I really see your point about D&D 4th ed being perfect for video game conversion but I would point out that all the iterations of D&D fit into that category.
​
I think an accusation that has been leveled at 4th edition a lot is that it is a WoWification of D&D. Having never played either WoW or 4th ed. I don't know if this is a fair statement or even if it really constitutes a criticism even if it is true.

Re: Diablo eats whatever he wants for breakfast, 'cause that's how he rolls.
It was the first (I think?) game to incorporate randomly generated level design every time you re-load the game.
​
Pshaw, Diablo is nothing but a fancy GUI for Rogue .

I think Planescape Torment is on a par at least, but it is a lot shorter and more linear.

Re: Take a Gander
I know this thread has been dormant for a while but I just wanted to link to RPGMP3: Dungeon ON! which has a huge collection of recorded play sessions from a wide selection of different systems, some campaigns have ~80 hours of material.
​
I also wanted to thank PaulK for mentioning RPoL, I've been having some fun in a few games there.

TTFN,

Re: Champions Online is now F2P
That's interesting. I had been thinking about giving the new DC Universe online a go, but maybe I should try this first instead.
