Suggest an action RPG for me along the lines of Titan Quest and Diablo 2!

I need a new RPG. I've completed Diablo 2 and TQ to death and farmed all of the best items in the two games.

I'm in need of another action RPG to keep me occupied for a bit. I've also completed Dungeon Siege 2 which was great as well.

Any suggestions?
 
The Witcher is great, but neither it nor NWN are action-RPGs really... How about Dungeon Runners? It's pretty much a massively-multiplayer Diablo. Or that other one, Mythos?
 
Loki isn't bad

Whaaaat, its completely crap, seriously, its probably the worst ARPG I've ever played. Boring, repetitive empty long levels, the same enemies over and over again, simplistic-to-the-point-of-being-nonexistant plot, and the most laughable voice acting ever heard in a game so far. The graphics are pretty nice though.

BTW The Witcher isn't an ARPG, theres a lot of talking and questing and blah. Baldurs Gate 2 isn't even close to being an ARPG.

How about Icewind Dale 1 and 2, a bit old now, but still good. OOH also you'd probably like Hellgate London too.
 
well it may not be great, but you aren't exactly spoiled for choice when it comes it games similar to diablo. If you've done diablo and titan quest then thats about it. Everything else mentioned in this thread is more pure rpg than those.

ALL these games are repetitive and NONE of them have good stories (even the mighty diablo) so how you can call those negatives i don't know. The only thing its lacking is stability and a few more enemy types.
 
Divine Divinity! Really enjoyed that, although I never got to finish it. Haven't played the sequel, but it was supposed to be as good as the first.

There are loads of other ARPG games, off the top of my head, Dungeon Siege 1 and 2, Sacred, Lionheart, Silverfall, the Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance games and Untold Legends on the consoles, Hellgate London, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, going back a bit, the Icewind Dale games, Nox. All dungeon crawling action slashers very similar to Diablo in gameplay.

And IMO Loki was pretty much the worst out of all those games (except maybe Untold Legends, which was cack). I'm talking relatively anyway, it might not have a plot comparable to Planescape Torment or The Witcher but Loki's plot is even worse than Diablo and Titan Quest (which in themselves were pretty wafer-thin).

Also, Who's idea was it for all the major questgiving NPCs to either have plummy british accents or camp effeminate accents, whether they are Norse, Egyptian, Greek or Amazonian. It sucks and is rubbish.
