    Didn’t they do that years ago when the Diablo 1 and 2 devs formed their own studio and made Torchlight 1 and 2? And then went under because the games didn’t sell enough and the IP got sold to some shady company who made it into a weird, half assed MMO?

        TL1 is pretty simple compared to 2, kinda like how Diablo 1 feels compared to 2: one town, one dungeon with 4 different themes after a number of levels (can’t remember if 5 or 10). Hell, that one of the heroes of TL1 became the big bad of TL2 is another nod to Diablo 1-2
