Kingdom Hearts 2 vs Torchlight
Kingdom Hearts 2
Kingdom Hearts 2 is a pretty old game but it is still very well-received sequel to the original Kingdom Hearts game. In this game, you play as Sora as he, Donald and Goofy continued their quest, starting from the small and quiet Twilight Town which straddles between night and day. Aside from the usual Disney worlds, you'll be treated to brand-new ones such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Beauty and the Beast, and Mulan. The game even boasts of having a much advanced and flexible combat system, allowing for powerful new combos and cooperative attacks. Not to mention, Sora now has a new "Drive" command that can change him into an array of new forms, modifying his skills and abilities as he morphs. Travel from world to world in style through the game's brilliant theme park-styled rides too!Kingdom Hearts 2 is an amazing game in its own right, and despite its age, the game still stands really well on its own until today.

Torchlight
Torchlight is a fun dungeon crawling game that features an epic storyline, thrilling action and a loyal pet companion, which you can customize, to boot! Assemble a team of three heroes and descend into the monsters-filled caverns below the town in search of the valuable and rare ore, Ember, as well as plenty of riches and glory. You can even take a breather in between all the monster slaying to head off to a fishing pool and go fishing. The fishes you get are surprisingly powerful though - they can be fed to your loyal companion and turn it into powerful battle allies rather than just being a pack mule.Like most dungeon crawlers, randomization is key to the gameplay, giving players a fresh new experience everytime they replay the game, but of course, mod support also gives the game an even longer lifespan. To faciliate this replayability, the game even has a retirement system in place which allow you to pass down prized equipment to your new heroes as you "retire" the old one.
Torchlight may not have enjoyed a following that's large as Diablo, but the game has its own group of loyal fans and hardcore players who still play the game. The game itself feels so much more lighthearted than the dark demonic tones of the latter and is perfect for players who enjoy dungeon crawlers but dislike being scared silly by grotesque creatures of hell.
