Anyone who claims D3 is better than TL2 is insane.

It's only after you play TL2 you realize what a humongous fail D3 is.

Sadly, however, these poor misguided fools are as misguided as they are poor. They are also foolish. They are poor, misguided, and foolish because only a poor misguided fool who is foolishly misguided would be poor enough to consider Torchlight II anywhere near Diablo III in terms of asskickingness. I swear by the blank check in my shirt pocket that I will defend Activision's beautifully made game against all criticism, because there is one simple truth that you need to understand.

Diablo III is blatantly better than Torchlight II.

Yes, sometimes the entire game goes down for maintenance and you can't play it offline, but let me present you with this little morsel of a concept -- you can't use a toilet when a janitor is fixing it, can you? No, didn't think so. Let the janitors fix your toilets, and let Blizzard fix your Diablo III. LOGIC!


Yanno... sometimes... just sometimes.... Jim Derpling is fucking hilarious. And for the right reasons too. Not the "I'm an idiot, laugh at me" reasons Laughing


i think he was being sarcastic the entire article...
it's either that or he is an idiot.
Quote:

Consider Activision your friendly neighborhood bouncer, turning away the underdressed and underfunded while allowing only the cream of society to cross the velvet rope. By making players wait in a glorified paddock for three days, the impatient and angry will also go away to play something else, meaning that potential troublemakers effectively remove themselves from the equation. This leads to a better gaming atmosphere, free from ne'er-do-wells and rich in intelligent, committed players.

Compare this to Torchlight II, where basically anybody will be allowed to play. Who knows what kind of riff raff will stroll through the door while Runic sleeps at its post? Drug addicts? Coldblooded killers such as Toby Soprano from television's Dexter? Illegal immigrants? I'm sorry, but there's a reason why airports have metal detectors and a man paid to stick his hand up the anus of foreign-looking people. It's called FREEDOM FRIES, guys. Ever heard of it?

Lol, talk about misreading and misunderstanting
I've read your sentence

"And for the right reasons too. Not the "I'm an idiot, laugh at me" reasons "

as

"And for the right reasons too. The "I'm an idiot, laugh at me" reasons "

So i was under the wrong impression you thought of the article as a serious one. Razz

Btw, in a rush I've bought torchlight from RunicGames, thinking it was steam reedemable. After I've realized it i also realized i've absolutely no time to play it since GW2 is currently eating all my free time. Oh, well it's only 15 €...

Some nuggets of gold in that article

"Seriously, have you seen screenshots of Torchlight II? It's like the Teletubbies shat all over a box of Candy Corn and shoved it up a Care Bear's ass"

Laughed by ass of at this.

Now back to playing Torchlight 2

Is veteran supposed to be very easy or is it just the first area? I like a challenge, but I don't want to start elite if it's frustrating. Veteran seems a bit too easy though.

SIGH. It's a great game this far, but the first thing that popped into my mind when starting to play. "THIS FEELS JUST LIKE DIABLO" No wonder they extended the release date when they copied all things Diablo. Controls, the feel, everything. It feels much more smooth than Diablo, and the cartoonish gfx suits it, but it is Diablo 3 at it's core.


Lol what why?! Hoooow?! I Am Disappoint Are You Serious Reaction Mind Is Full Of Fuck lol wut

I know you already got you doze of abuse, but come on, this is too god damn funny Twisted Evil

I don't think diablo 3 and tl2 is that much alike, yes same genre, but obviously different in many ways.

Playing outlander in elite, only lvl 9, died only once because of being too lazy to send the pet to buy potions. It´s kind of challenging but I have the feeling it´ll get easier as stated before...:S

Is there any reason why my mage prefers being a warrior to being a mage which i chose? Doing vastly more damage by hitting enemies, and hardly come upon a situation where that is fatal to do.

I'm not a fan of the genre but I've given the ISOdemo a go yesterday night and I found the game extremely addictive, with much more variety/stuff to do if compared to T1.

The story is still nonexistent but I guess it's a trademark of all the aRPGs Razz. I did a huge mistake though, I started the game on normal and it's so easy that the game basically plays itself (lvl9 at the moment). Damn. Laughing

If you want to crash the game in a really spectacular way the command "allitems" might be worth trying. Very Happy
(Well actually it won't crash as it resumes once it has finished loading all those thousands of items to spawn but good luck getting more than single digit framerates from that area ever again, pretty impressive how everything you do on the map seems to persist.)

I was under the impression the command console only worked for singleplayer mode or at most for the guy setting up the server, don't they use separate characters for SP and MP?
(I mean they're stored locally and there's already a number of trainers available but there's not much they can do about that other than creating some closed MP lobby with server side storage.)

EDIT: Myself I use a separate character (Engineer, kinda fitting.) for screwing around with the game and then the main guy (Berserker, I tend to favor melee combat and a direct approach.) for normal play, reached act 3 some time ago, second act was far better than the first one and much more challenging, some pretty great rewards too. Smile
(Act 3 has a gambler though, got a unique from there but now I'm lacking some money since it's pretty expensive to use it, really like the environments as well, also saw some Myconoids on holiday from the Dungeons & Dragons universe. Very Happy )

EDIT: Oh right, there's mods as well including the whole Steam integration for that version, no idea how that works online though but drop mods and similar will likely appear quite fast.
