Unless I am conflating it with s.th. else I got Torchlight from GoG as a 
freebie when buying [whatever it was]. 

I fired it up for a little while.

The first thing that struck me about it is that it's (or at least looks 
like) a remake of Fate - the game that was accused of containing spyware 
of some sort. Fishing for things in a pond looks exactly the same.

The second thing that struck me about it is that it's pure hack'n slash, 
often at a frantic pace. Roguelike with graphics, whatever you want to 
call it. 

If there's depth (apart from dungeon levels) then I haven't delved 
deeply enough. I deleted Torchlight as a waste of harddrive space after 
three sessions or so, and I have terabytes free at that. Dungeons of 
Dredmor (sp?) lasted more than twice as long and has not yet been 
wiped .... :-)
