Board 8 > Guys, I need a good class based game where you level up your character.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Genre doesn't matter. I've been playing Deus Ex and Renegade Ops recently, and since Diablo 3 is god knows how far away, I need something to scratch that itch temporarily.

Something on Steam would be best, but I'm open to suggestions.

Torchlight / Titan Quest

Every good MMO out there.

I might continue with my Alchemist on Torchlight, but I find that game incredibly underwhelming. Titan Quest demo seemed pretty cool a few years ago, maybe I'll give that a shot.

MMOs are definitely interesting to me, but I'm looking for a more temporary thing.

I was thinking SRPGs with character creation, but that doesn't really match the examples you gave.

Titan Quest is amazing imo, you can dual class and do pretty much whatever the **** you want.

For instance my first character was a fire mage that never used magic because her fire enchant was enough to destroy anything with melee, so I went with Warrior as my second class and I become an unstoppable juggernaut of destructions.

And it was awesome.

RPGs work. Ideally, I'm looking for something that has some sort of skill tree or loot system. Diablo 2 is a good example, but I know there are a lot of genres that can pull off the same thing.

Penny Arcade has been raving about Crimson Alliance. They say it's more like the Gauntlet games than like Diablo, though. It's free to play in only the loosest definition of the term, but to gain access to all the content out there is fifteen dollars.

Well The Dark Spire and Etrian Odyssey are dungeon crawlers with class and level systems. Etrian Odyssey has something similar to a skill tree, while The Dark Spire has you buy skills with experience points, and lets you equip a certain number of spells depending on your number of levels in the spellcasting classes.

I'm honestly considering installing Diablo 2. Might not be a bad idea.

So yeah, I ended up installing Diablo 2 and LOD.

Thanks for the help everyone! I learned about a lot of awesome sounding games!

Wait, have you never played Diablo II?

I have a feeling he's just replaying it.

No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck.

Yeah, just replaying it. It's been a few years.

All this talk of Diablo II, and not even a mention for Borderlands? It's basically just Diablo II in FPS form.
