Torchlight is a sort of Diablo II I've always wanted to play. It has much more positive and pretty cartoonish graphics and a lot of looting (as any Diablo-like game would have ;) ), not to mention fishing mini-game and an (yay!) an option to send a pet to the town instead of running there on my own ;)

I wanted to finish the game with a hardcore char just to test (and testify) my skills with dungeon-crawlers. It's good to know that even the hardest difficulty is not insane and is easily playable (by me). The problem came at the third night. It's just like sleeping when you drive. So *BAM!!!* -- ooh, my health is dropping, how quick, strange. *BAM!!!* -- Game over. My reaction was "Eh?" So that's how I learned my lesson not to play action filled games at night (at least in softcore mode ;) ).

Cheers!

Heh, I am fearful to try Hardcore mode for this very reason. That said, you totally remember the loss and it stays with you unlike softcore mode for sure :D
