    Best Loot Based Games

    I have The Division and Assassin’s Creed: Origins. What are some other loot based games that you guys would recommend or consider “must play”?

    I’ve tried Diablo and, though fun, I feel like games like the ones I mentioned above have more meaningful grinding.

    Borderlands 2 is older, but still holds up decently with a lot of people playing on PC. Path of Exile and Torchlight II are also good games, but they're in the Diablo vein.

      Diablo 2 for sure (worlds better than 3)

      If you're ok with single player games I'd recommend Divinity Original Sin

      I know people who really enjoy Warframe

      Tom Clancy the Division is another good on.

      A number of MMO's would also fit this category, but not sure if that's what you're looking for.

        I played Borderlands some last year. The loot aspect was great but the art style got old. As for the others, yeah they’re kind of in the same vein as Diablo so initially, I’ll have to pass.

        I’m playing the division but I’m not a HUGE fan of the online piece because it makes it so I can’t suspend my session until later. I’ve played Divinity but I don’t know that I’d classify it as a loot based game. See above thoughts on Diablo.

            I’ve got my eye on The Division 2 and Odyssey. I didn’t know I liked loot based games until I played one where the grind didn’t feel quite like a grind. Since learning some things in Origins I’m actually progressing really well in The Division 1. Just hit level 6 after saving Dr. Kendall and getting the medical wing of the base up and running.

            Yeah I’m REALLY early on. Plan to get some more in after our son goes to bed while my wife watches the Grammy’s!

              Ah sorry just assumed you had played Diablo 3 which is very different than the 2nd one.

              I'd also recommend monster hunter world.

                Oh I did play Diablo III. Your post said Diablo II, I think.

                  I played The Division three years ago when it launched and gave it a 9/10 as a solo lone wolf who ignored the Dark Zone and PvP. Will do the same with the sequel which easily looks better.

                  Not 100% sure but im guessing The Division 2 has the same setup with story missions being where you can play on normal or hard and get better loot if you play on hard where as the rest of the game itself is all based on the levels for each area. I always go level by level, area by area in terms of clearing it out and then moving on to the next level.

                  I did everything in The Division to 100% completion in 113 hours but for the majority of games, I am a single player completionist. LOL.

                  AC Origins and AC Odyssey were both great games too. Loved both of them as well. Of course, I am a Ubisoft fan(boy) so unless a game really disappoints me, they all usually hit at least an 8 on my rating score. The Division 2 will be no exception.

                      I’m digging Warframe on my Switch. Don’t know if I’m doing it right but I’m enjoying it.

                        Warframe is also getting big content updates this year, good time to get into it.

                              I’ve played that some and it’s fun for a while but the grind seems pointless. I know the grind is for better weapons etc but a game like The Division and AC makes the grinding missions have meaning.
