That means Part 13 soon...Yay!
Yey! Can't wait for the next episode in 2022.
LOVE LOVE the D&D references. Will save DC & Lawful good on character sheet! Amazing.
And here we are, finally, on the precipice of the actual games themselves. If the next video doesn't cover at least part of Diablo 1 I'll be very surprised.
i love all the dnd refrences very nice, i roll nat 20's on stuff like caber tossing my allies, but when a devil is trying to corrupt my soul its all 1's and 2's i feel you leoric
Great narration voice. You could be young Cain. Thought about audio books?
Amazing as always. Worth the wait!
Please continue this series :(
Are we going to get a part 13? Catching up before Diablo IV
First time I learn that Leoric's wife actually had a name. Nice! :)
Excited for the next video!
YEEESSSS! I love this series please make more Rhykker
Love these man. So glad we got another one 🔥
It's almost been a year lmao
Love this series Rhykker
OMG IT'S BACK AND IT FEELS SO GOOD
Love dnd references! Do you stream dnd? Would love to see you play a diablo-centric campaign!
I do believe he did long ago. Not now though, as far as I know.
Binged this series today, tbh Leoric isn't the only tragic figure in the lore, he is probably just the most recent.
Marius and Tal Rasha suffered like a mf too
Wow....havent seen Lores for some time, thanks m8.
Great video as always!
Hope the next one comes before tho.
I can't believe we didn't get another installment of this as d2r ramped up. Launch day listening at work for hype :)
Thanks for another great lore video.
I need a million of these please
These videos are amazing, thank you rhykker for making these, hope not a year pass till the next one 🤪
Continue these PLEASE
Oh boy, I can't wait for the next part in 2022
Omg I clicked so fast. I've missed your lore videos 😭
YES ANOTHER LORE VIDEO! Man a year really went by fast huh lol
