    Diablo clone=bad. Fallout clone=good.

    Unless it's Fate. That was a tolerable Diablo clone.

    Because a lot of people are retarded and couldn't even tell what genre it was. Diablo plays a lot like microing a protoss templar or terran ghost, only with more abilities. Just clicking things will only get you through act I. Every supposed clone of it misses this entirely and makes progress quest with a shinier GUI.

    Mister lamat, If you read the original post again, you'll see that the interviewee did an admirable job of pissing on his own game. Don't shoot the piss-messenger!

    What always annoys me is noone is able to promote an Action RPG without dissing traditional RPGs in the process. Why can't they simply say "we are making a game that combines beat 'em up combat with RPG style character interaction and story, because we thought it migth be fun." No, it's always "Numbers = teh boring; Buttonmashing = Immershun!!1"
