The build possibilities are endless and the loot never stops coming. All in all a very underrated game.

Just an all around fun time killer. Easy to fire up and make progress. If you are of Diablo style top down RPG action then this game is for you. There are some differences which does keep the game fun an entertaining throughout.

В игре нет никакого баланса. Слишком легко я бы сказал, потому что зелья можно постоянно использовать без никаких так скажем "побочек". Если ты умер - ничего страшного, заплати голду и возродись рядом с локацией босса, а его здоровье даже не восстановится и останется на том уровне, где и был. Теперь что сказать про скиллы классов - полный дисбаланс. Некоторые скиллы абсурдно слабые, некоторые настолько имбалансные, что если их не прокачать - игру вы не пройдете. Сюжет такой себе. Ещё почему-то мне никто не подсказал, что спеллам можно обучать и питомца. Либо я такой дурак, что понял это только к концу игры, но это ни чуть не помешало мне с легкостью пройти игру. Я думал финальный босс будет сложнее, а его паттерны атак было запомнить куда легче, чем выучить жалкий стишок начального класса. Сам Алхимик, главный злодей, показался самым интересным и сложным боссом, как по мне. Я от него много отхватил.

I like how the clothing and armor you equip shows up on your character, the weapons are really cool and the story form what little I have played is quite entertaining.

A fun, open world, third person shooter. It carries on from the original "Torchlight" seamlessly and has many of the same perks! Get it!!!

This game is a game. it's very game-ish, and the gameplay is gameplay that gameplay should be like. it has buttons you push to do things, like move your character. and you can create your own character. that's part of the gameplay.

I found this game more appealing than Diablo 3 even before I lost respect for Blizzard. Very fun, and the vibrant mod scene is lovely.

Torchlight 2 is a good diablo 2 "clone" at its core, but with more features. I never played the first torchlight myself, so I cant really say how well it holds up against that. But its a fun and addictive hack n slash for sure!

for a 10 year old game it is still pretty fun, satisfying and relaxing (at times).
was easy to run back in the day and still is, could run it on a potato no problem.

mod support gives it almost unlimited re-playability

my personal all time favorite :)

This is a game i can just run around on for hours. I can start a new character or mess around on my old one. The colors and the story are fun and I love this game so much.

Such a fun game. Tons of cool loot and spells. Very fun when you get so powerful that you smash Mobs into giblets! Highly suggested

An absolute gem of a game, Torchlight II is perhaps one of the most overlooked games of the hack and slash genre ever.

Pros
-great abilities
-great assortment of loot
-20hr campaign (exotic dungeons add more hours)
-Multiple enchantment options (socket, natural, and purchased)
-exotic endgame dungeons dont need online services
-great weapon types

Cons
-after you finish the story it gets very stingy with decent loot (even with 20% loot bonuses)
-random instadeaths out of nowhere
-more health and mana potions then you can shake a stick at
-mana pool is not big enough and scales incredibly slowly
-some bosses abilities are op af and others are spongey as hell

In summation its a great game but it can be held back at times by some setbacks but is otherwise a great game

Outstanding game. Deserves more recognition than it gets. Incredibly re-playable. The visual design is so clear and captivating, especially the backgrounds of the levels. Great achievements to pursue for those that like that. Classes are interesting enough and with varied skills to merit playing through on more than once. Hopefully the franchise is revived down the road.

Hey look! Its a pretty decent game inspired by Diablo II, and at a very good price at that.

Torchlight II is a good ARPG (action role playing game) where you level, you loot, and you love it or leave it. You'll spend time doing quests that dont really matter, picking up a bunch of gear with minimal upgrades and mostly uninteresting qualities, and fighting a TON of monsters. That's where the game's bread and butter are made

Classes are pretty fun! They aren't insanely complex, the builds are easy to make, easy to plan, and very annoying to optimize. The visuals are colorful and vibrant and fit well with the overall art direction. Sound is nice too. The whole production is fairly decent especially for a game this old and at this price.

