  • IMO path of exile and titan quest are better than this if you're looking for a diablo 2-esque experience. or just wait for diablo 3 which is gona be delayed till 2015

  • Basically a PG Diablo.

    Still surprisingly fun, plays EXACTLY like Diablo 2 and probably like Diablo 3.

    Good filler until D3 finally gets here... personally while D2 is awesome I'm sick of the graphics. Torchlight's graphics aren't much better but it's a refreshing experience.

    Thumbs up from the NoobTuber.

  • does it have multiplayer ? and is it any good?

  • Love the game coming out for 360 now too with new quests, new sets/gear and a whole new smoother interface it's said if they get enough support they will release torchlight 2 with coop or possibly coop for the first torchlight. I'm a huge D2 fan and honestly to hear that a game like this with some of the developers from d1/d2 is now coming to 360 is great news because this Is definately something consoles have been lacking please show your support and dload it next month when it comes out you'l

  • i have to agree that if ure looking for blood then its Diablo 3 =)

  • dudes, i was avoiding this game for many reasons till i got to play it .ITS FUCKING AWSOMEEEEEEEEE. i MEAN ..fuck me..it rocks.......Sometimes is repetitive but still lots of fun to play. just try it.

  • Diablo for little kids :D

  • This trailer doesnt really give the game justice. I had lots of fun playing this game and I wouldn't say its Diablo for kids as there is mature effects to the game regarding blood and gore and has the same complexity to the game as Diablo has. The developers just decided to go for the cartoony artistic feel for the game.

  • This was actually made by the creators of Diablo, Mythos, and Fate. :)

  • Not playing any game related to perfect world ....

  • @xfireblasterx Missing out on a good game for a dumb reason then. PWI is just paying the bills, Runic has full creative rights. Just like Disney and Marvel.

  • this game is rly fun and the best part is that it has reaaalyy low system req..so you can play it with like 10 years old computer

  • I jus got the game and the gameplay is just amazing!

  • Man, I downloaded the trial of this and now I want to buy this game so bad, definatly worth the $20

  • Made by the original developers of Blizzard North and the music is composed by Matt Uelmen, who did the music for Diablo 1 and 2...so in a way, it is closer to the originals than Diablo 3....

  • @Szederp I knew it. I thought the guy just took Diablo 2 music and put it over the video.

  • Right !

    how can i get this game ?

    i mean if i buy it online or something can i only play it on this PC ?

    and i cant find the boxed version anywhere :S

    Help

  • atleast these guys produced something that looks surprisingly as good as D3 before D3's release... perfect world entertainment makes free games with cash shops. i give them props for making such a good looking game (even if it does look cartoony) when Blizzard entertainment has 11 million players that pay 15$ a month and still havn't released diablo 3.... There's a reason why people call Blizzard lazy. Perfect world ent. gets shit done lol

  • its like World of warcraft and diablo put together..

  • It's made by the same team that created Diablo, Mythos, and Fate. Those games combined together somewhat spawned Torchlight. Either way, it looks good, and the game is cheap. I wouldn't mind picking it up

  • Looks like Blizzard is so slow that some one choosed to nearly remake the same Gameplay and landscape places from the Game trailer of D3 haha

  • so, yeah this is Diablo for kids. That has already been stated. Now is the game fun or?

  • @asdflolffs

    Sure as hell is, but it depends on whether you like such games or not, if you're not at all into grinding or doing the same thing over and over again it might not be for you.

  • @Mig440 sometimes it can be pretty lame to do the same stuff over and over again, at least in games like Wow. However, in d2 the gameplay is different, and imo better.

    I'll much rather do the same thing for hours in d2 than in wow, if you know what I mean. As long as the environments change and theres different npc's to fight i figure it is pretty entertaining. Simple yes, yet still entertaining ( in the diablo-hack-n-slash- kind of way).

    I will try it out!

  • @Mig440 Very motivating =p

  • @Mig440 if you play 'Very hard' it's not grinding, it's surviving :) lot of fun then :)

  • @Mig440 bought it, played it, enjoyed it!

