I could play this purely through side-eye. Sure, I was slightly inconvenienced not being able to hold Shift to send inventory items between menus, but that was hardly the biggest deal. I'm wondering if just doing this alone was enough to break the spell.
TORCHLIGHT II CLASSES FREE
Left hand was free to fiddle with these here magnets, thank you. Skill on Mouse 2, swap skills on the middle button, and then I set up scroll to roll through all available skills - I mean, when does anyone actually ever zoom in on these games except for screenshots? I put my and the pet's inventories onto buttons 4 and 5, and turned sideways to my desk to put my feet up. Turns out in TL2 the second column is for modifiers, and I'm glad I'm not alone in having not noticed.) Move/Attack on Mouse 1, obviously. Force of habit from three decades of gaming, leaving the original controls in the first column, putting my errant alts in the alt field. Because I, and lots of other people, were trying to map said controls in the second column in the options. (Aside: I, and it seems from searching, a lot of other people thought it wasn't possible to map lots of actions to the mouse. Perhaps my first mistake was figuring out a way to map everything to my mouse. The only thing I changed were the double-spaces after full-stops because I have some standards. If I were reading this, I'd think I was making some of that up, so banal and generic is it in its delivery of Fantasy Speak (TM). if not from the Alchemist, then from the Netherim." Seek the Vaults, and convince the Sphinx to grand you entry. The Guardian of Mana has pursued the Alchemist into the Forsaken Vaults, which are guarded by the Sphinx. Yes, the Alchemist has already come to the Ossean Wastes, and has allied himself with the vile Ezrohir, presumably to aid their impending attack on Zeryphesh. And I wasn't really motivated to follow the inter-mission intermissions either, with dialogue as eye-glazingly unreadable as the following:
TORCHLIGHT II CLASSES SERIES
I'm not wholly shocked that there hasn't been a Netflix series based on the concept. People are sending you, whoever you are, off on missions to do something to stop the Alchemist from doing something else. There's something about an Alchemist, something about some bad thing he did at the end of Torchlight I (like anyone finished Torchlight I), and then it just starts. I'd love to interject here to detail what Torchlight II is about, but honestly, despite having watched the introduction twice I couldn't tell you a single thing about it. And I'm left wondering: am I just playing them wrong? Taking out purple-level bosses I hadn't really noticed I was fighting. But this time out, I found myself often barely paying any attention at all, and doing just fine. I can't imagine a way they could be all-consuming, considering how little there actually is to be doing at any one time.
I've always played action-RPGs while doing something else. As much as I expected to gently sink back into a nice few days clicking through this 2012 game, it's felt a bit like a slightly annoying chore to do in the background while I finally get around to watching Mr Robot. And I've found myself feeling an enormous distance from them. Is this heresy? It feels a bit like heresy. At the time of its release, I confidently declared TL2 to be the better game, and yet one seems like it's still the dominant title in the field, and the other like a retro feature idea despite having most recently been released three months ago.Īnd my conclusion? Having replayed both a bunch in the last month, I still prefer Torchlight over Diablo! But, um, well, I'm not sure how much I actually like either.
TORCHLIGHT II CLASSES PS4
A wondering that probably reveals a damning lot, since Torchlight II was actually re-released for Switch, PS4 and XB1 in September this year, and I didn't even notice. With Diablo III continuing to be so popular, the same game finding a new audience and fresh buzz seven years on with its Switch release last year, I wondered if Torchlight II could do the same.
I feel like I'm having a sort of ARPG existential crisis. Past Perfect is a retrospective column in which we look back into gaming history to see whether old favourites are still worth playing today.
