Darkstone

A criminally underrated Diablo-Clone from the PS1 era. I say this, as I played the PS1 version, unaware that the PC version was different. For that reason, I haven't sunk too much time into this version. It's still just as good - if not probably better - but my nostalgia is wrapped up in the PS1 version. If anyone is really looking to scratch the Diablo itch with just a little bit of jank, but a lot of fun options...

Never got to finish this in the PS1 era, but good lord I wish this game had controller support. Though the instant loads definitely make up for it.

Before you buy it, you should know it is a Diablo 1 clone that is more difficult than it should be due to shoddy mechanics that don't seem fully implemented. Some of those mechanics being a Food meter that makes no sense because it seems to play by its own rules, hits will usually register but once in a great while your hits miss quite a lot, the "9-12 damage" system isn't that consistent and you have to play around...
