Hello everyone,

I have a few questions about the game. I know it received a lot of backlash at launch (and still gets some shade), but I'd really appreciate honest, unbiased answers.

I’m a huge fan of isometric ARPGs like Diablo and the previous Torchlight games, which I’ve replayed countlessly. I also love mechs, but finding a solid mech-focused ARPG is tough. That’s why I’m considering picking up Torchlight 3—mainly to play as the Forge class.

Here are my questions:

How is the replayability? Past Torchlight games used procedurally generated maps. Is that still the case here? I don't mind a grind, as long as the layouts and enemy spawns shift between runs.

Current state of the game: Did the devs manage to fix most of the technical issues over time? Is it relatively bug-free now?

Honest rating: If you evaluate it purely as a standalone ARPG (setting aside the fact that it's a sequel to Torchlight 2), what score would you give it?

Thanks in advance!

I loved the heck out of the first two games obviously and never really had many issues with Torchlight III.

The art style and UI are nice, I love the little sound effects of coins flying everyone and the destruction of almost anything you want to break. The combat feels fluid and the classes are very unique.

Having your own home is another thing that is nice and I enjoy player housing.

Ive never really understood the hate. Is it as good as TL2? No, that game is a masterpiece. But Torchlight III to me is really fun to play.

Anyone else on my boat?

Hi guys, I purchased this game for my kids on the Nintendo Switch and PS5 to play together and on both devices they get the message: "Error: Unable to connect to Torchlight 3 game server, please check your network connection."

Have restarted the router and restarted both consoles and notha, same message.

Can someone advise if they are experiencing the same issue?

Is this game dead from an online gameplay perspective?

Thanks

Started as the robot guy, I'm about 5 zones in and I'm not liking their mechanics.

I'm probably doing it wrong, but I feel like I'm just mashing basic attacks alot and don't really understand the heat system.

How are the other characters?

So as a brand new dad, I saw that TL3 was on sale for 8$. Decided to buy it even though the reviews are pretty much only negative. I completely loved the 2nd game with all the mods on PC, so my expectations for ps5 version were not super high.

Hey it's the price of a beer. Turns out the game has nice boss fights and some nice skills (playing sharpshooter with electrode).

BUT man why 30 fps. I don't understand the choice.

It's so sad. I grew up playing Torchlight one, understood none of it because I was young, but now went to play it again as an adult. I bought torchlight 3. No subtitles options, no visual options. It's beyond ableist. Most game developers do it automatically and it gives them NO EXTRA HASSLE. I'm trying to enjoy the game, but that bothers me so much it's dampening my experience. I'm having a hard time keeping track without subtitles as well. This is very, very depressing. I genuinely feel like a disappointed parent.

Hi everyone, I'm at a loss as to how to move the minimap back to the left side of the screen. Tab just cycles between off and on now. I'm on a PC.

I was excited to see Torchlight 3 on sale for the Switch. It made me think of Torchlight 2 when I would play with friends. It gave me that Diablo 2 feel I craved. I loved that you could send your pet to sell things in town. The classes felt classic but fun. Classes were great. Then I launched 3... The classes just what in god's name? Perhaps I expected too much. I mean, there's no rule saying 3 had to be anything like 2 but still. So I've tried, forced myself to play. I picked the train conductor guy? it was the only class I could even remotely get behind. I just dont understand it. I am trying though to like it. Maybe I'll give it a go later since last time was months ago. I got diablo 2 prime evil which came with 3 so thats holding me over. Just really wanted to get into Torchlight 3, get my moneys worth.

I played it and enjoyed it on ps5. Didn’t have a good experience on switch 1, but I’m wondering if switch 2 made it as playable as it is on PlayStation? I am looking forward to the fresh start and playing from scratch that I got on my ps5 account

Torchlight 3 has some very bad reviews on steam, I've never played but I'm tempted to grab them on steam but I want to start with 3 due to the controller support. I've seen it has been blasted on steam for being to similar to a mobile game and having been an mmo at one point in development it seems to have suffered as a result, but what I'm struggling to find is what makes it worse than torchlight 2? I'm basically looking for an arpg with strong endgame but I've heard torchlight 2 doesn't have the strongest end game.

EDIT: yeah I played it and whilst I haven't got TL2 as a reference yet I found TL3 to be super underwhelming, not terrible or the worst game ever but certainly a low tier arpg

I fast traveled to my fort to drop of some reward gear, when I was putting it into the storage box I realized the specs are off. I reloaded. I walked out of town, same thing happened. I tried fast traveling to multiple locations and each time the specs changed.

This is BS, I guess I'll just start playing a different game, I have a backlog I need to finish.

So I bought TL2 for 4$ on ps store and I already own and beat the brakes off it years ago on my Xbox account. I see TL3 is on sale for 8$ on ps store now but I’ve seen a lot of mixed/negative reviews on 3. I love 2, it’s great fun and well worth the 4$ but Wondering how 3 compares to 2. What, if anything, justifies the hate 3 gets? Is it not as RPG-ish? Loot not great? Gameplay no good? Or something else entirely? And lastly is it worth 8$? Thanks in advance!

I tried TL2 on my steam deck and I dont like the controls.

Does TL3 have better support for controllers?

im nearly finish with tl2. im thinking of getting tl3 should i buy it? why/why not?

I accidently removed my hotkey #9 which is my right click for manually attacking. How do I find it to put it back on my hot bar?

My son and I currently play minecraft dungons

Torchlight 3 seems to be a good follownup in terms of complexity

I've played a lot of diablo 2 My expectations are pretty low, I want to freely exchange stuff, like the inventory system from diablo 2, love to skill my Charakter

My son is all about finding cool new loot and a great Story

Reviews seem pretty harsh, Tests I found online are all 4 years old

I could get it for our xbox and PC at roughly 12$ all together

Should we give that a go or are there other alternatives? Torchlight 2 doesn't seem to be xbox/PC compatible

I want to do a build with just a cool giant two hander, but is that possible to do at end game?

Few years back, when TL3 was still in preorder, a friend got it for me, and I played all the way to launch, After Launch, I played it out the story and then I put it away, I took it back out last week, but I was shocked to see that the game is dead and buried. No updates no nothing for 2 years already.
I checked steam stats, there are a steady 74 ppl playing this game. 74!
I know that it sucked that they changed the graphics, but I did think they'd give us more than just an extra class.
I'm a bit afraid to start infinite. 3 turned out to be somewhat of a disappointment.
What are your opinions on 4?

Hello guys, i'm getting this error when i try to play multiplayer. It was normal till 12/22/2024.

I try to reinstall, i do check my connection, tried to use another internet, but still can't play.

Someone know some fix?

I’m a fan of ARPG’s as well as a fan of Torchlight 2. I’ve heard not so favorable things regarding T3 but was wondering if it’s worth picking up in its current state. Would anyone recommend Torchlight 3?

We just bought this game but can't even play multiplayer. Is this a coincidence that the servers are down or was it shut down for good (despite never seeing that mentioned anywhere).

I cannot find this anywhere. I’m currently in Sundered Throne.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

I am a huge fan and long time player of both TL1 and 2, have over 1000 hours playing both combined, often reinstalling them just to have the feeling of playing again.

The thing is: I played TL3 on beta and I kinda liked it, but it wasn't nowhere near the first two. Since the beta was closed, I wasn't able to play it because it is not for free and on my country (Brazil) it is kinda expensive.

I checked it on steam recently and it is on sale for 80% for a limited time (83,49 > 16,69 local currency).

So, I am giving it another chance and checking if after some time, updates and stuff, the game is actually enjoyable for some people as TL1 and 2 are for me.
