Five Things 'Torchlight' Does Better Than 'Diablo 2'

MTV Multiplayer writes:

"If you're a fan of 'Diablo,' you were no doubt crushed by the news that the next installment is still more than a year away. But, incredibly, a game has arrived that does a pretty excellent job at filling the action RPG hole left in your life. That game is 'Torchlight,' and for $20 it's one of the best deals you can find on the PC today.

If you're skeptical that a "budget" game could outdo Blizzard's warhorse, 'Diablo 2,' here are five things that Runic Games managed to improve on...and five things that I better see in 'Diablo 3.'"

I just finished Torchlight yesterday. It's a really good game, especially at that price.

All I want is a physical disc release of remastered D2 that doesn't require online check-ins.

Ah, more and fast - the antithesis of careful and good

I've lost complete interest. Too much FOMO with seasons as it is, now it's expansions? No thanks.

Michiel198950d ago

what fomo? everything gets reset each season and you start new characters unless you're playing on the regular servers and then you're already maxxed anway and just need to participate in the new season stuff.

i played only during launch and i found the ones in that battlepass to be absolute dogwater, the only ones that looked somewhat cool were the paid ones in the store and i wont bother with either. The game itself was just so hollow, there were no cool builds cause every synergy was just "x or y skills does more dmg or has this extra effect" almost no experimentation needed, couldnt give a rats ass about armor if the core of the game is boring af.

Boo! Thought this was eventually a patch for diablo2 on PS5. The fact that they can’t get that game to run in quality mode at 60fps is an absolute joke!
