Path of Exile is the best ARPG of all time in my opinion. It's got the best loot and the most impressive gameplay. But I've got to say, Diablo 1 was groundbreaking for its time, and Diablo 2 was a blast in its day. Diablo 3 was a letdown, and Diablo 4 has been a disappointment. These are just my opinions, but hey, that's my take!

Warhammer Inquisitor
Warhammer Inquisitor falls somewhere between a B and C for me. It's an adequate ARPG, but it didn't leave a lasting impression.
Diablo 1
Diablo 1 was groundbreaking in its time, and for that, I'd rate it an A. However, by today's standards, it wouldn't receive the same score.
Diablo 2
Diablo 2 was easily an S-tier game during its time. However, with the advancements in modern RPGs, its appeal has diminished.
Diablo 3
Diablo 3 falls somewhere in the B category for me. It has some strong points, but there are aspects that I didn't enjoy, especially with the set items.
Diablo 4
Diablo 4's current state makes it hard for me to judge. Its last patch was enjoyable, but it's still a work in progress.
Grim Dawn
I have mixed feelings about Grim Dawn. While I appreciate its concepts and systems, the gameplay itself didn't resonate with me.
Path of Exile
Path of Exile is, in my opinion, an easy S-tier. Its impact on the ARPG genre without direct competition is incredible.
Minecraft Dungeons
Minecraft Dungeons didn't quite hit the mark for me. While it's a decent game, it wasn't something I'd personally enjoy playing.
Torchlight
Torchlight, while not a bad game, didn't leave a lasting impact on me. It's an average ARPG suitable for casual players.
Dungeon Siege
Dungeon Siege was a game that I found enjoyable, but its gameplay is quite clunky and didn't stand the test of time.
Titan Quest
Titan Quest didn't resonate with me as much as some other games did. While I appreciated its existence, I wouldn't consider it a top-tier ARPG.
Nox
What a game Nox was! It was fantastic for its time and brought a lot of excitement. It's an easy A-tier.