Combat is alright. Lots of crowd control, big criticals, and great screen shaking smashes. The beginning is a touch rough, but you'l be out of the woods quick and off to the races. Once you get going, though, not much changes and its just tweaks and optimizations as you grind up the damage curve.

Speaking of grind, this game has none until endgame. You'll finish the story, unlock the post game maps, and VOILA welcome to item hell. Truth be told, its alright but only just. Not a lot to see or do once you kill the last big bad, but there is enough between the start and the finish that i just cant complain.

How's multiplayer? It works. Maybe. I played this last during the pandemic and it ran fine, but other reviewers say otherwise. Mobs don't scale well with MP on, and even playing on Hard is not really enough. Also, the difficulty do nothing outside of number manipulation, so don't expect rewards for playing on hard.

Bottom line: Torchlight II is good/maybe great. It has flaws, its old but gold, and at this price should already be sold. Go buy it, play it and enjoy what it has.

DrkMatr1984

Pros: Addictive game play. Wide variety of items to collect. The game is long enough to be worth your money but not long enough to get bored playing it, which is good. Supports mods, and Steam has an excellent modder community for this game in their Workshop. Supports online play. Graphics are good and so are the sound

Cons: Story line is not very good or engaging. I felt like with just a little more effort story-wise it could have rivaled Diablo III. Without it, it feels like a somewhat cheap diablo-clone, despite all the pros.

Score 7/10

But seriously, buy it and check out the mods :) It really is worth the bargain price you can get this game for these days.

Wonderfully fun.

This game is what Diablo II should have been - I've made it through the first run through and I never felt as if I was completely under-powered versus the content, nor did it feel like I had made a bad class choice with my first toon. Loot from playing was enough to afford necessary potions for progression and even splurge on random gear every once in a while.

In contrast to Diablo II, with Torchlight II I've never been stuck in town unable to afford a healing potion causing me to completely lose interest in playing.

The only things I would caution anyone about is the game content is enough to get you leveled about halfway to maximum level the first time through, after which you can repeat the same content at a higher level and/or choose to participate in some custom maps. Also, spending spec points on your character when you level is unforgiving - you can only roll back your last 3 choices, making it fairly pointless to respec. Learned spells are supposed to be available to all classes, yet I found more than a few I wanted to use and learned but couldn't cast with no explanation why.

Definitely worth the price

I've played this for less than 3 hours so far and I can already tell you it's superior to Diablo 3 in every perceivable way. Diablo 3 wishes it was Torchlight 2.
I'm pretty sure this is going to be my main game for a long while. 100/10

Torchlight II is fine but not great. It's much bigger in scope than the original game but has lost a lot of the magic along the way. I've played it twice now on PC and once on console and while I enjoy it well enough from moment to moment, I never walk away feeling great about the experience.

If I could describe it at all, I would say that it's addictive but not necessarily fun. The story and characters are a complete afterthought, the art style is lacking, and the driving force behind the experience becomes fighting monsters, getting loot and seeing the numbers get bigger.

In the end, I can at least say that there was an attempt to make a good game. Let the Torchlight series end here, pretend that III and Infinite do not exist, do yourself a favor.

I just really enjoyed this style of game as it is when I first played. I'm playing through it again with at least the engineer... I wish the move command was a seperate button from the attack commaned though.

Action Role-Playing Game

While Torchlight 1 is outdated and can't hold up due to a nonexistent story, this one has a story to follow but took all creativity out of the player's hands.

I played the Destroyer in T1, your classic marauder warrior, thing is I did play him as a ranged DPS with multiple layers, instead of the big sword swinging tank he was advertised as and it was a successful playstyle.

Here I go for the Berserker which seems to be the equivalent.
I play for a bit, enjoy the changes, try out weapons and finally get used to a shotgun.
I check my skills to start theorycrafting a build, and over half of my skills are non-functional for ranged play, and even then while I could run some ranged or some 2-handed action even in melee, all of those options would be sub-par to a dual-wielding "edgelord-furry" which the """Berserker""" seems to be.

