Planescape: Torment is an excellent game if you like NPC interaction. You learn much of the plot through interactions with others, so it is very dialog driven. You can play it more hack and slash, but you miss a lot of the plot. It is also singleplayer only (no multiplayer), though you can have the standard 6 party members. Less NPCs available, but all of them are fleshed out thoroughly. Great (award winning) story.
I gave up on Diablo. The epitome of hack and slash, so if you like that sort of thing, then great game for you. It reminds me of a much more advanced version of that game Rogue from the 80s (your character is an @ symbol, and all of the monsters are just letters, like T for troll. Your objective was to fight your way to the bottom of the dungeon, get the item, then fight back up. Very primitive, but still fun in a hack and slash sense). I know I just dated myself by throwing that one out there! I have Icewind Dale; it was given as a gift and I have never played it. I love interaction with the NPCs too much to go back to that.
