Torchlight Action RPG by ex Blizzard North

!

Such a total lack of RPGs that I replayed BGII for a third time, started BGI+TotSC+BGII mod called 'Baldur's Gate Trilogy' & have put quite a few hours in Pahncrd's Oblivion Enhanced Edition RC1 as well...

...and then we get Borderlands, Torchlight and Dragon Age: Origins all within a week or two!

Heard it was quite easy so stuck it on 'Hard' for the first play through - still finding it quite easy as alchemist half in Minion skills half in Arcane tree. Only got to level 17 before doing massive amounts of BL co-op with friends all weekend.

Hopefully the multiplayer mod will be awesome, can't wait!
 
Thought the demo was pretty good, might buy it but I still have a lot of games to finish and dragons age is just round the corner.

One of the guys from runic games talks about the game on the idle thumbs podcast, if anyones interested its the october 27 podcast http://www.idlethumbs.net/

1 week in release and a basic multiplayer feature has been modded even without the mod tools released , looks like the mods for this will be impressive :)
Click to expand...

The mod tools are ment to be excellent you can ever create your own particle effects etc, if some modders get into it there should be some cool stuff that comes out of it. Someone will make diablo with it I bet :)
 
Started my game on very hard, regretting i didnt start on hardcore.

So easy :\

Very very rarely drink a health pot.
 
I got a pink item and a gold/yellow item last night and can't use either :(

Be nice if they introduced a network mode (I notice they have a loot share chest in the town already)
 
Quite annoying I just wasted like 5 odd stat points on Magic on my Destroyer and they never counted, guessing because I am supposed to focus on Strength etc. Will I get these points back eventually when I level up so far? :)
 
I needed my actual stat to go up so I could equip a helmet though. Will it increase later or have I just wasted them?
 
Will what increase later? points in magic will give a bonus to the amount of elemental damage you do throughout the game. so if you have an axe that does 15-20 Ice damage it might do say 19-27 with 15 points in magic or something like that.
 
I think he is suggesting that upon level up he clicked the button for magic 5 times and it didn't increase the stat.
 
Can't wait till my Borderlands addiction is over, need to get addicted to this asap! Got to level 17 in a few hours on Sunday while everyone was working (damn students...)

Brill game!
 
I found an item dup to make money, get on unidentify item, hold shift, then drag and indentify scroll from the npc that sells them, drop it on the item, item duped can repeat as often as you like.

Edit .... It also gives the item different stats each time.
