I'd probably get this of Borderlands wasn't coming out so soon. Completed it on PC with an Engineer or whatever they were called.
Such a good strawberry floating game. I'm sure I'll pick it up eventually, especially for £15.
Way better than Diablo.

Caved and bought this on PS4

I've only played about an hour of the first game but they are both pretty different. The first is really linear where as 2 feels like an MMO Lite type game.
I never really paid attention to the story.

Loved the original Torchlight on the 360. Bought this one on the Switch and it runs awesome! Love these type of games on the Switch as I find them perfect to play on the go as well on a TV.
Ive had one gripe with the game and that's afte routing in a few hours into a character I sent my pet back to town. When it come back the game crashed. After that every time I attempted to load my character the game would keep crashing, I eventually accepted defete and deleted my character and started again. Was quite annoyed at the time but I've gotten over it and still loving it!

This has me to excited. In what way is it better than Diablo? I love Diablo and want something similar.

It's simpler but in the right ways I guess?
It's hard to explain. I could never get into Diablo 3 but I finished Torchlight 2 on PC even though I dislike playing on a keyboard.

If I hadn't gotten back into WoW I would have been all over this. But I will get around to playing it at some point...

Torchlight 3 is out now on early access on Steam, £23 -
Here's what's in the Early Access, per the official blurb:
Travel the Frontier: Players can explore the wilderness, party with friends, gather materials to craft loot, or show off their spoils in town! There's always something to do in the new frontier.
Build & Upgrade Your Fort: It's time to rebuild! Players will enjoy their very own account-based fort, where they can upgrade gear, and make renovations to show it off to their friends and the world. The game allows them to build monuments of power, pet stables, and more!
Choose a Relic: Relics are objects of great power that grant players a suite of active skills and passive skills. Players can craft them, level them up and store them in their fort. The relic is an important part of a character's strategy - choose wisely!
Collect Epic Gear: Whether it's armour, weapons, recipes, ember cores, or even new pets... there's always more to find as adventurers battle through dungeons and take on dangerous foes. Every randomly-generated area can be replayed over and over again since each instance brings different items.
Pets are Back: Players can fight their way to fame and glory with loyal companions! Each of the many species comes in a myriad of colours and styles so adventurers shouldn't settle for the first one they find. They can also make these pets stronger by adding skills, equip them with gear to make them hardier, and together battle enemies as a team.
Build Your Hero: With four classes to choose from, players can utilise class-specific mechanics to maximise damage and their odds of survival. Torchlight 3 lets them gather epic gear, select your Relic powers, and customise loadouts to create a unique combat style for their heroes.
