Is it a rip off? I'm sure multiple people can have the same ideas.
Vampire Survival released a few months ago, while Magic Survival was released a few years ago. They're extremely similar games.
I guess at the end it depends on what's your definition of rip off.
Is Torchlight a rip off of Diablo or do they just use similar mechanics and ideas?
- NineStarPoint 5y agoStardew Valley is unashamedly a Harvest Moon rip off. This isn’t a bad thing though, Concerned Ape took a formula that the original creators had been phoning in for years and created the best version of that formula ever made.
- bzzzt 5y agoTorchlight is made by 2 of the Diablo/Diablo 2 developers.
- indigochill 5y ago> Is Torchlight a rip off of Diablo or do they just use similar mechanics and ideas? Well, Torchlight had designers from Diablo 1 & 2 on the team as well as Diablo's composer/sound designer, so it's a bit of a special case.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoDiablo invented a genre, Torchlight, Grim Dawn, Path of Exile carry the torch (ha) further. I don't believe they ever denied Diablo's influence and inspiration on them. Is League of Legends a DotA ripoff (the mod), or is DotA (the full game) a League of Legends ripoff?
- stryan 5y agoNot your point, but League of Legends, DOTA2 (DOTA is a the trademarked, Valve name, DotA for the mod) and Heroes of NewEarth all had had people who worked on at least a version of the original DotA All Stars mod so technically they're all equally sequels or continuations. It's Heroes of the Storm and SMITE that are the rip-offs :). Or at the very least, League, DOTA2, and HoN (may it soon RIP) are all equally rip-offs of the original mods.
