  • Playing this game made me feel sory for people praising Diablo 2, where everything was worse and less fun. Diablo 3 - I don't care at this point, I'm not ignorant enough to say "Diablo 3 will kill this game" before it's released etc etc etc repetitive shit without any good reason

  • why do ppl compare this cartoony looking piece of shit to diablo? even titan quest and path of exile pwn this pieces of shit and are way more comparable to diablo. and narrator please stop reading from a piece of paper and pretending that you're well-spoken.

  • @burgerkingsucks1

    He can't. He died.

    Also, it's called a script.

  • @burgerkingsucks1 Because Diablo 2 is an overrated shit. This is not. Titan Quest gets so boring after the first 10 hours that you have to uninstall it

  • @woznymaciej1988 so diablo 2 is overrated because it got great reviews and was the fastest selling pc game of its' time? id still rather play diablo 2 with its shitty decade old graphics instead of this disney cartoon kingdom hearts looking crap. everyone will forget about this crap after d3 or path of exile get released

  • @burgerkingsucks1 Hehe like if I care if it get's forgotten lol, only fanboys say "D3 will be the best" when they even don't know exactly what it's going to be like - pitiful. I don't play a game because it's popular, don't know why anyone would. I liked D2 but it gets so damn boring that I quit. Besides it is the first great hack n slash, but NOT the best.

    PS: I don;t really care about the shitty graphics, I'm not 10 any more. And the cartoonish graphics are very pleasurable

  • I was under the impression this was a side project by the Diablo team, a sort of stealth-beta of sorts to test some things for D3.

  • @skykid This was made by a company that was started by a few ex-Bliz North folks. Max and Erich Schaefer, as well as Peter Hu, and Travis Baldtree, the guy who made Fate. After the Flagship debacle, the team that was working on Mythos (the Schaefers and Baldtree) decided to pick themselves up and get a game out to get the bad taste out of their mouths. 11 months later-Torchlight came out. It's a great game. The sequel will be a LOT better, too...and the same price AND multiplayer.

  • Why is everyone saying RIP? Did this guy die or is everyone just morons?

  • @OldMusicftw No, the reviewer died :/

  • Be at peace Stephen :)

  • you sound exactly like Matt Nicholls from Bring Me the Horizon

  • Rest in piece dude.. loved ur reviews!

  • this sounds exactly like FATE

  • Crap. I love single play H&S RPG. Why? Because I generally detest people. Bring it on.

  • Awesome. this game came free with my new laptop

  • Excellent review. I was searching for informations about this game as it plays on mac too ;)

    Thanks alot, but as a non native english speaker I had a hard time understanding all you said (I got most of it fortunately).

    Anyway, I "liked" and subbed.

  • Is this guy dead? why is everyone saying rip?

  • Rest in peace :( one of my favourite reviewers :'( Wish I had found you sooner.

  • Why do the best always go first?:( this review is brilliant. RIP my friend, I am sad that I never discovered you earlier.

  • $3.74 on Steam today!

  • @HaloFilms8 YUP i just bought it

  • On-sale today on steam.  Think I will get it.

  • This is an exact copy of fate, Or maybe vice-versa

  • I do not understand how multiplayer should be more fun than singleplayer?? I hate games where other people rolling around. I love to play alone for God sake.

  • @JOTTABYTE

    Same here!

  • RIP

  • Rest in piece Stephen.

  • @TheArcCaster How do you know he died?

  • @TheArcCaster rest in piece?

  • @ARAFELI You're griping about the spelling of a wish for the departed to find peace. Well, you didn't begin your sentence fragment with a capital letter, fuckwit.

  • This was one of the best game reviews I've ever hear. Great Job. I hope you keep doing this.

  • @slashum999 He cant. He died.

  • Out of the many people reviewing games on youtube you are definately one of my favourites. The review concisely packed every important detail I needed to know about Torchlight to decide whether I wanted to get it or not, and seemed very well structured overall. Thanks.

  • @YYSZigzag Well.. he's dead now. I feel really sad. This guy died at the age of 27. what a shame

  • Very very great job at this video. I applaud you, sir.

  • alchemist ftw i have a lvl 7 alchemist on hard mode started yesterday very fun iv played before but not an alchemist and i hade quit i only have the demo becuase its not realy worth the money so i play for free

  • @mrpepermentman You only get 2 hours to play on the demo.

  • @TheDarthax i dnt play this game any more but i hade played it on steam unlimited time to play

  • @mrpepermentman oh, I might have to try it.

  • @TheDarthax cool good luck

  • this game is just like HP games .FATE

  • reinstalled it...still loving it :D

  • I'm currently giving this game a go and I'm trying to like it but it just feels like Deja Vu. Maybe it's because I played too much Diablo II and Titan Quest but I think this genre may have been done to death. I prefer the fixed world of Titan Quest rather than random samey levels which just feels fake and unsatisfying. Graphics are great though and it runs immaculately but I think I'm more looking forward to Grim Dawn than Diablo III.

