I recently re evaluated my choice to buy this game and I'm having a blast, I found the game far more generous than PoE 2 (though I like the poe graphics more)
I had no idea this was coming, but it's a remaster of all four games. Support for widescreen resolutions, full controller support, and integration of the later game features in the original (you can choose from different races in FATE, for example). Playing it on my steam deck and it's running great so far.
If you aren't familiar, it was Travis Baldtree's ARPG before he worked on Torchlight. You can recognize some of the concepts there like utility pets. It also has a cool loop that you "retire" your character to pass on bonuses to your new character - increased fame and being able to hand down an item that gets upgraded every time you do so.
I'm not saying it beats out Last Epoch or Grim Dawn, but it's a solid old-school dungeon romp.
Too bad that current gen games are all grind fests focused around loot and profit.
oddly enough I think the closest recent game that gives a similar feel to this is the borderlands series. there's plenty of differences, and it's much faster paced, but gives me the closest feelings
