Is this an ARPG Diablo clone?
Looks like it. Is it? All the others were 3rd person character action games.

Not a clone man, the gameplay and combat system is combo oriented, just like every darksiders, it's not like diablo in the sense that you spam a free basic ability skill, and then time your special skills and spells that have a cooldown, you combo buttons and use some skills like the other games. Also, there is no loot in the game, so loot grinding as well. It might sound obvious but it's EXACTLY like every other Darksiders game, except for the camera.

Many people who have given reviews said that they were reminded more of previous Darksiders games than Diablo. So no, this is not the clone of Diablo.

Darksiders 2 with Death was much closer to Diablo Clone loot system. (haven't tried the third one yet)
Or Shadow of Mordor/War.

Kinda, yeah. It certainly did solidify the formula that's become known as ARPGs since then. It did, however, heavily borrow from other games, including obscure ones. It was certainly the first to tie it all together.

Well, I'd argue that Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 are still rather different beasts as well. Modern ARPGs are more like Diablo 2 than Diablo 1, I'd argue. So there was still a gap and lots of progression between the two installments - and plenty of other studios experimenting with the recipe from Diablo 1.

Edit: Whoops, did the post I was replying to just evaporate?

Had it bought a long time ago, but I like my soulsborne games. How is it compared to like Hellblade?

No, once and for all - this is not like Diablo, Path of Exile or Grim Dawn. Only reference would be isometric view, that's it. There's no loot, no grinding. It's about 15 hours long campaign. You basically just go through map hacking n slashing through enemies for fun. That's what this game is about.

Yeah we know. Though there could be grinding, as you still have it in Devil May Cry for souls to unlock stuff, like in here for passives and "items" tab.

Oh well then you will prob enjoy it at least somewhat.

(just heads up no horse and moves burn the entire meter after 1 use making the meter pointless)
At least Souls games have a lot of unique weapons and Armors.. DS3 did not...