  • Hyperbolic? The content of this review is fantastic but the '19yr old English literature undergraduate superlatives and metaphors rule tone' of the review is painful. Cut out the flowery hyper bollocks and I'd probably listen past the first 2 minutes.

  • Awesome review

  • sex... yeah right

  • Great review. You deserve more views and likes.

    A tip to the people. Vote on every video you watch. It helps alot for the people who make the videos.

  • @TobbzSC what are you talking about? couldnt understand him all vid, such a heavy accent...

  • @TobbzSC i agree so much, its really really helpfull and encouraging

  • i found this game really addictive but i hated the destroyer class.....boring

  • What a great freakin' review. Well done.

  • Thank you for the substantial review; I will be buying this game

    today.

  • Not gonna lie, nothing beats the Diablo series. It set the bar for this style of hack and slash. Also I clicked on this video for a review, not a 3 min intro about your thoughts about how this game is greater than any other game and your personal background of being a solo-gamer.

  • you sound like neville longbottom

  • I haven't played this game, but it looks like it copied a ton of ideas from Fate.

    The animal, the fish, the randomized dungeons, the death penalties, one town, send you animal to town to sell.

    Am I correct? Or am I just being ignorant?

  • @rupert484 Forgot to mention also the retire system is the same.

  • @rupert484 Those aspects, yes, exactly like fate. Not my type of game though. Im not into it.

  • @BeaztyAssBoosty If you don't mind me asking, if you don't enjoy these types of games, why are you watching a review of Torchlight, which almost defines the genre.  No offense, I just find it a tad odd.

  • @rupert484 Well I was looking into diablo 3 (considering the new auction system) and torchlight came up, so I thought ide check it out. I guess it would seem pretty strange lol.

  • @rupert484 Along with fame.

  • I wonder if there is a mod that lets it control like wow, my clicking finger is sore playing this game for hours and hours straight. At least a mod that puts the number of clicks reasonable.

  • If you want this game but wont buy then come to my channel and dowload full free version no viruses no surveys!

  • If you want this game but wont buy then come to my channel and dowload full free version no viruses no surveys!

  • One thing I learnt whilst doing my English degree is that language is about being understood. Why on earth are you using so many ridiculous words like "oxymoronic"? "Polymorphic properties"?

    You are trying a bit too hard and your use of language will alienate many of the viewers.

    Good review, terrible use of language.

  • I loved Torchlight. Doesn't have multiplayer though.

  • @matenzo Try a game called "battle of the immortals" it's a FREE mmorpg made by the same company :D

  • @xXfk96Xx it's not made by the same company that made torchlight dude

  • @wArWaRhalo89 It's not? because it's on their website

  • @matenzo that's why they are releasing torchlight 2 :D

  • I think this is co op on Xbox,i could be wrong,ive thought about downloading it after playing the demo.

  • I was considering buying this one day.. Steam just sped that up. XD

    $3 baby! Amazing game for $3.. I will honestly say it's the best game I've ever bought for $3.. Probably the only game I've bought for $3.

  • easy achiements for xbox360

  • good game, to bad u need money, 0/5

  • @jakuszkowiak so you call the game good and say its bad you need money for it then give it 0/5? fuck off >->

  • @sinsduden o, sorry master, i forgot im not aloud opinions. fuck off >->

  • @jakuszkowiak still, it makes no sense saying its good and then its bad you need to pay and then you give it 0/5 before even trying it

  • @sinsduden u still dont understand opinion? maybe thats my rating be4 playing? dumbass

  • @jakuszkowiak call it a preview then -.-

  • for 360 players, this game is 33% on XBLA off starting tomorrow (july 5th).

  • YOU MUST get it now in steam its only 2bucks wat r u waiting for download now or forever be lost by ur stoopidity.

  • What an annoying voice.

  • Awesome review, thanks.

  • Lol bought it for 3 bucks.....spent more on coffee today lmao!

  • $3 on steam lololololololololol

  • ITS 80% OFF ON STEAM!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*inhale*OOOOO­OOOOO!!!

  • 3$ on Steam

  • For the love of God, SPEAK UP.

  • Eating, sex and computer games, true for me, but it is pretty hard to not have a multiplayer conversation?!

  • What game is it better comparable with then Diablo 2? Does he say "Faiths"? Yes, no?

  • @FactoryClosure Having the same curiosity here... anyone?

  • OMFG.... Conversation.......SEX??? a single player experience?

  • Talk to and fuck yourself at the same time??

  • @justonia19 His username is "antisocial fatman" so that doesnt rlly suprise me xD

  • This guy is a dork.

