Path of Exile vs Torchlight: The Legend Continues
Path of Exile
Path of Exile is a game come true for fans of the dungeon-crawling MMO genre, much like Drakensang Online. However, this game has a much more similar theme to the dark and brooding tone set by the Diablo series as opposed to the more lighthearted tone in the Torchlight series. Like most dungeon crawlers, the gameplay in Path of Exile is pretty much a straight-up hack-and-slash but interestingly, the character you play has a variety of passive and active abilities that provide players with the freedom to create whatever build they like. Of course, these builds and the players' skills will be put to the test when they attempt to take on an epic boss which if defeated, will shower their group with plenty of amazing loot.Another interesting aspect in Path of Exile is its robust and thriving player-driven economy. Similar to Diablo 3's albeit failed auction system in some way, players who raid often can sell any loot they don't need on the market rather than a mere AI vendor usually at a marked-up price. Other players who don't have that much time to raid but money aplenty can then spend the necessary amount to buy the stuff they need.
Path of Exile is definitely the sort of free-to-play game fans of Diablo, or any dungeon crawler game really, will love to play. If you happen to be one of them, then what are you waiting for? Try the game now!
Torchlight: The Legend Continues
Torchlight: The Legend Continues is a dungeon crawler that manages to combine the essences of both Diablo and Torchlight series and packaged it into a mobile-friendly format. Featuring an auto-pathfinding system, the game feels a lot different than any other "automated games" out there mainly due to the abundance of character customization options (mainly through skill combinations and equipment). Randomization is also added to its gameplay and its maps, so you'll encounter very different scenarios even if the dungeon you are running is the same one. It keeps the game experience fresh and exciting.Similar to the old Torchlight games, there are also pets that you can adopt. These pets have their own set of main and passive skills which can be applied in your combat. Pets can be improved by fishes caught via fishing at randomly-spawned fishing ponds in the game.
Torchlight is one of the most loved dungeon crawlers, possibly second only to the Diablo series, and this mobile version of it does the franchise justice in many ways. So, if you love playing dungeon crawlers on your mobile devices, you should definitely try Torchlight: The Legend Continues.
