Well you do defeat the big bad at the end. The fate of that NPC doesn't constitute a cliffhanger for me.

More importantly: all features were done. Personally I don't really care about the story in ARPGs anyway.

Grim Dawn was completed before the devs started releasing DLC. Last Epoch, apparently, still has severe bugs and unfinished content.

Additionally 2 of 3 DLCs in Grim Dawn are more akin to olden timey expansions rather than modern cash-grab DLC.

Meh, I think it's severely held back on account of being an MMO. Like most MMOs it's 99% facade and 1% substance. What little character development there was got toned down over time to the point where the only real choice left is the subclass selection. And while it's cool that you have different storylines, they are extremely railroady.

But of course it's cool that the game is still around, I guess I just don't like MMOs.

Loki is another ARPG. Titan Quest is definitely the better game, but in Loki you actually get to choose the god you are associated with.

I don't know what we are doing, but anon listed recent games ¯_(ツ)_/¯

(Although it irritates me to no end when people say "Baldurs Gate" while talking about BG3)

NWN1 was from Bioware, NWN2 from Obsidian. Both are from the USA, but NWN2 is nearly 20 years old by now.
