Great blog, thanks. Would've loved to play Torchlight 2 back half a year ago. If the time allows it i'll play it after i got bored by D3.

Very nice blog , if Diablo 3 wasn't coming out this would be my definite game of choice.


Yeah me too, but I guess Diablo 3 will make Torchlight 2 more sucessful on the long run drawing more attention to this kind of game, being like an alternative to the mainstream D3.

Personally, I am looking forward to Torchlight a lot more than D3. I played the shit out of D2 and was super stoked for its successor till they announced that you can't spend your stat points anymore, their revised skill trees and, last but certainly not least, the real money auction house. Sorry Blizz, but I'd rather have an excellent Diablo clone like Torchlight than a terrible Diablo game.


The above posts shows that you have not tried the beta then. Allowing you to use all the skills in the game is a bad thing? The game is amazing and all the D2 fans crying is getting old.


Kind of like the classic BW vs SC2?

About the game: Seems like the style is very TF2 cartoony (which is cool I guess), but I will be playing the shit out of D3 instead

here's my first line of thought reading the title of this thread:
torchlight -> flashlight -> fleshlight

I actually loved Torchlight 1. It was so so so much fun. I didn't realize they were making a Torchlight 2, but honestly, I only bought Torchlight 1 as a stand-in for my Diablo cravings. Now that D3 is out, I'm not sure if I'll ever pick up Torchlight 2. But you never know. It looks so good, love the cartoon-y feel to it. Thanks for sharing!

OP has epic skills in narrating his gaming experience. Enjoyed reading all his previous pieces of art.

Great blog for probably my fav game of 2012!! Sorry Diablo 3...

Is it really good? I feel like this is one of those games that is good but is underdeveloped and under-appreciated.

d3 isnt too cartoony its too colorful... luckily we got ppl who already made a mod that makes it "less colorful" in turn making the game a lot nicer.

torchlight is the 2nd best diablo copy. the first best was Titan Quest. i sometimes even though i prefer titan quest over diablo, but titan quest gets boring faster (approx 2 months - diablo holds for years^^).
so sad there will never be titan quest 2 most likely - but hell, i have diablo 3 now :D

so ye... i will buy torchlight 2 and probably spend 20ish hours on it, thats it.
