Torchlight a blend of Diablo 2, Fate, WOW, and the kicthen sink for only $20.00.I might be streaching a bit to say it was a blend of WOW but you can see the influences of Diablo 2, Fate and a little bit of WOW.  They also changed a few things to make it more fun.There is fishing and a pet like Fate had.  There are different colored weapons like Diablo 2 had.

I believe this is an awesome game for $20.00. I hope they come out with more games like this.  I do not like paying $60.00 and a few weeks later my sons and I have finished the game.  This is well worth the $20.00 if you are a RPG Gamer.This is a PC game and for those parents who care you can turn off the Blood Splatter.  I really like this it shows the company cares about people who play this.  There are three different types of characters and two pets a dog and a cat.Runic Games, Inc.
