Finally got around to watching it. Frikkin' amazing. I can't wait.


I do wish Warcraft and Starcraft got some animation though, instead of just comics and novels. Kinda like what Bioware is doing with Mass Effect and Dragon Age (and I think EA also released some Dead Space films of dubious quality).

I could see this being the first step for them to create more animation projects... Even though i do enjoy Anime (which they seemed to be interested in) i do not think it would suit any of the three Universes and i would rather see more of this .

I'm not a huge fan of the wings on the other angels. I always loved the ribbons of light on Tyrael and kind of wish they were universal in the style. The animation quality was decent, but I didn't get a strict Diablo feel from it. Over all it was a nice introduction to some of the Archs.

Reminded me of Spawn a lot, not that that's a bad thing.

It seems the ribbons are there when they are in movement but when stopped they take a more solid form

Kinda neat concept actually

That makes me think Imperious is headed on a dark, dark path.

I liked it. Wish it was longer, wish Blizz would do some more animation for their other franchises.


I do wonder if Imperius isn't just "headed" on a dark path, but that he's already significantly different from the other angels. While the rest favor cooler colors (which we couldn't have figured out from the book of cain) Imperius is much warmer, and even has orange wings. Similarly, he's the only angel with a helmet rather than a hood... as if he has to hide something. And then Diablo said he's afraid that the other angels might find out what he "really is"- while that could speak of his personality... perhaps he's something else, something more than angel, already?

I made the same observations, also Imperius didnt want Diablo telling the others anything so he struck him down quickly

Something is amiss

I think it's how closely "valor" is becoming to "wrath," which is more of a demonic vice. What if Diablo wants to use Imperius himself as a host with which to merge?

Imperius bled like an angel when Diablo hit him.

I imagine he's becoming twisted with his desires to vanquish the forces of Hell and anyone who would follow them.

He killed Diablo because he couldn't stand one of the prime evils being allowed to live, and his pride may have been hurt he needed the others help. He seems as a very pride driven character, to me.

That's besides the fact that Diablo goaded him into it, in the attempt to split the council's unity up.

The fact that this short was about Imperius hints that he'll play a big role in Diablo 3. He reminded me of Varian in a way, with his anger issues and all.
With Varian going on the path of redemption, I guess we'll see the other side of the coin with Imperius.
But I'd really like it if Blizzard could surprise us with something entirely new. I hope they have new stories to tell instead of just recycled ones.

Anyway, I liked the short. It's good to see other people appreciating it here. I saw so much hate on other sites that it's disturbing.

That was a pretty good animation thing.

Though, someone from Fires of Heaven made me laugh with:

"God damn those anime fags, making even Diablo look gay."

Well considering Diablo has a different body every time he's reincarnated and the fact that perhaps the short takes place sometime in the past I don't see a problem with that.
