  • For those who haven't played Torchlight, it's free on GOG.com today only.

    Actually, it's free until 1159 GMT on June 20th.

    ACK!

    From looking at Wiki's article on this game, it appears to be Diablo with the classes renamed. Is there more to it than that?

      It's basically a Diablo clone, but it's also free (and fun), so shut up and get it already.

        Eh, I consider "like Diablo" to be something of an antonym of "fun." Tried Diablo once, concluded it was like Minesweeper without the logic puzzles and quit two levels in. If you disagree, of course, more power to you.

          I bought this two years ago for $10. Good thoughtless time killer. Worth the money.

            I'm downloading it because it's free although I didn't like Diablo much, but I'm more likely to waste my time on Alan Wake which I saw was 90% off

              Interesting interpretation. I never thought of it that way. I can't say you are incorrect, either. The game is constructed in much the same manner. The control scheme is different, obviously. The looting and whatnot adds a new dimension. But from a design standpoint, it basically is Minesweeper.
              To us, it is the BEAST.

                  Torchlight was fun. It is basically Diablo... but back to the roots of what made the first ones good. I played the **** out of Torchlight when it first came out. I think I'm done with the genre. It's good. But there's nothing new for me to explore with it.

                    I've been looking for a new time killer. Thanks.

                      It's Rogue with pictures.

                        I think you're giving me too much credit for deep thought here. I meant that both games involve clicking the mouse until your finger falls off.

                          If you like Diablo, then you'll love Statbuilder