    Matt Uelmen soundtrack is a ++

  • @asdflolffs It may get people into Diablo who were once intimidated by it or just weren't interested in it.

  • It may be a kiddy clone of Diablo, but it will at least keep me satisfied until Diablo 3 comes out

  • It's just a complete RIP-OFF

    Diablo's UI

    Fate's Fishing Gameplay

    .....but better graphics ;)

  • Theres just a teeny tiny difference between WoW and this. WoW sucks, and this well... compared to WoW is beastly.

  • very nice interface good game

  • Well this is compatible with Mac for Steam so I wanna know.... is this a fun game?

  • @FruschendrixFan01 This game is LOTS of fun. And the steam achievements are a fun addition if youre into that.

  • search on it on gamespot before you comment!

    ...gamespot rated it 8/10 and 2000 people rating 8.5/10 so yea the game is NOT fucking bad!

  • looks more like Fate...

  • The makers of torchlight and Diablo are one in the same...

  • cartoon diablo 3 with guns.. i shouldnt say that. d3 is gonna be epic

  • diablo with cartoonish graphics?

  • IMO this is a cheap version of diablo 3 mixed with fable 2

  • .Considering it was made by the original creators of Diablo 2.....

  • Looks very similar to Diablo 3, however it looks like it might be better in some ways - less focus on "cool" graphics - maybe more focus on good gameplay and charecter development. i give it 4/5 for now.

  • It looks like Disney Diablo 3. Not a thumbs down, just a characterization of what I'm looking at. Where's Uncle Donald? :)

  • Well a characterization with a bias then... some may call it WoW style or perhaps wannabe D3 style or something, but it has it's own style in a way... it isn't huge and hulking like WoW, which I think is great.

    Torchlight is an indie game and should be measured according to that.

  • @Mig440 stupidest thing ive read in a while... Where the FUCK is the wow reseblence?

  • @Rovepz The WoW "resemblance" if you will is primarily in the overall graphics style of the game, i.e. cartoon style.

  • @Mig440 ermm.... are u fucking retarded? It is not wow graphics, its not even the same engine. Its like saying that avatar and fucking dexters labratory is the same fucking graphics

  • @Rovepz QFT

  • @Mig440 wow is not the owner of cartoon graphics....

  • @Mig440 they could both be called "Cartoonish" but they certainly don't look similar. Thats like saying a bird looks like an airplane because they both fly. WoW and torchlight have very distinct visual flavors.

  • @Ididsubmititalready same maker

  • @Ididsubmititalready

    Whoa! that was sure a great joke! you should become a clown!

  • I buyed the game on Steam. The game is very good in the start i think i was at the computer 7 hours aday. But then after 1 mounth the game starts to get boring and you're doing the same thing over and over.

  • true word. ths is one of the best game i have ever played.

  • Why cartoonie? :( why...

  • @Ididsubmititalready  carton is much easiyer to make than realistic.... ps they dont have artistic talent i guess

  • idk if it's easier or not. I'm just kind'a tired of goofy games I guess. Goofy has been around for like 10 years now. idk why dungeons are cute, cuddlie, cartoonie, etc. /blah it's not right man.

  • Why do you have to dumb it down?

    It's not Diablo 3, never will be, but it has it's own merits.

    Besides, it has an astounding modding community going on, so it sure will surprise in the end I think.

  • It coss less to product.. This game is 20% and I got it on steam for 5$ with 75% reduction.

    If it would be realistic it would probly be 50$..

  • i downloaded this game in 30 min on thepiratebay xD, this game is really worth its money xD!

  • How can you say it's worth the money if you didn't pay for it?

  • haha that was the joke xD

  • @mr931126 me too

  • heh kiddy version of diablo

  • made by some of the directors who made D1 and D2

  • @InfestedHydralisk aka diablo 3

  • @Brandon5l9 Diablo doesn't support kids, so it's not really Diablo 3.

  • @InfestedHydralisk Diablo 3 looks pretty kiddish to me

  • @Brandon5l9 Diablo 3 is not even close at looking cartoonish.

  • @InfestedHydralisk your kidding right? it looks like WoW with a hack n slash patch. compare it to the earlier games.

