If you've ever played Diablo, or any Diablo-like games, you know what you're going to get. You go through multiple levels of enemies, occasionally fight a boss, and collect loot. The strength of the game doesn't lie in the story, but in the gameplay. If you enjoy these types of games, you'll enjoy Torchlight.
It's one of the greatest games ever made, there's not a single reason why you wouldn't play it. The controls might be a little clunky at first, but by the time you get off the first level you're going to get used to them.
