    this is the definitive list.

    path of exile is most popular but has optional mtx(?)

    titan quest and Torchlight are on multiple consoles. titan quest has a sequel in production

    grim dawn is by the titan quest team, has a small file size, and runs well on older pcs.

    Does Last Epoch belong on this list too?

    Yes! As a die hard Grim Dawn fan I can say Last Epoch is awesome. Grim Dawn is still better imho, but Last Epoch comes close. Both are excellent games one could easily put 100+ hours in and have a blast.

    I just wish that I could start at a higher difficulty on Grim Dawn with the appropriate scaling. I don't want to do the campaign 3 times just like old days.

    Didn't they just change the game with the last patch (still being updated, my God the devs are GOATed) so they you can play to 100 in any difficulty? I still imagine you get pasted in elite and ultimate if that's your issue though.

    I don't know, haven't played with that feature. The campaign with expansion is long enough that it was a pain to go through it to get to endgame.

    It's a good thing that you can skip that.

    For PoE you consider 30gb installed (on PS5 mind you) a large file size? Yes it has mtx, but it is not once pushed or advertised to you, and none of it is required for anything. They does improve the QoL of the game however.

    CoD + WZ is around 240gb I think. Most modern AAA games are usually 90gb minimum.

    Path of exile charges for inventory QoL and with the ludicrous amount of different stuff that drops, it’s arguably kind of mandatory if you’re trying to complete seasonal objectives

    The MTX for PoE are within the "nice" ones. There's extra stash tabs, but you don't need to consider that until after the campaign. And then there's cosmetics. No pay to win. And the MTX are on your account, so they will be on PoE2 as well.

    How is the couch co-op for Titan Quest? My SO and I spent a ton of time on Diablo 3 together and I might consider trying that again.
