If SFV hadn't been Literally Street Fighter it would have been dead and forgotten within a month. It was real bad. (I haven't kept up with it, so I can't speak for how it is now.)

You know that borderlands actually predates diablo 3 by several years? Destiny has pretty much self-developed their loot system from the ground up and division was basically just a mishmash of industry standard stuff by the time it was made afaik. never played outriders, can't speak to that. Really those are all self-developed in basically every significant way and there's very little to tie back to a specific game as the origin.

Ironically for how little the game persisted, dungeon siege was a pretty outsized influence on where arpg/looter itemization went in the early 2000s and then borderlands probably did the next turning of the wheel. Torchlight also bridged some stuff, though idk how much anyone would acknowledge torchlight influencing their game design lol

Dungeon Siege is one of the games in this genre I have never played and I don't know what came from it. What was influential about its itemization?

Saw it before it got hidden

Basically some unknown group bought the source code for 100k worth of crypto

To what?
