I haven’t played it. My impression is that it was trying very hard to cater to the mobile market. I heard it suffered from a lot of design changes and ended up being sold and then patched up and released by a new team to cut their losses. Meanwhile, Torchlight 2 may be older but it was made with love and care and a strong vision. It’s dirt cheap now too so it’s not hard to get your money’s worth out of it.
Have played a few hours of infinite and there’s fun to be had with the different characters, but every character being (different build and skills) locked behind another paywall, it’s a tough sell… (And as far as I remember the publisher was Korean from the start)
What are your thoughts on Torchlight 3?

I’ve played the first one and second, they’re both great. Sad to hear about the third game.
I mean there’s always Torchlight infinite; which I hear was bought up by a Korean mobile game dev and monetized to hell
