Drakensang Online vs Torchlight 2
Drakensang Online
Drakensang Online is an extremely well-made browser-based MMORPG of the dungeon-crawling variety set in the ruined world of Dracania. Based on the hugely popular series of Drakensang games, this game features tons of dungeons (of course), 4 different modes of PvP, 4 different character classes, as well as various collectable pets and mounts. The game mechanics are pretty awesome too despite being a browser game. In fact, Drakensang Online is possibly the only dungeon crawler that you can play on your browser that is not 2D or text-based!However, like most games, there are some obvious downsides to Drakensang Online, including the lack of shared inventory between characters, the lack of trading between players and well, the quests can get a bit repetitive as you reach the higher levels. Many features in this game requires premium currency, Andermants, too, but it's good to know that at least F2P players can sink in the necessary time and effort to farm for them. Due to this, the game is not exactly a P2W but rather a "pay to get convenience".
Overall, Drakensang Online a great dungeon crawler to play, particularly if you enjoy games like Path of Exile. It may be the "lesser" version of PoE but well, you can play this game directly on your browser - what's not awesome about that?
Torchlight 2
Torchlight 2 is the well-received sequel of the popular dungeon crawling game, Torchlight. Similar to Diablo's sequel, Torchlight took to making its "dungeons" a little more open-aired, resulting in randomized levels overworld (rather than just underworlds) with nice weather effects to make the world feel more alive. There are more towns/adventuring hubs for you to visit too. The campaign is also reworked to provide players who replay the game a greater challenge to match their now upgraded character and as usual, you'll still have your trusty pet and some fishing to do on the side.Torchlight 2 not only supports mods (like the first game) but it also provides multiplayer so you can dive into its worlds by playing with your friends or with random strangers via the matchmaking service.
The Torchlight series have always had amore lighthearted tone to them and that actually made the game feel a lot more relaxing, and for some, more entertaining to play. Regardless of which part of the dungeon-crawling spectrum you like, Torchlight 2 is the sort of game that every fan of the genre should at least experience once in their lives.