  • in my life sex is an singleplayer experience too...

  • but please someone answer me, why on is screen the health and mana bar is on the bottom and me on my screen i have the mana on top right and hp on top left ?  is there a way to alter the screen stuff ?

  • i LOVE Torchlight. Got it a couple of days ago and it's a great dungeon crawl--makes a nice break from constantly getting the shit scared outta me by DeadSpace 2, and having my system scanned in a "non-personal" way by Vivendi's StarCraft 2. My only gripe: if you want English-sounding voice acting, hire real Limeys! The guy who sez "you have triggered a trap" sounds really phony...

  • Comment removed

  • Ive been playing an alchemist as a tank like character, I use heavy armor, Aoe spells, one handed weapons and a shield, most of my gear has life steal and damage reflect, I have maxed out the bubble ability.

    I am playing on hardcore (Perma death) for over 3 weeks and I can pull hundreds of guys and never go down below 2000 hp (2500/2000) + the damage reflect does the most damage,

  • Anyone who enjoy's this style of game, Would probably love "Din's Curse".

  • "Like every other part of my life--eating, conversations, sex, computer games are a single-player experience." That was brilliantly funny and insightful, even though a bit sad. ;)

  • @WillsTube1 Company of others is over rated brother.

  • I think you had a review for Diablo 2, where did it disappear to?

  • @MisterAAnderson You must be thinking of someone else. I haven't and won't be reviewing D2.

  • @antisocialfatman I was almost sure you reviewed it...

  • literally exactly like wild tangents Fate... except for small differences

  • Think I'll wait for diablo 3. Gotta have multiplayer sessions with my friends. That's what it's all about.

  • i applaude the joke you made at 1:43, i was momenteraly in fits of laughter

  • torchlight 2 better be mmo

  • @DenemChikn it will have co-op, not sure how big though.

  • do more reviews! i love it! thanks to youni dont have to wait for d3 all day anymore! more ppl should know abput this game. it deserve more popularity than titan quest

  • still waiting on D3, so giving this a try tonight. (WOW shutdown)

  • Just played this today for the first time, and it was fucking awesome. I actually enjoyed this more then Diablo 2 dont flame me :(

  • @dwagothegod well i agree with you D2 was great till the hacks started to take over too much in pvp..... am still waiting for DIII tho... then ill forget what "sleep" means

  • I loaded up diablo 2 the other day. been 10 years since i played it. i was going to play the expansion since i never did. BUT...

    well, it looks dated as hell. sorry, but it does.

    ...so i thought i would give torchlight a go. i tried to play it before, but it looked juvenille. I wanted to play the alchemist class since that suits my gameplay the most, but the character just looks plain stupid.

    ...anyway, I gave it another shot and i'm glad i did. great game. story sucks but who cares.

  • ...yep, just loaded up diablo 2 lod again and it just looks like crap. i don't think i can play it. good memories and all. but the low resolution alone (800x600) is a deal breaker these days. can't wait for diablo 3, but at this point I would way more recommend to someone to play torchlight over diablo 2. frankly, it just kills it. What would be really cool is if they simply took diablo 2 and updated it only slightly: diablo 2 2011. Just beef up the resolution even.

  • @1Sandwitch1 i played it before, but i uninstall it when i reach lvl 10 cuz i need to install battlefield.. theres main quest, which is based on story line. Side quest, u dont need to do this, optional. And random quest from random dude on some random dungeon

  • lol, the green blade looks like blade of athena from GoW. btw im getting this soon, hope its better than titan quest

  • Looks like Deathspank meets Dark Alliance ;D I like both, but I'm unsure if I want both together.

  • lol @ : 1:40

  • Can you play multiplayer/Online in this game=?

  • Awesome review.

  • Superb review! You had me convinced 5 minutes into it.

    Thank you kindly! =)

  • fantastic review

  • haha love the way you say money

  • is his pet named "ginger"?

  • its like a new FATE game ..

  • @nektro72 its made by the people who made FATE actually

  • hmm from a scale from 40 hours to 160 hours....how long is it? Is it more then 40 hours long or is it more, is there side quests at all? I could care less if its Multiplayer or not, since its "suppose" to be an RPG why would I want to play online? I am glad there isn't it means it'll be free after you buy it(or download it ;o) so you dont have to worry about anything.

  • lmao wow no multiplayer? strange dugeon hunter alliance on the ps3 does. that also is like a diablo type game.

  • TORCHLIGHT DOES NOT HAVE MULTIPLAYER... enough said, im not interested

  • I haven't played this game, yet, but I watched this video to help me decide, and I have to say, regardless of if I get the game or not the review was done very well! You obviously like the game, but that didn't hold you back from listing negative aspects, and this review just felt very complete and thoughtful. I also like how you showed various clips during the review instead of one continuous session, and then recorded your views after playing it so your concentration wasn't divided. Bravo!

