Hi friends! Grab your potions and stuff that backpack until it screams, because we’re heading into Part 18 of Torchlight, one of my favorite dungeon crawlers of all time. Eighteen parts. Yeah, we’ve been at this so long that if Torchlight were a Netflix series, we’d be waiting for the renewal announcement by now.
Torchlight is one of those games where you go in thinking, “Okay, I’ll just play for a little bit, kill a few goblins, maybe loot a chest or two.” Then suddenly, three hours later, your pet wolf is running back to town to sell off the 47 rusty swords you’ve hoarded because you swear you might need one of them someday. Spoiler: you won’t.
But here we are, still crawling through this endless labyrinth like IKEA customers looking for the exit. Except instead of meatballs at the end, we get fire breathing dragons, skeletons and questionable magical jewelry.
So buckle up, sharpen your axe, and don’t forget to feed your pet because if there’s one thing Torchlight teaches us, it’s that fighting hordes of monsters is cool, but having a dog who can run errands for you? That’s priceless.
