Lineage II vs Torchlight 2
Lineage II
Lineage II is one of the world's largest and most immersive, fantasy-themed free-to-play MMORPG set in the vast and beautiful world of Aden. The game was originally released back in April of 2004 and has been actively growing and expanding ever since. Through 13 years of constant development, the game, the world, and even the mechanics have been updated to not only improve the overall game experience for its players but also to be relevant enough to appeal to the new generation of gamers.Lineage II has everything you'd expect from a huge MMORPG, including both PvE dungeons and PvP siege warfare battles as well as a well-mapped out yet non-linear character progression. The game even has 37 different classes (through the new Awakening process) and players can use skills and abilities from other classes to create a sub-class of their own. There are also pets and mounts that you can raise and collect (respectively). However, the most amazing thing about this game is that it's truly and completely free to play.
When it comes to MMORPGs that have withstood the test of time, there are only a few that can rival the legacy that Lineage II has set in the MMO genre. If you count yourself a true MMO fan, this is a game you simply must at least try. You'll be missing out if you don't!
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.
