Point being, GRAAAAAAAAAH WHARRRRGARBL about someone dropping a Wasteland reference seems premature until we can actually see that, no, nothing in the game is Wasteland-inspired.
If I can fire a full clip of 9mm UZI ammo into a Thug I think it will pretty obvious that it is, in fact, Wasteland inspired. Also, the helicopter in Wasteland was the greatest thing I had ever seen in a RPG up to that point. A HELICOPTER!! IN A VIDEO GAME!!

Murgos appears to have grasped what Wasteland was really about.

Can we please change the title of this thread to indicate it is a single player game and possible move it to the other forum?

LAN or GTFO.  But why would you need a LAN option? The servers will be up for ever and ever...

I still say it looks exactly like Mythos. Check out that minimap. Not complaining.
The real question at this point is: can they make me care enough about Torchlight to buy it while this MMO thing lurks in the shadows?

Well, I really hope he did! I still listen to the D1/2 music from time to time.

watch the alpha video demo at e3 here http://www.tentonhammer.com/node/69637the most interesting thing about the game is that they're shipping the editing tools with the game, so you can build your own, classes, skills, maps, dungeons, traps and change just about anything in the game you want a demo of the editor is shown towards the end another vid http://www.perfectworld.com/modules/e3_2009/swf/tl.swfone of the devs said this about editing summoned monsters to show up in formations Here's how formations work. You can make a bunch of monster spawners and tell them what kind of monster to spawn, and then you can arrange them however you like. So, you could put weak monsters all around a strong one, or archers behind warriors, or whatever you think would be cool. Then you would hook your summon up to the layout you made, and the monsters will spawn the way you set them up. the game is also built without shaders so it will run on practically anything, they've even had it running on a netbook

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeow. Now, James, learn how to use proper punctuation and such before you get yourself hurt.

I don't know how many people here actually played Mythos, but the game had a lot of potential. I've been keeping my eyes on this for just that reason. The editing tools, etc, only sweeten the pot, though I do still worry about this game having to compete directly with Diablo 3, which will push it so far under the radar that it may never be seen again.

Diablo 3 probably has 2 years left before they even seriously consider beta. We are talking about Blizzard here.
Torchlight 2 might be out by then.

You know what I like? Allowing bare IP addresses through NoScript. Not really.

Not really. ok, you'll have to explain that to me, because I don't know what you mean The embedded video is from some random server with just an IP address, so if you run NoScript on top of Firefox, you have to allow an unidentified machine to run scripts in order to watch it. That is a security no-no.

really? that's interesting it makes sense what you're saying, but I guess I just don't understand what's happening I just looked at the source for that page and the file parameter for the video is http://video.playmagazine.com/movies/torchlight/lavaroom.mp4 so it's not an IP address of some random server; maybe there's something else going on with the script that I don't see I am using FireFiox, but not NoScript you can always just download and save the mp4 file to your pc and play it using windows media player

Yes. Take a look around the site, do you see other people doing that shit (except when used as an engine of humor)? If you don't want to use capital letters, proper grammar, and such - feel free to go post at Gaia Online or something.
