The boy does. And I like playing it to fight Big Baddies with other people, and I like going about learning the lore and shit when I'm bored. The grinding and shit I avoid as much as I can. Which is why my characters are always poor :P

if Torchlight II has multiplayer, I guess I could feasibly enjoy it...but if I'm already doing that in WoW, what's the point of buying Torchlight?


TL2 will have multiplayer. The advantage over WoW is that you don't need 10 or 25 people to kill the big, bad monsters - just yourself, or up to 8 people with the difficulty scaling on a per-player basis.

I beat Normal-difficulty Torchlight 1 last night; the end fight was hella fun (far more so than most any WoW raid boss I've done). Also, you don't need gold in (any, really) action RPG since you can farm items off boss kills (just like WoW, but a lot easier and you get all the drops instead of rolling or DKP-ing).

Torchlight II and Diablo III. Macharius - 16/08/2011 08:48:49 PM 729 Views
Diablo III is at the top of my list. Nate - 16/08/2011 09:31:22 PM 507 Views
I've been following Diablo III, but I've never heard of Torchlight. j-whitt987 - 16/08/2011 09:45:17 PM 601 Views
Torchlight is a cheap, extremely undemanding (in terms of requirements), steampunk Diablo clone. Legolas - 18/08/2011 08:27:01 PM 566 Views

I really never saw the appeal in Diablo. Fanatic-Templar - 16/08/2011 11:45:38 PM 531 Views

Agreed. Diablo (and Torchlight) is the very definition of a repetitive grindfest. lord-of-shadow - 17/08/2011 02:35:15 PM 546 Views
Which is just fine, for what they are. Macharius - 17/08/2011 05:26:10 PM 651 Views

Yeah, the TW series is pretty weak grand strategy. Paradox does it best. *NM* Ghavrel - 17/08/2011 09:29:28 PM 201 Views
Paradox? *NM* Macharius - 18/08/2011 01:54:00 AM 203 Views
Hearts of Iron, Victoria, Europa Universalis... think RTS Civilization meets Dwarf Fortress. Ghavrel - 18/08/2011 05:45:09 AM 452 Views
That sounds magical. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 18/08/2011 01:35:09 PM 204 Views
I've always been intrigued by Europa Universalis. Macharius - 18/08/2011 01:59:52 PM 541 Views
Worth it, in my opinion. Ghavrel - 18/08/2011 05:25:09 PM 456 Views
lol now that i've looked into Torchlight.. LadyLorraine - 17/08/2011 02:04:51 AM 570 Views
YOU PLAY FIFTEEN DOLLARS A MONTH FOR THIS WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU Ghavrel - 17/08/2011 07:58:06 AM 425 Views
what? LadyLorraine - 17/08/2011 08:13:41 AM 452 Views

meh, I have plenty of other things on my to-play list LadyLorraine - 18/08/2011 06:54:33 PM 437 Views
I can't say I was really impressed by Torchlight's boss fights. Legolas - 18/08/2011 08:38:41 PM 462 Views
The first time I beat Diablo was hilarious. Fanatic-Templar - 19/08/2011 04:04:31 AM 550 Views
Diablo III's lore and atmosphere draw me, but not the bajillion clicks required. Zalis - 17/08/2011 04:07:40 AM 561 Views

I dislike this "always-online" requirement, and I don't think I'll ever buy a game that demands it. *NM* MonCul - 26/08/2011 03:53:49 AM 189 Views
Torchlight 2's final character class is a mage, it turns out. Nate - 29/08/2011 06:42:05 PM 522 Views
