For anyone who decides to play the game, I recommend playing it on Hard right away. Normal really should be called "Easy".

I would think most the cloneyness comes from the fact that it was made by a bunch of former Blizzard North members, right down to the music composer.

Needless to say, I am interested.

I wouldn't call orchlight a Diablo clone. It's made by the co-founders of Blizzard (who left Blizzard to start Runic Games) and the composer of Diablo I and Diablo II (Matt Uemlen). I'd say Diablo 3 is the clone XD

Got anymore Diablo clones?

@xChrisBoulterx I gave it a fair chance, i was unbiased and actually hoped that it would satisfy my craving for another Diablo type game but it didnt. The gameplay is ok, the graphics are far superior to D2 but there was just something about it i didnt like. It didnt feel like it was made by the same creators but more like a ripoff. I think the thing i disliked the most is that you cant play it online

@AnybodyKillMe This game was made by the very people that brought you Diablo 2. And what about Diablo 2 do you find so superior? Do you really find the ability to level a character to lvl 90+ in a single day is a good thing? In my opinion, Diablo 2 was refined by its community to a point that it doesn't even resemble a game anymore, merely a repetitive time vampire. Also, this is the first of a new IP, so it should be compared to the likes of Diablo 1, which these people also made, idiot.

Doesnt hold a candle up to D2

haa that music.... matt uelmen you are the best!

the game is really not that hard if you have at least some gear and money to buy potions. since you do not have both very early in the game starting on hard was more annoying than enjoyable to me. so unless you like playing slow and extremely careful (i don't, shame on me), you may want to start on a lower difficulty and gather some stuff before advancing to higher levels.

Maybe this looks like Diablo but this dont that best dark climate.:D

This game is more like Fate then Diablo 1 or 2. If you really want a Diablo clone game, play Sacred and Sacred 2. Sacred is what happens when Neverwinter Nights and Diablo 2 get in bed together. The game is longer then Diablo 2 and is more complicated like Neverwinter Nights. As much as I like Diablo 2, I like Sacred much better, and this is coming from someone who has played DIablo 2 for years and wrote a TPPK program for Hardcore Bnet. So don't think for a moment I am bashing DIablo 2 :)
