The "There is nothing new under the sun" argument. Interesting. Carry on.

1) the differences between AH and TL are more significant than the similarities. 2) the similarities between AH and TL are due to the fact that both games borrow from similar sources 3) Runic is being hypocritical when they raise such a stink about AH I won't comment as whether these arguments are valid or reasonable. I do wonder why they haven't answered the second and (to my mind) more serious charge: the wholesale pilfering of sound files, many of which have the same names as the TL original. Not sure if Runic will respond to this (they might not see the point). Still, I guess it's a good thing that the developers of AH have put out their own take on this debacle.

Now I'm not sure I'm reading this right but from what I'm seeing
Runic: "You stole our art!" EGLS: "We totally wrote the code ourselves!" Or hmm, for the sake of having fun... Bank: "You stole our money!" Robber: "I paid for that getaway car fair and square!"

Is it just me or do many of those 'similar' talents seem not similar at all.
Case in point: #11. One is a bomb that shoots blades, where the other is a flying dagger. It appears all they are saying is 'Not EVERYTHING was inspired by/stolen from TL' and more interestingly 'Look at TL, they did the same as we did.'

Also...can Runic be accused of "stealing" from Diablo 2...when the heads of Runic were the heads of Blizzard North, and the designers of Diablo 2?

Runic is accusing EGLS of stealing their assets (in game development, that means maps, models, animations, textures, audio, etc) where the entire response from EGLS seems based around design and game engine / code differences, nothing about the assets themselves, beyond "here's 5 random monsters from TL that don't look like these 5 random monsters from AHO"

I wasnt going after the statement and I have to commend the detail of the OP.
I just found the comparison to Torchlight to what came before it interesting.
