The most immediately readable action RPG of its generation: abilities are swappable at will, combat is fast and legible, and the seasonal loop is well tuned. That flexibility is also the criticism — builds are largely decided by set bonuses, so character identity comes from gear drops rather than from choices you make.

Released 7 years after Battle for Wesnoth.