  • @InfestedHydralisk heh real version of diablo 3 with kiddie craphics ***

  • @InfestedHydralisk no really...

    Do you even have an idea how the games are made? try doing something better...

    so sick of stupid people like you.

    Try doing something better b4 u mock someone else's work...fucking tard

  • @LuciferIScute Cool story bro, but this is obviously copied (or heavily inspired) by the Diablo series. And changed into a version for kids. So really, what does this have to do with my knowledge of 'how games are made'? Seriously, you have no idea what you are talking about.

  • do u need to pay every 30 days like wow?

  • No, it's a one time buy :)

    19,99$

  • lol

  • does matt uleman composed this song? i heard about it... and it's sounds so similar to diablo music

  • He truely did ;)

  • 4 yuros on Steam for the next 23 hours.

    I think I'll get this and few others.

  • Buying this game because I like Diablo style dungeon crawlers. Plus I hear it works good on netbooks so I plan to get it for my steam account and see how it runs on my acer aspire one * o *

  • my friend gifted me this game on steam, and i've been playing it ever since! 5* :D

  • @pkr487 hey do you know how to turn you camera this really bothers me :o

  • The Ex-Diablo Team made it.

    So , It is good!!!!!

  • This game is not so god is just an advance from FEAR ! so is copy or the same empresa bueno se cuidan perros !!! Fear ese es el jeugo copiado

  • It's 10bucks on steam for this week-end so go and buy it ! Really great game to wait until D3 comes out.

  • Yeah this game is really really good. Just try it out and check out there Editor. Heck if you like it enough hope for an Online version attached to the single player version like diablo two. As in easy to insane difficulty selection.

  • is this game worth?

  • Very much worth it !

    It's fun and addicting and just plainly awesome.

  • actuall i think its awsome its basically diablo but without story and with comic graphics

  • *yawn*

    Yet more pretty 3D slashing with zero tactics, thinking or real surprises. I guess it's what your lazy average US gamer wants. Sad, really.

  • US doesn't play RPGs very much at all, and this is Brit-made. We're more hungry for shooters.

  • I don't recall Seattle as being in Britain ... XD

  • Really? Maybe I'm confusing it and Fable?

  • You probably are. Runic Games is working from down-town Seattle in the US and none of them are British.

  • boring....

  • This Will keep me satisfied till D3.

  • Is there any RPG where I am the bad person?! I mean i am little tired of "So many good heros.." i wont some where i am same .. erm.. dark mage and wont to destroy world...

    Please Replay

  • Play the game called "Overlord" and its sequel.

  • Thx bro, but.. "Bin there done that".. :) Even the "Overlord 2"

  • If you want you could try out the OLD strategy game Dungeon Keeper 1 and 2.

    It's good to be evil!

  • Fable (and 2 and 3 when it comes out) and Titan Quest. I didn't like Fable very much but Titan Quest and Dark Throne were absolutely fucking mind-blowing.

  • Nahhhh, TQ was fun but not mind blowing. IMMORTAL throne did a lot to extend the storyline though.

    I found TQ a little underwhelming, they could have made the cities a little bigger. I mean, Athens had like 3 buildings in it for fucks sake.

  • Yeah, I was really tired when I typed that, sorry.

  • You dont have to apologise LOL.

  • not many games are actually english/british made but when they are they seem to be pretty good

  • yes, check out the game called DARK AGE ORIGINS . you can be evil/good/neutral and complete the game.

  • that background song is sooooo d2 act1

  • Looks like a fun game similar to Diablo 3 to tide me over until Diablo 3 is released.

  • the graphics are fine but damn why its based on diablo 3 gameplay even skills of the character are the same

  • Who cares?? If you were extremely antipating diablo 3 like i am, you'd buy it wouldn't you!? that's what this really is, a kind of filling gap until diablo 3 unearths from the ground! BE HAPPY THAT PEOPLE DO THIS! peopel didn't get bugged so much about clone games in the 80's why do we all care so much now! IT'S A GAAAAAAAAAAAAME, enjoy it dude :)

  • mini diablo 3 :) the game is great really

  • Looks like a cheap version of Diablo 3

  • yeeaah.. why dont you just say crysis looks like doom, fable looks like crash bandicoot, WAR looks like WoW .. etc etc

  • no i mean, go look at the diablo 3 gameplay, it looks extremely familiar.

