A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

You should give Path Of Exile a shot. It's very much like Diablo, but it's free to play (just pay for cosmetics).
PoE is a fantastic game but for beginners learning builds and stuff can be challenging, if you aren't afrai of guides or just want to piddle around without one for free you can really learn what the Diablo series is like.
It's been a while for me, but I never used a guide when I played. If anything, that took the fun right out of it for me, because it felt like in order to properly play the game, I first had to grind the game.
To each their own of course, but for me the most fun was when I first played the campaign and the whole story and settings /enemies was new. Playing through the campaign again and again on higher difficulties never could hold my interest for long. But I know that's the main draw for a lot of players.
