The award-winning action RPG is back, bigger and better than ever! Torchlight II takes you back into the quirky, fast-paced world of bloodthirsty monsters, bountiful treasures, and sinister secrets - and, once again, the fate of the world is in your hands! Torchlight II captures all the flavor and excitement of the original game - while expanding the world and adding the features players wanted most, including online and LAN co-op multiplayer. Torchlight II is fast, fun, and filled to the brim with action and loot. Adventure solo or online with your friends!
Multi-player – Featuring drop-in drop-out co-op play. A free matchmaking peer-to-peer service lets you make new friends and create friend lists. At any time, choose online multi-player, LAN play, or single-player. You can take your same character online/offline and across PC/Mac/Linux play.
Customizable Characters – Players will create and customize a character from one of four classes available and choose an animal companion. Through cosmetic, class, and gender choices, skill path decisions, and the treasures they acquire, each character will be custom-tailored to each player’s tastes.
Individual Loot Drops – Loot ninja’ing is a thing of the past! Every player sees their own loot drops onscreen. Loot drops are not class specific since all classes can equip all in-game items, provided the required stats are met. Items can also be traded between players.
Pets – Look for all new pets in Torchlight 2, the wolf, panther, domestic cat, hawk, chakawary, bulldog, and the papillon. Players will choose a pet to accompany them. Pets can level up along with the player, and will help in battle, learn spells, carry items, and perform a variety of support services. They can also be sent back to town to sell unwanted items, and even return with potions and scrolls!
Randomized Overworld and Dungeons – Explore randomly generated dungeons within the game at any time for extra experience and rare loot. The Overworld areas of vast snowy morasses, desert wastes, and highland plains are also randomly generated. Players will encounter weather, day and night cycles, random quest givers, and random events, creating hours of non-storyline specific adventuring.
So much improvement since the first one. We have moved from the cramped and identical underground corridors to the vast surface. Different regions, different weather! Much more prominant music! No final boss that keeps summoning adds!
Although there are still some annoyances. Like knockback. Or teleporting - seriously everyone and their mother can teleport! Also, some maps might feel a bit too big.
But those are minor nitpicks, honestly. Torchlight 2 deserves a solid 4, maybe even 4.5, when you don't run into those particular things.
Hands down the best of Torchlight. Most of my time Is played on steam however I found out about GOG and like the drm-free practice so naturally I had to repurchase and just love this game as my favorite ARPG.
Very boring casual game where you click mouse to get rid of amorphous ugly creatures that are trying to bite you. Sometimes you fight bosses by circling and shooting. And you have to manage boring items in inventory. If you like modern mobile games you might enjoy it.
Graphical style is not disgusting and is well crafted but there's nothing attractive in it.
Here's a game that is - in very many aspects - a clone of Diablo, and is not ashamed of it. The gameplay is the same, and most of the core mechanics (randomized world, loot, town portals, socketed items, cooperative multiplayer) are nearly identical. The only real differences I see are in the world design, the player classes, and a generally "lighter" art direction than its gore-heavy progenitor.
Fortunately, if you like this kind of thing, this game nails the sweet spot pretty well. Combat and loot are satisfying, the pace of the game is consistent, the different classes have some interesting abilities, and the boss fights are more complex than just "stand there and shoot it a lot". I imagine gameplay is even better when playing with friends on co-op, but unfortunately I didn't get the chance to try that. The hardware requirements are basically trivial on any modern system, so if you have an older computer lying around, there's a good chance it can run this game for multiplayer.
My only real criticisms with the game are the limited selection of character classes (only 4), and the fact that the systems don't quite have the same depth as Diablo in terms of weapon and armor customization and some of the more "obtuse" things like transmutation and rune words. But that's fine, nobody said the game has to have that stuff. The core gameplay loop is polished and fun and that's the obvious focus here. For just a few dollars here on GoG, this game is absolutely worth the money.