  • he moves like the trolls on wow when he stands still

  • this is gona be good on my new 9600gt

  • Has anyone played the hardest difficulty yet? I started today and normal isn't challenging what so ever.

  • Quite many people have on the forums, so you can go and check that out.

    It should be quite a challenge on Very Hard.

  • hey is torchlight out already right

  • i played it on hardcore today and its... kinda hardcore^^ nothing for people that just look for casual fun :D

  • it's kinda cartoonish

  • man i dnt no wat to gt. shod i gt dis or windows XP 2 gt mabinogi cos i havnt playd mabinogi in years but they bof look cool wat shod i gt plz hlp

  • Now slowly and in English...

  • looks like FATE

  • Looks affordable and I think my older desktop could handle running it. My curiosity is piqued :) !

  • Diablo III Kore - GOOGLE IT

  • just got the game, TOTALLY AWESOME!

  • I would be interested in buying it too but it seems like another WoW type game.

  • nah, wow and this are WAAAAYYYYYY different.

  • A lot more like Diablo

  • is this game worth buying?

  • Very much worth it!

    I have the game and it's a good casual game or hardcore if you so want.

    It all depends on what you want. If you want online play, this will probably not be your kind of game, since it's only single-player.

    However there will be an MMO set in the same universe as the SP in about 1½ year or so.

  • Even though the skill tree seems a bit limited at first, I like the fact that only certain skills work best with certain classes. I thought that only having 3 characters to play as would be rather shallow, but it (mostly) works out in the end. I do feel, though, that the game could do with one more character; they should have brought back the necromancer, or a class with necro-like skills and weapons!

  • That's were the modifiability of the game comes in. In fact there is already a mod designed to do exactly as you say: Creating a Necromancer Class.

    Head over to the official forum and you will find it ;)

  • Thank you!

  • So many ignorant comments here!

    Torchlight is a great game, and an excellent tribute to the Diablo legacy. I'm a huge Diablo fanboy, and even I can accept the fact that this game definitely fits the bill. Hell, it might even do more for the Diablo name than Diablo 3 will. The developers were right in saying that it nails the formula PERFECTLY.

    I got over the visual style in the first 5 minutes of play, and now I actually really like it. For 20 bucks, this game can't be beat.

  • if it's like diablo, does it have a multiplayer capability?

  • it is like diablo, alot like diablo actually it even has the diablo dificulties and the "die once, die forever" thingy. but it doesnt have any kind of multiplayer.. and that sucks alot.. not even lan.. i liked it but i wouldnt buy for that..

  • is this an rpgmmo game? or like diablo?

  • go blizzard north! just put online mode and gamers we're gonna destroy blizzard forever

  • diablo 3 knock off lol, its good to play while waiting for it to come out i geuss haha

  • Just finished the demo and OH MY GOD it is good...gonna buy the game now

  • Hell, I'm playing it as well. In normal it's pretty easy until you get to Lvl 20 ... then mysteriously the difficulty increases ...

  • i think its good that they made a game that kinda looks like diablo cuz diablo was funny but its too old now.

  • what the fuck

    creatures world and magic is the same just like diablo 3 is going to be what is going on?

  • It's just the new game from the people that worked on the original D1 and D2. It's actually quite fun. I've played it myself and I find it very entertaining. Good game to be gaming while waiting for SC2 and D3 ;)

    It's only 20 bucks anyway!

  • pussy

  • the only difference I see between Diablo 3 and this is the oversizing and caricature fo the characters

  • i dont think you have SEEN diablo 3 then.

  • hahaha so wanna be diablo 3

  • fucking stupid... its the same DEVs that worked on Diablo that worked on this game. It's not a "WANNA BE" its a completely different game but same type. action RPG. so stop with the Wanna BE comments all you fucking morons.

