  1. Diablo 2 LoD - based on its legacy and legendary status and impact in my life
  2. PoE - Arguably the best of all time so far in terms of the most complete, diversity and systems
  3. Titan Quest
  4. Grim Dawn
  5. Last Epoch (unreleased but have played a few hundred hours and i does so many things so well)

To me, Diablo 3 was the greatest disappointment in gaming history, despite being a financial success generally speaking. And im also very much unimpressed by the torchlight series.

Diablo 1 is a memorable mention, but since i didnt get to experience its early days and only had a bunch of fun years after it’s release, i wont include in my top list.

Wondering why no1 mentioned Mythos

Diablo 4
Diablo 2
Diablo 1
Path of Exile

In that order. Unpopular opinion, I know. But honest.

D3 RoS

Because more crap games like Diablo 3 will be made (see d4) instead of branching off the superior D2/PoE model. D3 is the Michael Bay movie of the arpg genre. It’s fun for an hour or two, and then you realize it’s shallow and not good.

Well, I for one hope they make tons of crap games like D3 then becuase I loved D3 :slight_smile:
Like I said, entertainment is subjective. What you find to be best might be someone’s worst and you would both be right.

It’s not a crap game if people liked it. Lots of people myself included loved D3 and played thousands of hours. Just cause you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s crap :tipping_hand_woman:

The dumbing down and casualfication of games has been a blight on gaming for a few decades now. It’s not good. We don’t need even more casual garbage on the market. People need to be able to use their brains a bit and problem solve. There are already lots of casual games out there for people to play, the Diablo series doesn’t need to keep moving that direction. Make a new ip if you want to do that.

  1. Dark Souls 3
  2. PoE
  3. Grim Dawn
  4. Elden Ring
  5. Fallout 4

Dumbing down huh? Ok, I can see continuing this is going to be pointless for both of us. Think what you like.
