[WSIB] Dungeon crawler without roguelike elements (permadeath) for PC

[PC]

I'm trying to find the typical RPG-dungeon crawler with procedural maps but all I can find is roguelikes, that I hate, or too difficult ones... I'm a poor skilled player and I am looking for something more akin to Dark Cloud series.

I've tried Reccetear (that has some kind of permadeath), One More Dungeon (permadeath), and Legend of Grimrock (I liked it, but is more exploration and less loot and action).

If you're OK with isometric games then the Torchlight, Diablo, or The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing series might be what you are looking for. They all seem to be pretty well liked.

I have played all of them. Precisely, I was thinking on returning to Torchlight 2.

You can always try Grim Dawn. It is really good.

I second this. Currently have 20 hours clocked. I can't stop playing.

Bought it one month before the Humble Monthly, so I ended up with 2 copies. I gave one of them to a friend and had fun playing together until the part where you explore the left side of the map.

I tried to go on alone but, the problem with hack and slash is that, once you try coop, single player becomes boring...

what about Titan Quest? it's quite fun and the difficulty ramps up only after Act3 i think.

Path of Exile is free to play. You can always give that a shot and see if you like it.
