I really loved the original, and have been waiting for this release. Nothing like an awesome dungeon crawler to keep you grinding for hours. Oh yeah and I was the first post so I should Get in!!!! BOOYA!

Lazy_Sunday4368d ago

Well, I believe I should get the beta keys for several reasons:

1) I posted right after the first comment, so you know you know I know I'm special. And by special, I mean better than everybody else. Not in a selfish way, just in a 'haha, I'm better than you, seriously, I am. Haha! We're joking but I'm totally serious.' Kind of way. Like that. Haha. Get it?

2) I made my own avatar instead of using one of the default ones. That took time. Lots of time. Time I could have spent living my life. But instead I spent it here. Making an avatar. For you guys to maybe see.

3) I am handicapped. I have a severe illness that required my spine to be removed and replaced with a synthetic metal unit. This left me unable to walk for two months. Now I can walk, but just not during lightning storms (tehe!). I also have ADHD, so my mental handicap puts me at a par 4.

I just played the sympathy card. Bam. You know that makes you feel guilty.

4) I am a huge fan of Torchlight 1. I bought it on Steam and have logged over 300 hours into the game. My only complaint is that it didn't have multiplayer. And now it does. And I have been dying every time the game has been delayed. One day I might die. And I might never get to play Torchlight 2 before it launches. Do you want to be responsible for letting me not have that opportunity?

5) I am no longer a virgin, so I can not enjoy the splendors of life like I used to in ignorance. Please give this poor young college student an opportunity, to save his life! Save him from the liquid devil, the mary juana, and the pressures of his peers! Do you want to destroy this young man's life? If you don't give him a beta key to Torchlight 2, you might just do that :O

Pressure's on N4G. The choice is yours. Give it to some random sneering child (no offense everyone), or save someone's life. Give that beta key to me. Save the life of a young man. For his future. Who knows, maybe he'll use that key to cure cancer? I guess we'll have to see.

Balls in your court.

hendrawan4364d ago

what if u just wait for the release?
everyone might die... EVERYONE! you might die today, so do i... but its percentage is lower than 0.000001%

So, u just need to wait and sit on ur lazy ***, for the release :D

blackpanther9894368d ago

Ever since the first torchlight 1 my friends and I have all wished it had multiplayer and now it does with Torchlight 2 and we can't wait.

Cirran4368d ago

Never played Torchlight 1 but very interested in this. Already pre purchased it on steam.

DeleteThisxx4368d ago

So, you pre-purchased Torchlight II on Steam and haven't played the first one, eh?

That's funny, considering you get the first one for free when you purchase Torchlight II.

Cirran4368d ago

Hows it funny?_? Thats one of the reasons I prepurchased it. To play the first one. Haven't got round to it yet tho.

Rynocirator4368d ago

I have been playing isometric action rpgs since baldur's gate and diablo 1 and it is my favorite genre, I own all the popular games like diablo, diablo 2, diablo 3 (bought the collector's edition), torchlight, titan quest, grim dawn (backed the kickstarter), and I plan on getting torchlight 2 and from the videos I've seen it vastly improves from the first game (which was close to perfect even with the absence of multiplayer) so I think I'm a good candidate because of my love of the genre

Azione4368d ago

I have boobs, deal with it.

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

isarai8h ago

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken8h ago

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Valkyrye6h ago

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken5h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

Inverno3h ago

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop2h ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Chocoburger2h ago

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Aussiesummer1h ago

It's not a remaster, it's a next gen update.

badz1491h ago

LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?

Profchaos54m ago(Edited 53m ago)

The ps5 version doesn't change a ton but from my small playtime it's enough to make me want to replay it just to have it running at 60.

A side note to this my PS4 version no longer boots after it's "update" so I guess that's what it feels like to own a Bethesda game on PC

Why Monopolies In Gaming Must Not Be Allowed

As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.

thorstein7h ago

Shouldn't be allowed in any field.

Inverno3h ago

And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.

jwillj2k42h ago

Eventually they’ll realize the value is with the employee not the company. Buying an IP means nothing if the people who contributed are let go. They’ll get it one day.

MrCrimson1h ago

tech is different because they buy threats and then kill them. Twitter bought Vine and did nothing with it. Despite people seemingly liking it. Could've had tiktok a decade before bytedance. go figure.

Zenzuu2h ago

Monopolies shouldn't be allowed regardless. Not just for gaming.

MrCrimson1h ago

They buy IPs not talent. That's why these buyouts never work and the IPs die. Right now it's too expensive to develop games - but I expect that to shift maybe as AI tools can make it easier. The best games have been indie games for awhile as big developers fuck their ips to death with "games as a service" -

Hopefully Microsoft will go back to the original story line and get away from that woke nonsense from the last Gears game Gears of Woke! But were talking about Microsoft so all the betting money is on more of the same woke nonsense.

Sciurus_vulgaris59m ago

The Locust trilogy concluded with Gears of War 3. I don’t get how Gears 4 and 5 are “woke” .