  • Cell-shaded graphics are making quite a comback!

  • Those are diablo 3 skills!!!!!!!!!!!! and yea lol

  • they made diablo 2 also

  • im playing this game im allready level 20

    im a destroyer

  • Seriously havent enjoyed a game this much since D2 came out. This is pretty epic tbh.

  • Fable 2 graphic engine you can run it with Geforce 2

  • This is made by THE PEOPLE WHO INVENTED DIABLO AND DIABLO 2.

  • the people from diablo made a game called Mythos or something not this.

  • Sigh. Mythic made mythos. Mythic disbanded. The people who made Mythos joined to form a new company with the two people (The Schaefer bros) who co founded Blizzard North and co-created Diablo. Therefore this is the direct product of the creators of both Diablo and Mythos. You fail :)

    Also, the game is excellent.

  • nope

  • Blizzard North made Diablo 1 & 2, NOT these guys. A few people who used to be a part of Blizzard North DID work on this game, which is why it looks so diablo-esque. Torchlight is NOT "made by the people who invented Diablo and Diablo 2". If anything, it's another mediocre ARPG made to feel like Diablo in order to cash in on the fans who are bored waiting for the release of Diablo 3.

  • Well the original minds of Diablo 1 & 2 , were Max and Erich Schaefer, so what you say doesn't hold water or is coherent, since you say that some of them did, but you do not say who actually made this game, heck.. you probably haven't tried it even.

  • It doesn't matter which members of Blizzard North worked on Torchlight. I was only saying that it was not "made by the people that made Diablo 1 and 2". In order for that to be correct, it must be made by the same team. A few people do not count for the entire team.

    Stop being so defensive. I didn't make any attacks against the game itself. I've played chunks of it, and have enjoyed myself doing so. "Mediocre" doesn't mean "bad". It's just nothing amazing.

  • Yeah, sorry dude but this is wrong whether or not you like Torchlight. Max and Erich Schaefer founded Blizzard North and created Diablo, they then left to create Torchlight. Surely that means Torchlight is created by the same people who created Diablo 1 and 2? It's also a really good game which can be enjoyed any almost everyone, except perhaps the dyed-in-the-wool narrow minded Diablo fanatics who are afraid of change and feel protective of the Diablo brand without understanding its heritage.

  • Also, it's worth noting that creating and producing a title are two different things. Toby Gard created Lara Croft for example, but I doubt he made the first Tomb Raider game by himself.

  • hey idiot! have you checked wiki!

    "Diablo composer and sound designer Matt Uelmen also joined the team..."

    "Max Schaefer and Erich Schaefer, co-designers of Diablo and Diablo II, joined by the team that developed Mythos"

    (Mythos was also created by the exodus employees of bliz north)

    Adam Biessener stated that "the soul of Diablo hasn't been so ably captured in years,"[29] and The Escapist's John Funk wrote "Torchlight absolutely nails the formula that made Diablo so addictive."

  • blizzard is a rip off company ... f**k them ...

  • blizzard made diablo 2...

  • If by Blizzard you mean Blizzard North then yes, but the actual people who made Diablo 2 left Blizzard and started up this company after their previous company Flagship Studios disbanded.

    Max and Erich Schaefer were the original minds behind Diablo 2 and they've also made this game.

    Hope that clears things up a bit.

  • Nothing like WoW.. Ur blind?

  • Looks like a Disney version of Diablo.

  • its really annoying to see these comments on every gameplay of a hack n slash saying its a diablo rip off or diablo clone.... diablo 2 (in my opinoin) was the greatest hack n slash ever made so ofcourse theres going to be alot of clones because diablo wrote the description of a hack n slash so every company is going to make there hack n slash the same... theres not much room to do things different in a hack n slash

  • Is from the makers of Fate, the best game ever, looks almost exactly like fate. and OMG I LOVE FATE!!!!

  • Looks like diablo 3, but still, diablo 3's graphics are much better. When diablo 3 & starcraft 2 come out I'm going to buy it !!

  • So quick question when it is released will the single player be F2P or is that only when then MMO version is released?
