Not only did the puzzles not make sense or contain much logic, the ending didn't really make sense either. It kind of seemed like just a way to plug god and the rapture.
Not bashing it because its a fanpiece of diablo 2, It's just a blatant copycat. If it had some sort of reference to Diablo 2 other than the portals looking similar, sound effects pulled from the game, and terrain vaguely resembling the world of diablo, I probably wouldn't be so hard on this as it would be an homage to it. Instead we get a second rate version of a now bargain bin game that came out 10 years ago. It's ok, the controls are a little fussy, and the other characters are essentially useless until halfway through the first act. I'd also like to point out that the rain effects sound like someone trying to mow their lawn in the rain with cars driving by constantly. I don't know where you pulled that sound clip from but it sounds way too mechanical to be associated with swords and maces.
I saw this back during my first run on Newgrounds, my comp was so ancient it could hardly handle this game. I gave it a high rating though, and I remember it vividly, so I decided to take a trip back and check it out. It was ok the second time around, definitely didnt live up to the hype that it had before. I think it was cool because we were younger then and no one would ever dare do this to Harry Potter. Now it's like "who gives a fuck". So it loses its shock value, which is about the only thing it had going for it back then
It was good, I liked the animation a lot, very smooth. My biggest issue is in the voicing. It's not that the acting is terrible, it could be better, but that it seems your mic isn't of that good of quality. I know you probably did this with whatever you had around, but in contrast to the background music, the compression is painfully obvious. It causes the male character to sound childish and almost like a girl. I don't know if a girl voiced it, but that's what it sounds like due to a lack of low end. Not bad otherwise
Cool old school feel, like Tom and Jerry with the repetitive scenarios, but it kinda fell flat. The artwork was good, but the rest was meh. The antics were either predictable or just not that funny. I always thought this type of cartoon could be a bit more profane if approached by an adult perspective, unlike Loony Toons, where even though its geared toward kids there's subtle hints. This is the internet, you can go all out here.
That was stupid, you just exploited someone else's work in a song and made a pointless, unfunny music video about it. If you wrote your own song, it'd probably be better, but it still sucked.

Don't understand

Clearly Diablo 2 fanwork

Thanks!
As for the voice, he's a very childish character whose balls haven't dropped yet. So I guess it's a success? xD

Ok.
Cool old school feel, like Tom and Jerry with the repetitive scenarios, but it kinda fell flat. The artwork was good, but the rest was meh. The antics were either predictable or just not that funny.

Pretty bad
The animation was solid, but the jokes felt like they were strung together by an autistic kid. None of them were funny.

Exploitation