  • This seams like fate but with better classes and a diff story.

  • some of the minds from diablo worked on this

  • I played the demo of this game on XBLA for what seemed like hours and loved it! Will be buying the full game when I have the funds (which is very soon)! :D

  • I wish this dude sounded more natural when speaking in this review.

  • its dissapointing seeing so many ppl complain about graphics get over it guys great games dont always have great graphics the legend of zelda ocarina of time half life 1 minecraft etc

  • good job they have said there making a torchlight 2 with a co-op mode of some sort

  • good thing i discovered you. ill be following your reviews from now on

  • Just bought this from the Xbox Live Marketplace. It's amazingly addictive. I actually put down Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fable (i alternate between all 3) to play this. It was only like 12 bucks! I love it. I think it's the best thing that's happened to dungeon roamers since Diablo 2... And that's saying something.

  • your life, seks, computer games.

    LIES!

  • This is Fate.

  • "Pets are the best thing in the universe ever." .... are you 10? 'Cause that's something a 10 year old would say.

  • @SpreadingInsanity Dude, they can sell items while you continue your hack and slash adventure. Great time saver.

    Troll.

  • GRAPHIC DON'T MAKE THE GAMEPLAY, GAMEPLAY DOES, HENCE THE NAME: VIDEOGAME.

  • Graphics are not all that matter in a game, it is only a fragment of what keeps players playing. And if they were bad, it would have to be quite horrible resolution for a good game play which is one of the most important things, to be canceled out....or something like that.

  • Definetleh (defiantly) communiteh (community). I really hate that northern accent. Please just make sure the next generation of children in your area learn how to pronounce "ee" "E" "Y"

  • ...Did he just say that sex is "single player"?......

  • Hey, great review. I was going to buy this game but wanted to get a glimpse at it first. Found it for only 5$ at a store near my home. Going to pick it up now, looks fun! Again, thanks for the great game review!

  • Good and enjoyable review :)

  • I dont care about multiplayer. they fuck up the game by glitching or cheating themselves by leveling cheats and ex. so yeah, fuck multiplayer rpg.

  • This guys "The Matrix" style of talking is killing me.

  • Just bought this on xbox

  • xbox has multiplayer for this game, it was just realeased on the arcade

  • @TheEXTREMEJP hang on , sorry i was wrong about that... as you were

  • i like the part when this guys talks

  • Way to break out the thesaurus.

  • nice vid, I see a lot of comments about the graphics, I dont care about it torchlight is a good game same as wow.... not the best graphics in the world but both good games, sometimes I think graphics is overrated, I did enjoy the video tyvm

  • I dont really care about multiplayer most of the time. Tbh, even in most MMORPGs I fight alone or with a pet (With henchmen/heroes if I play GW).

  • i have a 50 lvl champion w 6 yellow parts and 3 purple..its fckin awesome!

  • Boring...

  • @Nervejunktion dude do graphic really matter that much?

  • @o0bean0o

    Yeah I believe they need to be balanced with the game. The wrong type of graphics for a game is like having the wrong kind of music playing during gameplay....these things show the developer is either oblivious to what fits or more commonly ---LAZY PROGRAMMING

  • @Nervejunktion You are sorely mistaken if you think the graphics have anything to do with the quality of either game.

  • @Nervejunktion By that rationale, people would've stopped playing Diablo 2 years ago. It has a good art style, but it has ugly archaic graphics. Same with StarCraft, or Fallout, or System Shock 2.

    Graphics are a hook, but it's gameplay that keeps peiple playing games.

    Besides, Blizzard skews to the low-spec demo to maximise their playerbase. They obviously don't think graphics matter.

  • @antisocialfatman

    I still think the graphics in fallout one are awesome...hand drawn backgrounds....they seem to match the environments. Same as diablo 1 and 2...they are good graphics in my mind...perhaps a little dated today but they are good in my eyes. You are correct about gameplay being another element to make a good game.

    Perhaps an example of a game thats all about gameplay and no graphics is "dopewars"...its a fun game with no graphics...

  • @antisocialfatman Well...my friend i must remember you that minecraft its a very good game and whit very bad graphics so...your argument is invalid >:D ( zorry if my english is bad im chilean :P )

  • @antisocialfatman blizzard made torchlight? like wow blizzard?

  • @soulrisk1010 No, but a huge chunk of the Diablo team left Blizzard after Diablo 2 to work on projects like Hellgate London and Torchlight.

  • @Nervejunktion Minecraft... nuff said

  • @1337Trapper

    LOL

    So your point is that because you think minecraft is so great you've won this argument?!

    I found that game to be boring...I thought the graphics suited the game and I never thought they were bad or the wrong style. For me personally it was the gameplay in that game that turned me off..not the graphics.
