Diablo 3. gameplay is very very close to D2, takes a few to get used to the damage shit and character set-up. but it's just as good. those saying otherwise, haven't gave the game a fair shake.

path of exile

OP here looks like I cant buy a physical copy of Path of Exile? Is it online only?
>>
>>676929191
I've played Diablo 3 for hundreds of hours, don't try to tell me I haven't given it a "fair shake". The game is very far removed from Diablo 2, and gets further and further away from it with every patch.

>>676929514
It's free to play.

I've put a hundred hours into this game hoping that it would get better somehow. It didn't, it's garbage and it doesn't play anything like D2 did. Either you're baiting, or you didn't play D2, or you have a mindset that makes it impossible for us to discuss this any further.

people like you have been complaining about D3 not being like D2 ever since it was released. Diablo 3 was never meant to be a reskinned Diablo 2. They aren't the same game, get over it.

Yes it's online only, but don't bother, it's shit

Passive tree is convoluted as fuck and they redo it every few weeks cause it's so shit with artificial depth and complexity, plus it's just your basic min maxing math instead of anything remotely interesting.

Skill gem system is stupid as fuck and is loot locked in a ridiculous amount of ways. Not only do you have to get the rare skill gems you want but you also have to have the right loot with the right amount of slots. It's fucking retarded, all stars have to align to get any decent build or have fun trying to trade 1000 hours or play 10k hours to get anything.

Either that or play Diablo 2

Champions of Norath, part 1&2. I think it's a much better game then Diablo. The hole set up is much better. The point system destitution weapons can be upgraded

>>676932879
OP here bruh Champions was my shiiiiiit still play it every now and again on my ps2. That game reminded me alot of D2. Loved it
>>
>>676928368
Grim Dawn is pretty excellent. If you want a similar experience but with a more ancient Rome/Greek feel, check out Titan Quest (get the gold version because it includes the expansion)
>>
>>676927794
There is no game similar to Diablo 2, the closest you will find to "similar" would be path of exile I can agree with that, but honestly if you're gonna play path of exile you may as well just keep playing Diablo 2 cause its better.
Titan Quest and Grim Dawn are great games and also are hack and slash like Diablo 2's genre. Diablo 3 is also hack and slash, but its very "meta" to do exactly one thing as each class is has no skill leveling system which is kind of boring. Torchlight and Torchlight 2 is almost an exact copy of Diablo and Diablo 2 aside from having worse classes to play obviously there are mods to make them similar but thats a lot of work to just play diablo 2.

If you can't tell I've pretty much settled for playing Diablo 2 in my free time and the other games with friends when they want me to. Also my opinion is very low of Diablo 3 for lack of customization options, but it does do what its trying to extremely well which is streamline each character and what everyone is doing.

To continue with my post, Grim Dawn is the newest of anything you'll find. I do believe it is single player offline or at least it has the option I've never not had internet while playing it though so I can't be positive. Titan Quest is a older version of Grim Dawn set in a different time period using the exact same system. I think you can find some fun in Grim Dawn or really any of the listed ARPGs Torchlight, Path of Exile, Titanquest, Grim Dawn, etc you just have to find one that fits your tastes. Mine is and probably will forever be Diablo 2 just because old time customizations being viable in every hard piece of content was a huge thing for me. I'm off to bed I will not be making another post see you and best of luck finding what you're looking for.

OMG iIT'S TOO HARD

erm, it's _actually challenging_, like Dark Souls is. if you want easy games go play fucking tiddlywinks, don't ask us for alternatives to diablo 2 that far surpass its predecessor.

its not that its too hard its just boring and overly complicated for absolutely no reason. D2 is still superior and a better choice to play even lacking in graphics.
>>
>>676927794
Mass effect2/3 1 is very story based and takes a lot of attention to detail. 2-3 have more action. Kotor 1&2 thou everyone knows Kotor 2 was fuvkered by the rearly release. And lastly I personally dig a game of 5th edition DnD with my buds over discord chat. (Some friends live outta state)

PoE is one of the great games still alive.
The design team is really, really good. One of the best team currently working, in my opinion.

If you like hack & slash, try Path of Exile. Play it for a few hours, see where you end up.

Torchlight2 and GrimDawn are nice. Path of Exile is complex in its own ways but is damn worth the headache.
>>
>>676927794
If you're really determined to play an offline game, and Path of Exile is too Hard Souls for you to deal with (man up, seriously), then try the Fate series, or Torchlight. either of those will occupy you for hours

no fucking way is d2 superior.

POE is everything I hoped d3 was going to be, and wasn't/ POE is _not_ overly complicated for no reason. they've been upgrading and tweaking and honing and balancing this thing *constantly* ever since before the Closed Beta I was a part of, was opened to the public (there was no act 2-4 back then)

POE requires thoughtful play and is COMPLEX but not COMPLICATED (learn the difference)

poe is a pos. i played since the beta testing and have spent money buying almost everything in the cs. i quit last year due to it being a rich mans game. sure, i can afford to play every fucking build imaginable, but whats the point when im so op i can play every fucking map by myself? i dont need a team.

poe is just anoher good idea turned to shit.

why in gods name would you buy all the marketplace stuff when it doesn't help you one bit? it's hardly a rich-man's game when NONE of the store items help you any (other than extra stash tabs) in game?

d2 is a pale shadow of its former self, riddled with spambots, and its builds are overused and stale and THERE IS NOTHING NEW AND WILL NEVER BE ANYTHING NEW

graphics are old and shit compared to today's graphics as well

you might as well go back and play DOOM because nothing will ever top that, right?

if you can't get out of d2, I feel sorry for you. You're missing out on so much more that life has to offer. tragic really.
>>
Path of Exile all the way. There is a learning curve, but if you find a guide or just sick with it a while it is very rewarding.

Oh and it's free. Really free only thing you can really buy is cosmetic. Can't buy anything to improve your actual character.

> get a loot filter if you do play it
>>
>>676940814
funny how bitter you are considering how much money you claim to have sunk into the game buying supporter packs and the like, whereas I've only bought one of the lower level closed beta packs, and still haven't spent half the points in the microtransaction store from that time

and somehow I still enjoy the game, and am immensely enjoying the new content released this March.

Whatever dude. go crawl back up d2's hole if that's your thing.

why spend all that money for a game you hated?

wtf I don't even ...

>>676940578
True, but playing seriously without extra stash tabs is impossible.

Additionally, it's almost impossible to compete if you don't have at least 4 public stash tabs for selling things quickly.

Thus i will disagree with anyone stating the game is free to play.
>>
>>676941004
loot filter + public stash tabs to facilitate trade + currency stash tab + labyrinth + vaal orb corruption randomness

so much win
>>
>>676941447
oh I get it, you're all about the competition, and how you measure up against everyone else -- not about just enjoying the game for its own sake

gotcha.

we're done here.
