Torchlight 2 launch trailer and release date announced. People schedule their next vacation days to play! #torchlight2
The second of my awaited spring/summer releases I was waiting on is finally less then 3 weeks away. In a beautiful PAX scoop Massively got hands on and announced that Torchlight 2 will be here September 20th. Ahh just in time as I have weaned myself of f of Diablo 3. In the trailer/release video (below thanks to Massively for the scoop) you see all the classes and some of the action. It’s straight Diablo style as before with the same cartoony look as the first Torchlight.
This is all fine to me b/c I don’t care about style and, TBH, the change up in weight is what I really like about TL. If it was heavy and dark like Diablo I don’t think we would like it as much anyway. So hopefully the skill trees are awesome, the slotting dropped spells are great (like in TL) and the loot is plentiful. I suspect it will all be the same but just BETTER, so I am fairly certain I will be playing and trying to beat this again with all the available characters in the game (Like I did with the first TL and D3).
So set your alarms for Sept. 20th and make sure you take that Thursday and Friday off from work and have a nice 4 day weekend to take it all in! I know I am excited… how about you?
