Runic unleashes Torchlight 2 monsters
Apr 9th 2011 12:02PM (Joystiq)they will be releasing TL2 info every other week until E3
Torchlight's Schaefer: MMO subscriptions aren't the way to go
Mar 22nd 2011 8:50AM (Massively)Rift sucks. It will lose ALL its subscribers (even you) when GW2 and The Old Republic comes out.
Because people will not pay to play all 3 games.
However, since this mmo is free, they won't have to worry about losing subscribers when new games come out.
People can always log in and play, even if only for 2 hours a month, without having to sacrifice their other subscription.
Torchlight's Schaefer: MMO subscriptions aren't the way to go
Mar 22nd 2011 8:45AM (Massively)They are making Torchlight 2.

It is coming out this summer. It is multiplayer, but not the mmo. That comes later.
Torchlight's Schaefer: MMO subscriptions aren't the way to go
Mar 22nd 2011 8:42AM (Massively)You're a fool. If HG:L was a scam then why don't you start a class action suit. They made poor decisions, but it was definitely not a scam.
And yes, this is EXACTLY the kind of person who brings expertise to the table because not only have they had their successes, but they have also had their failures. They know what works and what doesn't.
Torchlight's Schaefer: MMO subscriptions aren't the way to go
Mar 22nd 2011 8:38AM (Massively)You are incorrect. Forcing people to choose between two subscriptions is exactly what he meant. He has given numerous interviews since HG:L failed and Runic Games started. He and Travis Baldree have stated this as their reason many, many times.
Six Questions I Want 'Lost' to Answer Before It Ends
Apr 16th 2010 8:41AM (AOL TV)they didn't tell us what the island is. A cork is not an answer.
Did a cork keep Micheal from dying when he tried to kill himself ?
What does Ben mean when he speaks about Illiana's death and says, "I guess the island was finished with her"? So the cork was finished with her ? That doesn't make any sense. And if you believe the island is just a cork then what's the bottle ? and who put it in the bottle ?
Torchlight dev speaks about Blizzard competition, MMO plans
Nov 12th 2009 10:30PM (Joystiq)"Town portal scrolls, pets, fishing, unidentified random magic items"
guess you never played FATE or Mythos
"yellow exclamation marks over quest givers, round minimap in top-right corner"
Oh My God !
no game has ever that before !
"it's hard to know exactly what stat benefits your class the most "
yeah, unless you read the tool tip right in the char sheet
Torchlight to explore retail shelves in January
Nov 6th 2009 3:42AM (Joystiq)Mass Effect was popular, but I didn't care for it. There was just too much going on. You had manage your combat team, constantly switch out weapons for each team member. It just wasn't my thing.
This is simple: point and click. Its got beautiful levels; great looking armor; fun skills and some cool game mechanics: your pet can summon its own minions.
I liked Diablo 1 and 2. I loved Jade Empire. I thought Titan Quest was ok.
Different people like different games. This may not be the game for you. But I do think its more fun at harder difficulties.
And once the editor comes out (in about a week) you will be able to make your own content. Some people have made some wonderful content already even without the editor.
