The announcement regarding the upcoming Diablo 3 release inflicted a terrible itch upon the Diablo fan community. Gamers all around the world have been using various RPG 'placebos' to ease their craving for the new Diablo, clicking through the time spent waiting for Diablo 3 to be finally out (which will certainly take a while).

Diablo 2 is now listed on the Amazon top ten PC games sales charts, with the expansion following close behind.

My question is:
Which of the following games will keep you company until Diablo 3 finally comes out?

@odenski-

This thread is fine, but please don't post the same thing in other people's threads hijacking the topic in question.

So can we post here or not?

Not very many options on the poll and the choices seem a bit over the place. Regardless, my vote is 'None of the above', and I'm not saying which game(s) will be my placebo. It's not like D3 will be released this year in spite of the unconfirmed rumor. The announcement was this year, and Blizzard usually takes multiple years before release. There's a far better chance at Starcraft 2 this year than D3.

I was bored and literally tried everything I could find. So far I think I might actually buy and try Loki as it and Sacred 2 are the only 'newer' ones to me.

But my list of tried is:
Sacred
Fate
Divine Divinity
Beyond Divinity
Silverfall (I heard expansion or whatever makes it better)
Dungeon Siege I & II
Throne of Darkness
Titan's Quest (I might just play this more as it is the only thing that is like D2 really)

I would have to say Diablo 2, Titan Quest, and Dungeon Siege 2

I have been playing TONS of games, nothing seems to keep me occupied for more than a month. I kinda feel depressed and I think that I may never be satisfied with a game. But on the other hand, it would be boring if I found a good game and lived happily ever after.

I have heard of Fate and Silverfall and tried the demos for both. I hope this isn't off-topic but are they good? Would you recommend them? I remember Silverfall was pretty cool, I wouldn't mind playing further, but the controls were a bit weird to me. Fate was entertaining, it was obviously a Diablo clone, but almost anyone could tell you that

I am looking forward to a few MMOFPSs coming out, Global Agenda, The Agency, Huxley and the rerelease of Face of Mankind.

Anyone know of any other good games to play while I wait for D3?

Do you think I should make a seperate topic elsewhere for this?
