Hello there! I had a discussion with a friend about isometric ARPGs, the usual comparisons to Diablo 2 and whatnot and he remembered playing something but couldn't remember the name. Thought you fine folk could help us out!
Here are the clues:
- Isometric perspective
- 2D/2.5D (Think he meant it was sprite-based)
- You were able to throw axes
- Its starting setting was you helping your mother feed the pigs on a farm, then everything is set on fire.
- Suspects that the game's title was a person's name.

Hope this goes well!
