It's only when backtracking to earlier levels that you meet weaker level monsters, and it's incredibly, incredibly ineffective to farm XP from those lower monsters. They give you basically nothing once you're higher level. Diablo II simply has that non-linear aspect on top of it because it's fucking epic.
And no, it's not a MMORPG. It has a purely single player mode too. You're thinking of WoW. My box of D2 and the expansion pack LoD is but a few feet away from me. It's memorable to me because I still play it hehe.
I'm for sure thinking of DII, because it is the game that, after not having my own computer for several years after high school, brought me back to video gaming. I spent literally several hours per night in PC cafes in Korea playing with coworkers.