So it's a nice game to get started with ARPGs if you're not used to the complexity of the other games on the market, and I'm not even asking for the ass-backwards meta-building of Path of Exile here, just that I could make my character have its own variety outside of the flavor-prison the devs have made them to be.

I like this game a lot. The universe is kind of lacking and doesn't have the story-driven charm that Diablo does, but it's cool and you get to shoot guns at ghosts sometimes which is neat. It also will run on phenomenally low system requirements-- I'm currently running it on a Chromebook that I installed Linux on, so like... respect.

I am a 52 year old father, probably one of the oldest people playing. I am a single father to my son, who is now 14. My son recently started playing and in less than a week, he had already played for over 20 hours. This was terrible for me because it was already hard enough for me to spend time with my son, as he is always out with his friends or just watching videos on Youtube. So I decided to make a Steam account and get this game to see if I could maybe play alongside him. I loaded into the game and started playing but I was stuck on what you where supposed to do. I asked my son for help, and together we spent hours playing . I loved it as it was the best time I had spent with my son since my wife had died. Steam has ever since brought me and my son closer again, and now we actually spend time together outside the house as well. reminded me that there's fun to be had in everything, and it has brought both my son and I many happy memories.

It's like diablo but with warcraft graphics

Overall solid game. Biggest complaint is that multiplayer xp isn't shared evenly, the one with less kills gets more xp which is weird.

I played about halfway through, didn't finish because got too busy to play and not really into these kinds of games anymore, but I still recommend because I can tell it's good from when I used to play these types.

Combat is fun and smooth, push buttons, things die. I don't really know what I'm doing yet but I'm enjoying it so far.

It's a descent Diablo 2 clone but inferior in many areas.

Pros:
* Look and feel is imho good and holds up even in 2022.
* Classes are interesting and each has it's flavor and playstyle
* Most skills are ok but some are lacking
* A few ways to build each of the classes
Cons:
*Itemization is pretty poor
*Class locked uniques are a big design mistake
*Useless unique items feel even worse
*After finishing game with 4 each class there is very little to do
*Mapworks despite it's intention to be an endgame activity is boring and very repetitive
*Both mapworks and NG+ stop making any sense once you hit level 100
*Not getting legendaries after 100+ hours is just annoying.
*GOLD DROP WITHOUT MODS IS ABYSMAL X_X

All in all. There is a good 100-200hours of fun here if you can stomach the design pitfalls.
I guess in this day and age when we are attacked by the likes of Diablo Immortal crap this actually feels like a nice game.

I've tried to get into this multiple times over the years, and I find myself dropping it after 1-2 hours each time.

I can't quite put my finger on why, especially since my last attempt was just 1 hour, but: builds usually come down to dumping all your points into a handful of skills (many are useless, and there's little synergy between them); the combat is spammy and repetitive (especially Elite enemies); the world feels wooden and empty; and comparing inventory items and selling them with your pet is both eye-straining and tedious.

I should also note that I tried playing with friends before as well, and it didn't really add to the experience. My contribution to combat felt pointless, because everything was a giant, incomprehensible mess of spamming flashy attacks, and I couldn't tell what the heck was going on. So I don't think the friend factor is why I don't like it.

Maybe I just had my fill of the formula after Torchlight 1, which I sank 24 hours into, but I really just feel lukewarm over Torchlight II. I can't recommend it.

— you're welcome.

TL2 was/is the last bonafide Torchlight game, and the last of the greatest generation of truly-classic ARPGs. This game, Diablo II and Grim Dawn make up the holy trifecta of the genre.

PoE, Last Epoch, TL3, Diablo 3/4/..., and all the other current and future (dumpster-fire) wannabes out there are simply not even in the same league.

