I want a modern version of Dungeon Siege 1/2. There really is a shortage of party based dungeon crawlers.

There are party based RPG's like Divinity or Dragon Age, but I'm less interested in character dynamics and story. I just want Diablo where you control a large party.

Currently the only options are replaying Dungeon Siege 1 + 2 (which I do) and Guild Wars 1 with a full party of heroes (which I also still play).

Diablo where you control a large party -- I tried this idea myself (using a bit of hack) and found it to be such great fun and extremely addictive. The only bad thing about it is that you can't go back to a single-player Diablo any more :-) There is a webpage that I made about 15 years ago: http://pl.postech.ac.kr/~gla/diablo.html

I still play Diablo with 8 characters occasionally. I wish there was a game like this.
