Diablo-esque games list....
Nightstone, a poor Diablo clone, but funny and with a very user friendly level editor.
Albion, an old game, not played. Evil Islands: Curse of the Lost Soul, between an RPG and an ARPG. 2001 Dimensity, an Eastern Europe ARPG. Rather than Baldur's Gate, I would say Icewind Dale, more action focused. Planet Alcatraz, a SF ARPG (never played). Tsukikage no Destiny 月影のデスティニー, a Chinese RPG (translated in Japanese) with a lot of action and splendid character design. Edited by Falcom. http://www.falcom.co.jp/moon/ Tôken hôma-roku 刀剣封魔録 : another Chinese ARPG (translated in Japanese) set in Middle Ages China. Old but fun. Edited in 2002 by Kôga-dô studio. http://www.kogado.com/html/kogado.htm The Japanese free Action RPG site : http://dimguilgames.jp/roleplaying/action/ You should put all the titles in alphabetical order while it is still feasible. |

" icewind dale classic... :D "turn based rpg's are for people who have sausage fingers" -me

Ahhh infinity engine. Loved those games.

Well, original Diablo was classified as another rogue-like, so lets mention
Rogue, Angband, ADOM, NetHack and another less successfull billion of them) Also not to forget The Elder Scrolls 1-4 |
|
I think Oblivion broke the mold on the Elder Scrolls series. I mean the melee combat was great, but in Morrowind it was more of the Diablo click fest.
As for the other titles, thank you very much. I will add them to the list. Another side note, I will be putting them in alphabetical order, as well as linking them to there reviews/screenshots. | |
I'd rather put Planet Alcatraz in the SF - other section...
By the way, you put the Chinese characters for one game but not for the other. I forgot Numen, contest of Heroes. Nice job till now ! Continue. |
|
I'm having a rough start this morning lol. I still don't see the chinese game I missed.
Anyway, not that it makes a difference, out of all the "Recommend me a Diablo clone" games lists on the internet, I now believe we have the most comprehensive. Call the Guiness world book of records lol. Should I give the rogue games there own listing? I agree they are the predecessor to the ARPG genre, but may not fit so will into the actual ARPG listing. | |
" You just missed the original name (in Chinese and Japanese characters) of Tsukikage no Destiny 月影のデスティニー Yes, you should put the Roguelikes in a different category, but there are plenty of roguelikes... Nice work. |
