Borderlands 2 is really good as well, but I’m just not that big of a FPS player.
Torchlight 2 was decent but never really clicked with me. Path of Exile is a lot of fun to theorycraft but Diablo 3 is actually fun to play. Yes, the loot system is a mess and the always online-requirement is a pain (although apparently the console version won’t have that problem), but the actual moment-to-moment gameplay in Diablo 3 is vastly superior to its competitors. Of the games that are actually finished, I think I’m going to have to side with Diablo 3. Unfortunately, it’s still a long ways from being finished – right now, it’s in alpha with only 3 of the 5 planned classes implemented & only the first act of the game playable (which is about 5-6 hours, I’d say). It takes all of my favorite parts of Titan Quest & improves everything. Out of these 5 games, I’d say Grim Dawn is shaping up to be my favorite. LV-Up choices limited compared to most games of this style +Change of Pace (FPS + RPG whereas most games like this are top-down) +Improved Combat from Titan Quest (which was rather slow paced & bland ala Path of Exile) +Interesting multi-class skill point system (same basic setup as Titan Quest) Even unique equipment tends to feel like just a bunch of random abilities Can be overwhelming with all the permanent build choices that need to be made. Skills are item-based which can make it frustrating to get all of the skills you want (and some of them can only be acquired from random drops or trading with other players). There are too many things to take into account for the best gear (appropriate requirements, good stats, the passives you want, a high number of skill slots in the right color and all linked together) which makes it very hard to progress past a certain point. Online-only and lag & desynch are far worse & more common than they are in Diablo 3.

+Free! And actually free unlike most freemium titles (you can’t buy gameplay advantage even if you wanted to). +LV-Up system ala FF10 allows for immense customization opportunities.
+Skill system ala FF7 allows for customizing abilities with various supports. +Excellent loot system allows for lots of crafting & customization. Lack of permanent choices can bother some. Online-only so if your connection or their server has problems, you can’t play (or have serious lag). At higher levels, you generally need to get most of your loot from the auction house rather than from drops or crafting to stay competitive. +Easy to try out different builds since build choices aren’t permanent. +Life-Up Power-Ups & Potion Cooldown make HP matter I’m a big fan of random loot-based RPG so I thought for today’s article, I’d discuss the pros and cons of some of the major ones out there at the moment.
