Torchlight... more like Fatelight

Torchlight itself is a great game, I wont deny it however its so similar to Fate (from WildTangent) it literally just seems like a sequal with some improvements.

Torchlight itself has some pretty decent graphics for a diablo-like RPG, it adds new things like Guns and some better animations and expands on what Fate was like but to be honest if you want to copy a game PLEASE try not too make it too obvious. If you've ever played Fate before you would know right away that its a copy, I mean even the Main menu is exactly the same. They both start off with pets.. you choose between a dog and a cat, you can feed it fish to change it into different creatures and so on, but it's so similar to Fate I might as well just pop Fate in and play that.

Overall the game feels like a modern fate which has been improved on but please once again If you try and copy a game don't make it too obvious.

8.5/10

  The best ARPG to keep you busy until Diablo III, and at $20.00 it's a deal that can't be beat!
