Man, the Diablo lore deserves to be told with such a voice. I'm so happy every time you release one of these. I wish D4 hired you to voiceover all these journals I expect to find along the way.
I've always been so interested in the lore of Diablo 2. Exactly for one of these reasons here like how did the rogues get corrupted and why you were fighting them. Where did Andariel and Duriel come from? How did the zakarum get corrupted and turn into zealots? etc. I hope you go into these details at some point in the future as well!
As with all the Great Evils, Duriel & Andariel was spawned from one of the seven heads of Tathamet. Andariel rule the Realm of Anguish while Duriel rule the Realm of Pain in Hell.
Andy and duriel are evils from the original prime evil tathomet. Tathomet split off into 7 particles, which were divided by lesser and greater evils. Andy and duriel are basically part of the 4 lesser evils, with the other lesser evils being belial and asmodan. Everyone knows the 3 other evils - diable, baal, and mephisto.
I will only ever follow one streamer and that’s Rhykker. Diablo is my all time favorite series and he handles all content across the board beautifully. Even when I know the lore, I can’t wait to hear his take on it! 12/10 would game with.
Awesome vid! With D4 around the corner, I feel people may seek these lore videos more. I for one would love more of these, to fully explain everything up to D4.
I don’t think people realize the time it takes to research and write out the script for something like this. Probably many takes. Quality work, appreciate every episode. New to the channel and to your work, and diablo 4 in general. Thank you
Just finished all your lore videos, loved all of them! Can’t wait for the remaining Parts! (Please don’t wait another year) This is truly a great way to refresh your Diablo lore :)
Great story telling. Can't wait for the next episode. I've been playing Diablo ever since I picked up a demo CD at Walden software nearly 26 years ago.
Just finished my second round watching all the lore videos. I love this series! I grew up playing Diablo and only knew some of the lore and history. This brings it all together and it is fantastic. Thank you Rhykker for doing what you do! Can’t wait for the next one!
I’ve played Diablo 2 for 15 years. And I never new 90% of this info. I’ve binged this series now for the last two days. I’m so glad I waited until it was basically finished to start it. You guys waiting 2 years for 2 videos is NUTS. Longest blue balls ever!
I could be wrong but I remember something about the lesser evils 'overthrowing' the prime evils being a part of the plan all along and that's why we see Andariel working for Diablo again in 2. I want to say it was mentioned in 2 somewhere but I can't remember the source exactly.
It was definitely part of the Prime Evils' plan. But the Lesser Evils weren't really aware of that and were legitimately trying to overthrow them. Or maybe Andariel and/or Duriel were aware of it and just played along with Belial and Azmodan. That's not something that's been revealed. Would make sense though, as it was always really Azmodan and Belial that were looking to be the new rulers of Hell, feeling like the Prime Evils were fools to obsess over trying to convert humans to cause so much (ironic since mortals seem like easy prey to be corrupted by sin and lies, but whatever), and they thought they had become complacent/incompetent (also ironic considering how pathetic the nephalem made them both look in Diablo 3). So yeah, perhaps the pain twins just pretended to go along with it after their master, Diablo, let them in on the greater plan. I hope we got some clarity on that eventually. I'm also really interested to find out: A. How Mephisto and Baal and the Lesser Evils reacted to Diablo basically duping and using them all in his failed plan to become the sole leader of Hell and destroy/corrupt Heaven himself. B. Why are Andariel and Duriel back in Sanctuary again and why are they seemingly serving Lilith? Just the D4 devs making an obvious play on nostalgia or an actual good reason?
Played the D4 beta last weekend, and came here to catch up on the lore. Thanks so much for the time an effort you put iinto these videos. Wonderful job and your work is appreciated!
and what about the artifact? ... if the sightless eye was in the monastery, but demons invaded it, did akara manage to bring it out with her or remained it there? since this story retcon is not adressed ingame, there is no way to say if akara just mumbled about the lost malus but not about the lost eye cuz she had it in her tent, or cuz at the time of d2 there was no such thing yet
This was amazing! Do you have a playlist with all the lore videos in order? This was the first one I saw. Man, you have a hell of a voice, kept me engaged the whole time. Great job dude!
