3 days to go and by taking a closer look I am really excited now about this game.
Here is some info from Steam:
Runic Games will initially release Torchlight as a standalone Single Player game, Torchlight will be released in the latter part of 2009 as a download or in box. Following the single player release, work will commence on a fully-featured MMO version.
..and a bit which I am very, very curious about...
Retirement System - Once characters are sufficiently leveled up, they can ?retire? and bestow specific benefits and perks to new characters.
I wonder what this means but whatever it means any character/perks export option sound good to me.:thumbsup:
Is it really single player only for now!?!? You mean NO online or LAN? If so that is absolutely ridiculous and whatever slight interest I had in the game is completely gone.
Yeah i hear ya, but honestly I see this plan of theirs being a complete failure just as Hellgate was. Hellgate had massive potential but failed due to three main things... 1) P2P somewhat 2) not enough tile sets 3) buggy as hell. But hey i hope I'm wrong and the game does great...ill probably stick to waiting for D3 ;).
The best thing about this game is the modding possiblity, they already said this is a kind of testing game. They plan to make it a MMO. But as soon as I finish playing the game with the Vanquisher.
I will run into the Modding part and make Diablo 3 classes and bosses, oh yeah!
I think I'm going to get the game just because I want D3... its weird, but I just want to look at a game from a top view and kill stuff right now.. Even if I'm really not a fan of how it looks.
All's i have to say is the fire weapon that guy is holding, has some pretty good lighting effects. Otherwise, Diablo III looks to, umm, maybe not cartoony, but to glossy and "happy", i want it to be down and dirty, gritty, sacrificial alters, bloody corpses, torture chambers ect.
It appears you guys have been privy to Torchlight for quite a while now (Sorry I just found this thread). Jump over and let me know what you think about implementing some of this stuff in D3?
its almost a 100% diablo clone, with some elements from fate, and almost aan eemnt or two from Champions of Norrath type game. Itll be the most effective and known diablo clone once it gets going. I mean, look, feel, idea, setup, everything is diablo, alot even looks like play weeve seen from D3 ESPECIALLY some of the areas you go over, its simply amazing, it almost looks as if this was D3 before they scraped it and changed style, graphics update, and a little style and run change.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
Thank You for that update. I quite enjoyed the videos which you linked and the review article:

I think it's fair to say that you read my mind; hearing the music made deciding to preorder extremely easy.
