Ex-Blizzard-North-Gamedesigner published a clone of the classical game.

While Blizzard is working on Diablo 3, a small gamestudio released a new valuable Diablo-clone. No surprise, because the maker are the one, who invented the legendary Diablo series.

Pro:
- Level layouts are randomly created, which brings unique adventures
- Easy interface
- Retirement System
- Pets
- Each character is custom-tailored and different
- Fishing
- Editor for own contents
- The graphic isn't high-end like in GTA IV or any other new game, but it is still a colorful beautiful graphic
- Costs only 15€
- Also runs on old computers (reqs: CPU 800 MHz, 512 MByte RAM and a graphic card with 64 MByte RAM, takes 800 MB of the harddrive. Download size: 370 MB)

Cons:
- Only buyable over the internet
- No multiplayer
- English only
- completely trivial treatment
- Very boring after a time
- Small amount of heroes

I present this game, because you don't hear much about this game, although its the best diablo clone available.
 
It looks pretty awesome.
I might actually get into this genre of games :pimp:
 
That's pretty nice graphics for a game built for low-spec requirements.
 
An Awesome Game , I spend all of my time to it today after school :thumbsup:
 
Torchlight The best diablo 2 clone

...torchlights by the same gang who did diablo, though, isnt it?

And lemme confuse the question by adding another:

torchlight vs. borderlands vs. Sacred 2?
 
Not the whole gang, only Max and Erich Schaefer. They were the founders of Blizzard North and took a big part in the inventions and development of the diablo-series.

A small history:
- the schaefers founded with few others a new studio, "Flagship" in 2003. The main product of the studio was "Hellgate: London", but a few months after the publish the company went out of business.
- the schaefers founded a new studio, again, called "Runic Games". And now this company has published Torchlight.
