Runic has spent a lot of time making Torchlight 2 the game we all wanted the first to be. The game was well received but the gripes were well heard. There was no multiplayer and players were basically only exploring one area as they traveled further down a mine. It was sorely lacking in features but had a charm about it that made the game easy to fall for. Torchlight was a wonderful little game that felt more like a tech demo of sorts. This time around, the game feels much more open and full of features. Runic Games returns and blasts away nearly every single gripe players had with the original Torchlight.

However, with the release of the third game many fans have become bothered by the new stances that Blizzard has with its games and some glaring omissions of features. There have been many that have tried to take Diablo’s throne but the Lord of Terror has reigned supreme. Longevity is the title I would give Blizzard’s dark series.