Hey man I just caught up with your video loving the series so far, I saw you put on the Comments a disclaimer on Established Titles, but yeah I think a patron or something like that would be better than a scam service as Scott Shafer and many others already posted videos on this sponsor. Anyway looking forward for future episodes.
Love this, keep going! D4 is still a bit aways, and we all know so much more now (which maybe makes ur job harder?)…. But a lore recap continuation UP TO D4 would be ****ing amazing!
Who is M'avina? I have always wondered who this person is that the Amazon class select is named after? Amazon and Rogue are my favorite I always play as them.
hey man i’m not sure if you’ve heard but established titles is getting flamed because they’ve been called out for being a complete scam. so it’d probably be best if you cut ties with them and didn’t feature them in any future videos.
Where is part 13? The last I saw in this playlist was the story that essentially covered Diablo 1, which was part 12, and the next one that queued in this same playlist, talking about essentially the aftermath of Diablo 1, was part 14. Was there another video somewhere else that I missed?
fuck yeah, love these lore videos man! and only 4 months from the last one, instead of a whole year this time 😂 jk man, keep up the good work; this was another good one 👍🏼
Do you have or know of a video about the lore behind gear named after people, some like tal rasha are pretty straightforward but I can't seem to find much about some of the other sets and uniques
I still long for the day, where everything Diablo gets put into visuals... The story of Diablo 1-4 gets put on screen... Hell, i don't even need a Hollywood production... An animated version a lá "Arcane" would be insanely nice... Make it a series, where every little bit of lore gets shown and explained... I would watch that over and over again... Thank you for a great video brother... That was beautifully told...
I'm sad that two of my favorites absolutely step on the toes of existing classes, the demon hunter and witch doctor. Maybe they can remake them more into their own things one day

Good to see that people have found out that this business is a complete scam, they dont even plant the trees or donate to have them planted
This "Established Titles" company is already explained by some youtuber that it's a scam.
Why are you saying that it's just a novelty gift? It's a scam, and you're helping facilitate that.
Wait a moment. I can’t become the owner of Scotland? Son, I’m disappointed.
So many have exposed this company to be scam artists, don't work with them and DON'T buy from them!
I am so glad we have Rhykkerd Cain to stay and listen to.
OMG rhykkerd Cain how didnt i though of that brilhant
@@LordDany omg he put two names together HOW BRILLIANT
Wouldn't have thought of that in a million gazillion years
@@NakedAvanger your a clown 🤡
@@NakedAvanger hur dur
I'm def gna stay a while and listen
When I've watched the whole playlist I felt sorry for those who waited the newer episodes.
Now I've became one of them. See you next year, partners!
I'm just joking, of course, take your time, your job is amazing, this lore videos are a treat, I love it!
Thank you!
Man, the Diablo lore deserves to be told with such a voice. I'm so happy every time you release one of these. I wish D4 hired you to voiceover all these journals I expect to find along the way.
Rhykker couold get his own lorekeeper character with journals to find hidden here and there~
He has a fantastic voice would love that.
Wait....Rhykker released 2 Diablo Lore videos this year??? What's next?? Cthulhu awakens?? This is an awesome series. Thank you Rhykker 💜
Rhykker's becoming the real life Deckard Cain, I feel....
Mainly cuz I stayed a while and listened...
Deckard Rhykker 😆
@@pikke2010 Rhykker Cain is more like it
Deckard Rhykker Cain
Hope he stays away from butterflies
Keep doing these please, I binge watched all of the episodes in 1 day

A lot of this is explained in-game in Diablo 2 & 3 and the novels.
As with all the Great Evils, Duriel & Andariel was spawned from one of the seven heads of Tathamet. Andariel rule the Realm of Anguish while Duriel rule the Realm of Pain in Hell.
Andy and duriel are evils from the original prime evil tathomet. Tathomet split off into 7 particles, which were divided by lesser and greater evils.

