I was considering giving a Diablo game a shot for the first time, not anymore, this is just dumb
There are better games than Diablo nowadays. I've been having a blast on Grim Dawn.
Is it similar? I loved D2 but despised D3
I loved d2, d3 I played for a while but a drop in the bucket compared to the original d2. Grim dawn also didn't grip me and neither did path of exile.
I'm afraid I'm just chasing the nostalgia of one of my favorite childhood games that nothing really has a hope of living up to.
Grim Dawn was my Diablo 2 fix. It runs decently, has a dark atmosphere (though if you want story and lore you'll have to read a lot in-game) and cool items.
Also a massive world, especially with the DLCs. Definitely worth playing in my opinion :)
You get nearly free unlimited respecs, the only thing you can't undo is your 2 classes you choose.
I'll second Grim Dawn. It's pretty great.
Grim Dawn is the best Diablo game I've played.
You can still try the earlier Diablo games. Diablo 1 with Belzebub mod is pretty fun (or get DevilutionX if you want a more authentic experience but with some modern QoL stuff), Diablo 2 with Project Diablo 2 mod is even more fun (probably the best Diablo variant IMO), and there's also Blizzard's official Diablo 2 Resurrected, if you can't tolerate old school graphics.
