Sounds fucking awesome!! Release date of the SP side of the game; October 27th. The MP/MMO portion will arrive around 18 months later, according to the official FAQ.

Love the price, too! $19.99 Shocked

couldn't get into fate, it got boring really fast. i'm hoping this'll be better, 'cause hacknslashes me likes.


Awwww, don't say that Sad FATE and FATE Undiscovered Realms are absolutely awesome! Especially when modded Very Happy

Reading through the FAQ, seems this game *is* a new FATE. Gosh, it sounds almost identical (and the video on GT? Hell, it even LOOKS identical) Awesome! More FATE goodness! Also, we have a PAX mini-preview;

And screens! Looks like a blast Smile

I preordered it too. These are the guys that got rid of Bill Roper, right? Looks as if they know what they're doing.


Epsilon: Game is great btw, I love it, so far it's a definite goty. It's remarkable how much has changed since the beta, stardock have been working their asses off, and it shows.

There hasn't been any pricing, if any, options released yet. The MMO side of Torchlight isn't due for around 18 months after the SP campaign is released.

This game has the EXACT same features as FATE.

Interface looks nicer and graphics look a little nicer... but the features are almost identical.
Choose a pet... take a break by fishing and find benefits for both you and your pet... random dungeon layouts... retirement system... I guess that guy that made FATE is on this. These are the same guys that were working on Mythos for Flagship correct? If so, same guy did FATE.

just to clarify things, torchlight is a purely singleplayer game. no mp whatsoever.
the torchlight mmo is a separate game (not an addition to the sp game), and will be free to play with a micro transaction store.

So this means people waiting for COOP or so will have to wait around 18 months more ???

Retarded, but still it might be fun when there isnt really RPG to play at the moment...

Matt Uelmen's music really gives this the Diablo feel. A huge improvement over FATE.

Definitely excited for this! I loved FATE and the extremely short play-time I had on Mythos was incredibly fun too.