I've read all the source material and still feel like I missed some things, cheers for making it entertaining Rykker
Great story telling. Can't wait for the next episode. I've been playing Diablo ever since I picked up a demo CD at Walden software nearly 26 years ago.
These videos are the main reason I sub, you make it sound so interesting it’s addictive
God bless your voice
Our annual lore video! Thanks Rhy! 😍

Wooooh-hooo! it's a brand new lore video! Thanks Rhykker!
Keep the lore coming my man
So Adria is literally the "Kid smiling in front of her house on fire" meme.
Not sure she was smiling after her mom was murdered and daddy came back home because he had money
the bitch is bonkers 😂
Played the D4 beta last weekend, and came here to catch up on the lore. Thanks so much for the time an effort you put iinto these videos. Wonderful job and your work is appreciated!
Yesss! More diablo lore with rhykker! Huge thanks for the video man!
The stay a while and listen impersonation xD So good mate!
Always great to have one of these lore episodes
and what about the artifact? ... if the sightless eye was in the monastery, but demons invaded it, did akara manage to bring it out with her or remained it there? since this story retcon is not adressed ingame, there is no way to say if akara just mumbled about the lost malus but not about the lost eye cuz she had it in her tent, or cuz at the time of d2 there was no such thing yet
In dire need of the next part of the lore! Rhykker PLEASE 😩
Thank you so much for these videos. They always brighten my day. Also your Cain is on point
D4 coming up, need more of these!
Really hope you finish the diablo 2 video soon!
Established Titles must be sponsoring every damn channel on TH-cam. I have seen them plugged on almost every channel I'm subbed too lol.
This was amazing! Do you have a playlist with all the lore videos in order? This was the first one I saw. Man, you have a hell of a voice, kept me engaged the whole time. Great job dude!
Thanks! I do have a playlist, or you can find them on rhykker.com
@9:28 where did the dark wanderer actually summon up AndAriel? Also how? randomly out front of the monistary?
Your Cain impersonation is pretty good. I ended up replaying it a couple times.
outstanding storytelling, thanks so much for this series rhykker
These lore videos are a godsend Rhykker! I shall be eagerly waiting for the next episode ^^
Hey man I just caught up with your video loving the series so far, I saw you put on the Comments a disclaimer on Established Titles, but yeah I think a patron or something like that would be better than a scam service as Scott Shafer and many others already posted videos on this sponsor. Anyway looking forward for future episodes.
Rhykard never fails to retell D1 to D4's lore with clarity that peaks your interest, hopefully we get more of it on D4 next soon!!
Rhykard?? He is rhykker!
Richard does dis very great gut!
Rhykard Cain.
Really Happy you're picking your lore videos back up. Always excellent. I love this content
Did not know you started up the lore videos again. Looking forward to catching up.
Ohhh.. Can't wait to have a phone for the Diablo Immortal Arc.
its been ages since the last lore video, i hope they come more often now :)
Its a little sad... the Lore series is amazing.. but I swear the videos don't get many likes :(
People like the videos!
Probably would get more likes if he did them more than once a year
Hey Rhykker hope your doing okay man.
Your channel has really helped me throughout the years. Thank you, and I will always be a fan.
We've come a long way since Anu! Can't get enough of these lore videos! I do hope this lore series can catch up in time for D4
Bro... your Deckard Cain voice is uncomparably good.
Love the lore videos!
Rhykker, please finish the lore up to start of d4 prior to launch. Please and thank you. That is all.
Is it an early Christmas? Lore video from Rhykker?
I just finished watching the whole series, Rhykker my brother great work, hope we can catch up with D3 and D4 too !
Love this, keep going! D4 is still a bit aways, and we all know so much more now (which maybe makes ur job harder?)…. But a lore recap continuation UP TO D4 would be ****ing amazing!
Came to 'stay awhile, and listen' and was not disappointed 😃
Before watching: This is gonna be fucking sweet
After watching: That was fucking sweet
Love your lore videos bro !
Who is M'avina? I have always wondered who this person is that the Amazon class select is named after? Amazon and Rogue are my favorite I always play as them.
