I'm in love with isometric prerendered games from the late 90's early 2000's again! (hexbear.net)

There's just something so nice about prerendered games, they look so crisp and just pop on the screen chefs-kiss This is lineage 1 a korean mmorpg I've been playing on a private server. I'm planning on downloading diablo, diablo 2, and fallout to keep scratching this itch.

I'm pretty sure they are a justified rip off. Iirc Blizzard was tasked with making proper WH and WH40K PC games when Games Workshop pulled the rug, and rather than waste assets they pivoted and molded the work into their own IPs. There's definitely Warhammer blood in both.

Kinda like how Nintendo screwing over Sony (Phillips CDi history) jump started one of their biggest rivals.

This is aside from the agreed point that generally IP protection is a fuck.
