Torchlight II Beta Weekend begins Today (Friday, May 18th).....

Quote from V0RT3X : Yet none of that matters. You played a tiny portion of D3 and thinks u know the whole game. I just finished the boss and the experience has been nothing but really fun And don't worry, I have TL2 on preorder as well

Agreed.

Most of the TL2 fanbois seem to have this same exact attitude.

Feel free to compare the D3 beta to the TL2 beta. that's apples to apples. But saying that TL2 is a better game than D3 when you haven't played the full version of EITHER game is just...silly.

I've pre-ordered TL2 as well, and I'm sure I'll have a blast with it! But I've also had more fun with D3 than I have with any other video game since...probably since Final Fantasy Tactics and/or Disgaea. I'll probably stick with D3 longer than I will TL2, but I suppose that that's yet to be seen.

Quote from BoboLuck : No one is denying that TL2 is or will be a great game. Its just that you played a small sliver of D3 that doesn't do the game justice and you think that makes the rest of the game bad. You may have differing opinions but D3 offered what the majority wanted. The $20 vs $60 means nothing to me. I have no problem paying $60 for a game I enjoy. I'm not broke enough that $40 is going to make any bit of difference.

This nailed it. I'd pay $100 if the game were phenomenal. That said, I'm mildly disappointed with D3, and I'm very excited for TL2, but I don't agree that D3 isn't a great game in it's own right.

I have to say that I didn't really get hooked on D3 until I hit about level 16-17. I never played the beta, but unless they really changed the way the skills roll out by level, there's a LOT to the game that this guy must have missed if you capped at level 13.

Really enjoyed the beta and bought a Torchlight / Torchlight II four pack today.

I'm interested in that 4 pack but only need one. Add me in hehe.

I'm loving D3 and playing way too much but I think I'm looking forward to TL2 more. I never got a beta key so hopefully they'll have another weekend before release (or even better...release early )

If anyone wants to play the beta before it expires today at 7 pm EST in about 4.5 hours, here is a beta account

Sorry to hear. The TL 2 beta is sick. Combat is fast and furious and there are so many new features that show Runic listened to fan feedback from TL 1 and nailed their implementation.
