May 2025
Basically, Torchlight is the reincarnation of the original Diablo. It's made by some of the original developers, and it follows the same format of starting out in an NPC-filled town and venturing underground into the depths of a dungeon to eventually find the final boss at the bottom, upgrading your equipment and skills all the while. There are some modern sensibilities thrown in, naturally including a fishing minigame, but this is the most Diablo game since Diablo.

It’s simple, colorful, and hits that loot chasing itch just right. The combat feels punchy, the pet system is a nice touch, and it’s got that early-2000s charm that gives off big nostalgic vibes — especially if you were into Diablo II back in the day. But yeah, it does start to wear thin after a while. The dungeons start feeling samey, the builds aren’t super flexible, and the story is kinda just… there. No multiplayer either, so it’s a solo ride the whole way. Also, if you’re a loot goblin, that tiny inventory might drive you a little nuts. Still, it’s a fun, laid-back grind that doesn’t ask for much. Great for zoning out. Cute pets, solid loot, repetitive but cozy. Still worth a dive.

A mix of Diablo 1 and 2... but with many quality of life improvements AND without the need of shilling out money to a company that firmly lies in a long list of hated game companies. That's very much oversimplifying it but still.

This game has aged very well. A spiritual successor to the Diablo franchise between games 2 and 3. Solid Mechanics, easy enough to get the hang of for both new and seasoned players. I don't have anything bad to say about this title. Edit: The final boss fight is insane... Went in first at level 34 and got my ass handed to me. NGL I installed a mod to make my dude immortal so I could kill the boss and finish the story. I'm ready to move onto the second game so I was done wasting time. Still nothing bad to say about the game though.

While on modern standards Torchlight is janky it's still a decent experience. This game has such low pc requirements that you can probably play it at 120fps on a Samsung fridge.
