The Torchlight 2 thread

Torchlight 2 - Runic Games

  • Refined, which is stellar because the first game was pretty fucking crisp like Santana Champagne.

  • Still modable like the first game.

  • Still has pets, and if they’re anything like the first game they’ll be the awesomest awesome pets that ever awesomed.

  • ONLINE, CO-OP MULTIPLAYER! :wow: Anyone who played the original knows this was the only thing it was really missing.

  • I suspect Dr. B traded the formula to Runic Games somehow.

EDIT - Modded thread title on request, though honestly I haven’t bought or played the game so don’t count on me for updates. Making a new thread may be in order.

Saw this yesterday. Psyched to see the multiplayer option. I know they are developing an MMO too, I wonder if this sequel was origionaly planned or if they need more money for other projects?

3

We’ll probably get the MMO before D3 comes out. Blizzard has been pissing me off, I always supported them in the past but didn’t buy SC2 because of all the bs, especially region lock.

Get hype.

4

Definitely getting this when it’s out. First game needed multiplayer badly.

5

Torchlight 2? Fuck yes.

6

My cousin told me about this and I’ve been really wanting to sink my teeth into some fun diablo like action. Is it good?

7

w00000rd, i got like 100 hours in the first one lol get hype haha

I’m pretty late to the Torchlight bandwagon, but I enjoyed what I played of the first one. Probably just wait and see if I can grab this one for 5 bucks on a random Steam sale too though, lol.

Of course my computer barely runs the first one, so we’ll see if I can even get a new computer sometime in my life.

I was kinda late too, but I enjoyed Torchlight and was happy when I read the news about the sequel yesterday.

10

I bought Torchlight at the full 20 dollar price. Never regretted it.

11

So this game is pretty bomb. Any tips on what to do with the Alchemist?

12

I will definitely check this out, I hope the next game has more character classes though.

13

Laser beam! (I forget the name, but you can see it’s a laser beam)

TORCHLIGHT 2

If I remember correctly, upgrading weapons and equipment was pretty damn broken in the first one.

14

Also, can you respec? That’s the only thing that stopped me from playing Diablo 2 more; if I messed up, everything was stuck messed up (having to level the same class multiple times to try different things was a huge drag too).

15

Finally, a Diablo like RPG with no monthly payments. The MMO said it won’t have online payments either, but it’s a different game than this one. I gotta see where they’re going with the whole series before I make a purchase.

16

Not by default, but the beauty of Torchlight is that you can add shit like this via mods!

For instance, here’s a mod that adds Respec Potions to a vendor in town: Respec Mod - Torchlight Insider Forums

B for Believe
B for Believable
B for Believability
The B in Dr. B is all things good.

Meh, Torchlight was fun for about the first 3 hours… haven’t touched it since. Very, very bland game, also throwing legendary items in my face every 4 seconds with no challenge ain’t doing it for me. Lacks soul.

18

Respec potions? that is fucking godlike. That means I’m gonna have a lot of fun with this game.

FlameAngelZ: Diablo 2 threw a bunch of shit at you or you could do silly stuff like “set players _” and get more names on your weapons than a phone book has smiths. I played the other game they made that you can find on the HP computers “Fate”: FATE Free Game Download - HP Games. Its pretty fun, you customize your character to be what you want it to be; the game doesn’t have any classes.

19

I don’t see the point of your post… I never said anything about weapon names. And no, D2 didn’t throw shit at you. Also D2 is like a decade old. Torchlight 2 will be compared to Diablo 3, which will blow T2 out of the water.

Diablo 3 is still gonna blow it out of the water, but I’ll look up Torchlight 2 later.
