At its heart, Torchlight II follows the trail of destruction left by the Alchemist, the protagonist from the first game who has been driven insane. Players embark on a journey across vast, randomly generated overland areas and dungeons to find a cure for his illness and save the world of Vilderan.
At its core, Torchlight II is an Action RPG (ARPG) driven by the "loot loop." You kill monsters, they drop gold and gear, you equip the better gear to kill bigger monsters, and the cycle repeats. It is a formula perfected by Diablo , but Torchlight II adds its own flavor of accessibility and speed. torchlight ii nintendo switch
