NovaSparrow 3.0/5

As much as I hate to say it

As much as I hate to say it... this game sucks. I wanted to play it all the way through to make absolutely sure because I adore Torchlight, but this is flat out garbage. What I like about the game: Grindy Semi-challenging on harder difficulties Loot Pets What I hate about the game: Enchanting system feels like a cheap mobile game designed for micro transactions There are about 15 enemy models. Seriously, that's it. Close to zero differentiation. The zones. There are 6 zones in total. All of them use assets from the others and it doesn't feel like you're travelling, just that someone moved 5 feet. The story. Absolute trash. There's hardly a plot and the climax is a joke. If you want the real torchlight experience, go install Torchlight 2 and add Synergies mod. Until this game gets workshop content, it's not worth 40 bucks.

Frustrating more than fun

"We’re proud to announce a major change coming to Torchlight, making it the true successor to Torchlight I & II. That’s right, Torchlight Frontiers is now Torchlight III!"

I don't usually write reviews

I don't usually write reviews. But i had to on this one. The game in itself has a good core. The combat is smooth apart from just clunky movement at times. Its heavily bugged. Most of the item effects and skill tier effects are not working as intended. But through all that it was still fun to play. However the ultimate deal breaker for this game. Is its a dungeon crawling looter rpg. BUT. The game was actually programmed to give you a ton of legendary gear for your legendarium a.k.a "kanai's cube" early on in the game just to set you up with a massive drop rate nerf at the end game. This was also done on purpose which is baffling as the developers actually wanted an average legendary drop of ONE PER HOUR. If you're a min maxer you will literally go nuts because you will have to korean grind your way just to push even the tiniest increments even from the earliest time you get to max level. The "endless dungeon" scaling is shot to hell. There's no sense of achievement to even push further as there is literally no benefit. No Loot drop rate/exp/passive stat buffs incentive of any kind to even push forward. If you want to smash monsters and grind for loot this game isn't the game for you. I don't regret my purchase since i hope that they can turn the game around but at its current state it's just not worth your time and money. Do yourself a favor if you love the franchise just wait for the game to be fixed but for the meantime boycott the game to hopefully force the developers to get their ♥♥♥♥ together and do the franchise the justice it deserves. Welcome to my TED Talk.
