#TORCHLIGHT 3 VS DIABLO 3 OFFLINE#

This is far worse than what SC2/D3 has, functionality-wise. It's my understanding that T2's multiplayer will be totally decentralized.

If my statement was 'Blizzard DRM vs Steam DRM vs one-shot download', would that have passed muster? My point was more about the online functionality than the DRM itself. I figured that 'to me' would couch my statement enough. Their DRM is a one-time activation that requires the internet the key is good for 10 activations and per their own FAQ if you need more activations you just contact them. With respect, it also makes no sense in the context of the discussion, as Torchlight doesn't require Steam (unless you're on a Mac). Is Activision to blame for this?īesides these things, what does Diablo have that Torchlight lacks? I LIKE Diablo (in the same way that I like Torchlight) but I'm not sure it's '4 times the price of torchlight' like.īlizzard DRM vs Steam DRM makes no difference to me

It was almost to a T.ĭiablo has multiplayer (Torchlight II is supposed to have it).ĭ3's got 5-ish character classes to Torchlight's 3 (Torchlight II has 4, it seems).ĭiablo is done by Blizzard, so it should get support in the form of patches for the next 35 years or so.Ģ4/7 internet requirement with no offline mode (really? I guess we didn't make enough of an impact on Ubi, now others are out to do this.)Īddition of microtransactions. But yeah, after playing D3, I can see this.

'Diablo 2.5.' Never played Diablo at the time, so shrug. Now I heard this when Torchlight came out. (Point and laugh, everyone.) I've been playing the Open Beta, and just completed it with a Witch Doctor. I've never played Diablo until this weekend. (Because I don't want to be seen as threadshitting the D3 thread - It's not meant to be, but I think it might be construed as one.)
