Well, well.
This was my first "Torchlight", so I can't say it's not "Torchlight"
But the game still feels not that great. A lot of stuff feels like it was supossed to be a MMO but got scraped midway
I would say it's okay, at best.

This game was really a bag of mixed feelings for me.
I do not like first-person games at all, but Supraland pushed all the right buttons beside of that.
I really enjoyed it, the collecting, the exploring, the puzzles.
it's really a fun game

A really fun twist for the Darksiders games!
I played the game alone (Want to buy friends)
But it was still very enjoyable.
the "Metroidvenia" part with a chapter select was a bit awkward and seemed forced
but otherwise from that the prequel story was also very interesting
Darksiders 4 when?

This was my first Shantae game.
and the first thought that came to me: They are damn good at making you visit the same level 100 times.
Also it felt a bit like Monster Boy to me with the dances.

It was a really fun game, but a few more levels would not have hurt.
I did not play the DLCs cause I did not feel like paying for them on EA Desktop.

Furi was at times really frustrating.
The enemies signal an attack but attack a bit later, so you are too early with the block
it's all just learning when every enemy actually attacks.
Besides of that it had some really nice Boss Fights and interesting Story.

It was kinda nice to get back into a racing game after years.
It did not have too much beside racing to get me confused.
But the optional Microtransactions were a bit bothersome.
"Yay I found a nice car!"….go to the store to purchase it…..
Besides of that when I reached the top3 it was a bit of a grind for the last ones.
But I really licked to explore the map to find cars

Well… that’s exactly what happened lol. It started development as Torchlight Frontiers and was supposed to be a F2P MMORPG, but then after years of development and apparently based on the feedback given by alpha stage players they’ve decided to just make it B2P and drop the MMO part as well as some other features and mechanics.

As for not playing previous Torchlight games, you’re not really missing much. I mean I kinda did like the first Torchlight, but I felt like it was kinda lacking compared to Fate games. Torchlight 2 was just… really bad. A story that’s barely a story, I’d bet a child would be able to write something better and more interesting. Skills weren’t really well balanced, some were just not worth picking up and then some were viable but not as good as certain skills. So while each class did have skill trees with seemingly good amount of variety since they weren’t well balanced that variety is just an illusion.