Tick Tock, Tick Tock - June is approaching and I need more Lore Fix!!!!! Love the series.
If you’re planning on hitting the quota before D4 releases… your window is limited! Great job on the videos, and the telling of the story.
thanks, love these lore videos, see you next year! :)
hey man i’m not sure if you’ve heard but established titles is getting flamed because they’ve been called out for being a complete scam. so it’d probably be best if you cut ties with them and didn’t feature them in any future videos.
I now wonder, when are we gonna get this... Oracle caste in the game as like an actual player character class
Rhykker is wielding that nerdy Diablo lore humor like a bloody cleaver. Love it!
I laughed so much!
Just watched all of these and raelised its been 4 years in the making of. Please bring out the next one starting up D2
Why did we skip backwards? Cuz like the other videos already explained this stuff?
YAAAYY another lore video ! Finaly :) THANK YOU
@rhykker just out here patiently waiting for another episode before D4 release
I enjoy these videos so so much. Who needs a Netflix animated series, we have Rhykker!
great series, crossing my finger for more in the lead up to D4's release
So... you only have 69(!) days until release od D4. Please hurry and help us catch up on the Lore! I promise, I'll stay a while and listen.
Whoo hoo more lore, love these
Yay another lore video!
Love the lore series!
Glad I waited until now to watch this series. I don't think I would have been able to handle the wait between episodes. Lol
Where is part 13? The last I saw in this playlist was the story that essentially covered Diablo 1, which was part 12, and the next one that queued in this same playlist, talking about essentially the aftermath of Diablo 1, was part 14. Was there another video somewhere else that I missed?
Nice lore update 🤘
Since Aidan was the crowned Prince and future ruler of Khanduras. That would make Leah a princess. She's royalty.
Cant wait for D4!!
Me too!
me to,gonna be banger i hope
I'm so sorry dude 😞
Covid22?
Lulz. Employees
fuck yeah, love these lore videos man!
and only 4 months from the last one, instead of a whole year this time 😂
jk man, keep up the good work; this was another good one 👍🏼
15:57 Got chills. xD
Pls have a playlist of lores if there's none yet! Real interesting stuff!
There is a playlist!
@@Rhykker thanks! I'll definitely check em after work!!
You do a reasonable Deckard impression, I'm impressed.
Do you have or know of a video about the lore behind gear named after people, some like tal rasha are pretty straightforward but I can't seem to find much about some of the other sets and uniques
so I found this yesterday, as I follow Rhykker mostly for Path of Exile and bingewatched it... so...
how many years will I have to wait?
Its about time we got another lore video hell yea
I still long for the day, where everything Diablo gets put into visuals... The story of Diablo 1-4 gets put on screen... Hell, i don't even need a Hollywood production... An animated version a lá "Arcane" would be insanely nice... Make it a series, where every little bit of lore gets shown and explained... I would watch that over and over again...
Thank you for a great video brother... That was beautifully told...
@Rhykker Where is part 13? It's not in your video catalogue here. Last one I could find before this one was "who killed Diablo"
Nvm, you miscounted lol
It would be interesting if instead of getting the Amazon class again in D4, we got Oracles this time.
I'm sad that two of my favorites absolutely step on the toes of existing classes, the demon hunter and witch doctor. Maybe they can remake them more into their own things one day
WE NEED to have the full story up to Diablo 4 before the 6th of June. Make it happen plz!!!
hope you release the next part diablo 2. keep up the good work
"You know, Wandering in the Dark... And that's why they called him... Prince Aidan" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Honestly Rhykker, you're the best
Plz moooore! I love this series so much!
Where can i get that thumbnail art or all the other art shown in this video?
Straight gasm at that Deckard Cain impersonation.
yaaay new lore video 🤩
Can we get more lore videos rhykker we need to refresh all the info before diablo 4 launch
these videos are really good.
cant wait for more!
14:48 I don't recall the camp being overrun by barbarians :P.
4:30 did my guy just casually flex a horadric cube, refusing to elaborate?
So, the new D4 map seems to completely redraw the world of Sanctuary…