For $6 bucks on sale, I guess? There is no depth to this game though. Compared to any other game in this genre... That's where this game lost me. You literally get 2 skills that you have to alter with TAB. It's absolutely stupid, but, at $5 per skill, I'd say my buy-price fits the script. No clue how this has 90% positive reviews, unless this was their starter to the genre and also bought on sale. To whoever bought this at full price - I am sorry - I'll apologize for the devs since PoE(F2P) makes this look ridiculous. Go play that and enjoy a real game. Sincerely, a random guy on steam reviews.

- Slow movement with large maps
- Very little item stats outside of the core stats (health, base stats, resistances) and even then in very small amounts.
- Enemies have knockback way, way too often
- Even for an ARPG the questline is bad. Too many blatant "I'll let you pass if you do X, Y and Z for me" moments in the main questline. There's also two almost identical, fairly lengthy secondary quests for seemingly no reason.
- The status effects you apply on enemies barely seem to do anything, except...
- Armor reduction on hit seems to have way too much effect on your damage, especially as a stat that can only be on your weapon. When I realized that in late game and equipped a gem on my weapon, my damage skyrocketed, almost multiplied by 10.
- On top of the aforementioned knockbacks a lot of enemy designs (shotgun attacks, special attacks' windup almost identical to regular attacks, small enemies in large amounts having a large damage range potentially leading in sudden very high damage burst) make it MUCH MORE punishing to play melee.

Very disappointed in my experience after enjoying my time with the first Torchlight game.

Edited: after some more hours into the game, I updated my review:
The game is really attentive to detail, where each areas give a unique vibes. The design of the enemy is also very interesting. The down side is that the story line is really not that captivating.

Original review:
This game has the Diablo II's vibe. Here is my comment after playing for 12 hours:
pros: very easy to play. Very nice inventory organization. Items are split into potions, scrolls, and weapons/trinkets tabs. Skills are synergized well, at least for my two-hand-gun class.
cons: lack a clear story line to attract my attention, all I did was just click click click and read some bubble text from NPCs. Lack of complex but rewarding mechanisms to maximize characters' potential. Instead of easy to play, hard to master, this game is more of easy to play, bland to master.
Overall comment: a good alternative for Diablo 2, perfect to kill your time. Not so good to intrigue yourself. Not an ideal game if you wish to submerge yourself into some fantasy world with a good storyline.

I play this game with my son on casual, and we have a blast. The game isn't super complicated, but it is deep enough to continue being fun. I figure if we play through it with all the character types it will be well worth what we paid. Haven't tried multiplayer yet, or even any of the harder difficulties, but it seems like I may be buying a few more copies to play on LAN.

So if you're on the fence about buying this game, I would say go for it. Dumber ways to spend >10$ out there

It's a fun game but I prefer the simplicity of the first game to be totally honest. This game is very busy and I've noticed loot isn't really that great either. I do recommend that game, especially if you've played the first one to death.

this games incredible. pick this up seriously. this games is definitely leaps and bounds much better than torchlight 3 and the better game overall. and you will get a lot of content out of it!! its a must game.

Easy, when the industry makes shitty ideas, and cash grabs, just go back to what may be considered classics (10 years old this year ffs.) and enjoy it numerous times what you paid for once.

I would not recommend purchasing Torchlight 2 at time of review (or beyond) due to how the title is being handled by Runic. Specific issues I have:

    • I tried playing co-op with a buddy but neither of us were able to successfully create and log in to a Runic account. In other words, online multiplayer is completely non-functional since Runic requires an account for online play. From what I read in other reviews, we aren't the only ones who have had serious issues with the co-op functionality.
    • This was released on consoles in 2019, and yet they have never bothered add controller support to the PC version of the game.
    • The console versions released with additional pet types and color variants which have also not been made available on PC.
    • On top of the new pets/colors, each platform (except PC of course) also has an exclusive pet to inspire fomo and milk a few extra sales out their sources of revenuevalued customers.
    • According to the Steam update history, this hasn't been patched since 2017 which is ~2 years prior to the console re-release. This would suggest that either they did not find and resolve a single bug that existed in the PC build while porting to three new platforms, or they did and chose not to go to the trouble of fixing it for us suckers that already bought the game. It probably isn't unreasonable to guess at which of those is more likely given a) the missing controller support/pets and b) the poor technical state of all versions of the game.

