So, this happened after Nick and I both found we were playing Torchlight at 1am:

Chris Remo (12:55:43 AM): Man Torchlight is good
Chris Remo (12:57:01 AM): It's kind of crazy how much it is just Diablo, but there are probably more Diablo veterans on this team than there are on the Diablo III team, so I think they have that right
Nick Breckon (12:59:45 AM): This team actually has enough talent to pull off the low-budget thing and make it work
Nick Breckon (1:00:03 AM): This game is to Diablo what Dungeon Runners tried to be for WoW
Chris Remo (1:00:18 AM): I get the sense Torchlight will be Diablo I to Diablo III's Diablo II
Chris Remo (1:00:23 AM): I guess we're making game analogies

(Torchlight is really good. Buy it.)
