Devilian: Diablo 3 Inspired MORPG
Posted 6 December 2012 by EllyI was alerted to this on our Facebook page by Hyowon Choi who came across an RPG under development at Korean games company Ginno Games. Their site is in Korean as you’d expect and even employing a translator not too much can be gleaned from it. However the artwork and videos leave you in little doubt the lines between inspiration and replication can at times blur.

- Not Diablo

- Azma who?
-
- Devilian
-
- Definitely not a Soulstone
The hack ‘n’ slash MMORPG has been in development since 2009 and is went into beta testing at the end of November but will only be available in Korea. From the videos it looks nicely paced with some interesting environments but I could see a few eyebrows being raised at Blizzard with the above bosses. There are a couple of videos after the break showing gameplay with some familiar looking and sounding skills.
wha? This looks interesting actually…..I want to try it out, there wont be an english version?! :O
They seem to have realized a keyboard has more than 4 action keys
I was constantly hoping for some items to drop but none seem to do. Not sure that is a big disadvantage compared to D3 
Anyone speak Korean? I want to try the game out.
Looks like what I wished d3 would be like!
Sadly it won’t show up in the west anytime soon or ever after blizz bury them in lawyers for making a better game with a fraction of the time…
This actually looks better than D3
Looks the same as the other korean d3 clones trash, won’t last past CBT.
Diablo was the first game to have demons, crab bosses, and crystals.
it looks like someone took TL2′s mod tools and made a D3 total conversion. Resulting in a weird fusion of the art styles.
The graphics are quite impressive.
Copy or not their “Azmodan” looks way better than blizzards and even the combat looks better especially that chain/whip.