In my opinion, Torchlight 2 on PC is now abandonware and explicitly inferior to versions sold on other platforms for the same price.

-Good game, very re-playable and has very good mod support.
-Combat is fun, interesting, simplistic and chaotic
-very easy to understand progression system and is generally a great pick up and play game and is also a good marathon game.
-Lots to discover and build varieties are plentiful, with experimentation being encouraged
-Music personally is lacking,, but the ambient tracks are great in certain contexts
-Doesn't shove a million systems in your face

Fantastic ARPG that has aged extremely well, and the variety the game offers can keep a fan of this genre hooked.

One of the greatest ARPG's Ever made.
Forget number 3. Or anything else they make.
They will never make a better game than this.

The first one was great. This is even better. Plus it has some of the best modded content in any RPG you will play.
Take it from me, I have played ARPG's for 22 years. This is one of the best ones to get.
Even better with friends.
A MUST OWN if you love ARPG's.

One of the Best ARPGs around. It's more easy-going than most ARPGs, but still a ton of fun.

A must play for any fan of the genre.

Base game alone is worth the price, it has about as much content as Diablo 3 with expansion and more depth, but add in mods like Synergies, and you get more endgame than a lot of ARPGs on the market, so many unique classes, pets galore, and so much more, and thats from one free mod and there are so many more, ALSO, it says for macOS you can't run it as its a 32bit game, this is false, I am on the latest mac update and run it flawlessly, its tagged wrong.

After all these years Torchlight II still delivers as a positive experience.

I would recommend however, that you install several quality of life & content mods to enhance your gameplay experience significantly. The base game is good, but the mods available raise it to a great level. Mods that I'm currently using in my latest playthrough are:

Synergies Mod
Essentials Mod
Synergies & Essentials Patch
Synergies High Loot
Extra Chunky
Zoomy
Storm Texture Pack v2.4 (parts 1 & 2)

With that mod set, you no longer have to restart with a New Game+ after your first playthrough. There's enough content to keep going for many hours. And in fact, it isn't recommended to start a NG+, since Synergies isn't intended for it.

A sidenote: do a little research after installing the mods to understand the correct mod load order, before starting a new character. It'll protect against headaches and restarts later.

A very straight-forward, Diablo style game

This is the best hack and slash experience I've had so far since Diablo 2. However, the playable classes are way too limited without mods though. Still a solid 8/10 I would say.

Vintage chocolate chip cookies

Ingredients
150g salted butter, softened
80g light brown muscovado sugar
80g granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
225g plain flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
¼ tsp salt
200g plain chocolate chips or chunks
Method
STEP 1
Heat the oven to 190C/fan170C/gas 5 and line two baking sheets with non-stick baking paper.

STEP 2
Put 150g softened salted butter, 80g light brown muscovado sugar and 80g granulated sugar into a bowl and beat until creamy.

STEP 3
Beat in 2 tsp vanilla extract and 1 large egg.

STEP 4

STEP 5
Add 200g plain chocolate chips or chunks and stir well.

STEP 6
Use a teaspoon to make small scoops of the mixture, spacing them well apart on the baking trays. This mixture should make about 30 cookies.

Bake for 8–10 mins until they are light brown on the edges and still slightly soft in the centre if you press them.

STEP 8
Leave on the tray for a couple of mins to set and then lift onto a cooling rack.

RECIPE TIPS
FREEZING THE BISCUITS
If you’ve frozen the biscuits, take them out and arrange them on a lined baking sheet. Once defrosted, pop them in a medium oven 190C/170 fan/gas mark 5 and heat for 2-3 mins to crisp up. Don’t leave them too long or they’ll dry out.
STORING DOUGH
You can keep the uncooked dough in a sealed container in the fridge for up to two weeks. Simply take some out, dollop on a lined baking tray and allow to come up to room temperature for 5 mins before baking
