![]() ![]() ![]() You’re given a tonne of abilities to mow down as many enemies as the game can throw at you, and once you have few skill points allocated, you can have some fun here. Torchlight 3 removes this and it takes away some complexity with character builds. Torchlight 2 had attribute points to allocate towards the usual, vitality, strength, etc. However, Echtra Games dumbed the progression down slightly. Each one of these ruins can be used in really interesting ways to synergize with your class’ skills. I chose Coldheart, granting me a slew of ice-related abilities that helped me slow down the enemies so I could keep my distance and volley arrows towards them. When choosing your character, you can choose 1 of 5 runes that are skill trees with some really unique options. One thing about the level progression that I really enjoyed was the rune system. Let’s take the Sharpshooter for example you have ammo that is used with any ranged skill. The Sharpshooter (my choice for this review) is a hunter class that can wield all sorts of ranged weapons.Įach class has its own ‘mana bar’. The Duskmage uses the power of light and dark magic to disintegrate their foes. The Forged is your typical melee-focused tank with a gun attached to his chest. ![]() The Railmaster is a damage focused melee class but the twist here is that his pet is a train. You start by picking 1 of 4 classes, all of which are some form of an arch-type. Similar to other giants in the genre, Torchlight 3 is presented in an isometric, attacking and moving with your mouse and using the number keys to unleash your skills on the unfortunate enemies around you. For people interested in the lore of Torchlight, there is a fair bit of dialogue when given quests and you can find audio logs that conveniently play as you travel around the world. The intro lasts a mere 5 minutes before you can hack and slash your way through endless waves of enemies. For me, ARPGs are at their best when the story, dialogue, and cutscenes are kept to a minimum and this game does just that. ![]()
