    I can't believe no one here has talked about this game. Its true F2P Action RPG very Diabloesque. Its crowd funded via donations. Its in beta, we have given away a ton of keys for this game. You can donate to get in the beta we aren't getting any more keys as its free and going to be out soon. Basiclaly its diablo II on steroids with a ridiculous skill tree and some awesome customization. for one you can create tourneys and leagues with specific rulesets. They have hardcore leagues with permadeath for one. Arena style pvp leagues etc. The great thing is they take community suggestions for rulesets and eventually you can make your own. We did an 80 minute gameplay walkthru with the lead dev you can check out.



    Its pretty fun and it should be out around June where you can get it for free. The microtransactions are purely cosmetic. They basically take donations if you like it and so far its been getting a great response.

    I took a look at it a while back, but the info from their website didn't really impress me (and I didn't get into the random beta, so I couldn't see in game). At this point, I'd rather play myself some D3, but then again I pretty much can't not play it ;)

    I really want this game to be good. just unsure how good it is. Kinda feeling lost with how D3 was portrayed and delivered. Big disapointment for me.
