Well, Diablo 3 is pretty simplified. Itemization is mostly through item sets and you are primarily focused on damage, which the game conveniently calculates for you. You don't really have to learn too much to play. But it is pretty fast pace and fun.

I always liked how flexible the itemization is in Grim Dawn. The fact that everything is sockable allows for a ton of choices in gear, since you can round out lower tier gear with them. There is also much more of a focus on defensive stats as well, since resists are huge in the game, so you have to balance damage and defense creating interesting item decisions. Plus the two character trees add a lot of different build opportunities. Weaknesses are that it is a slower game with slow level up times, so people tend to get bored with it. It is probably the slowest of the mainstream ARPGs
