✓ Same family of isometric Action RPGs: deep RPG systems, action RPG combat and adventure storytelling

≠ Its own twist: multiplayer gameplay and co op, while skipping combat magic

A faithful rebuild rather than a reinvention: the original's systems are untouched underneath, including the harsh ones — no shared stash across seasons at launch, respecs are limited, and skill points are permanent. That rigidity is the appeal for some and the barrier for others. Expect to consult a build guide before spending anything.
