    No Dru but I did it ten times and it never happened so obviously there's a 0% chance of it

    A guy did claim to have rummaged around in the code with a mod but he might as well have rummaged around in his own pants if there's no proof

    Steam is really fucking me in the ass right now. It keeps telling me the Steam servers are too busy to update Torchlight. The fuck? Just allow me to get the update on my own then and play the damn game I paid for.

    ok so

    I don't know if it was the update or what

    but when enchanting something

    the enchanter dialog tells you what the chance of destroying it is

    that's new in the patch
    also supposedly the chance to destroy is higher now

    I played a good chunk of the demo this evening and goddamn I need to stop buying so many games so I won't feel guilty about getting this!

    It just plays so smoothly!

    I haven't been able to play Diablo II lately because the game is so goddamn hard nowadays and multiplayer isn't as fun as it was when I was in high school.

    chaining enchants isn't nearly as successful after the patch
    the more times you enchant something, the higher the risk of losing all enchants
    the cost also seems higher than it was before, and is based on the quality if the item you're starting with

    Yeah, enchanting uniques is 10,000 and up minimum. Sets are either the same or around 5,000ish up.

    Edit: The patch changed it apparently? Unless it only effects old items.

    Torchlight 1.2

    Fixed several issues which could overwrite saves, and protected against possible save loss. Save backups are now also generated.
    Much reduced load times for many users
    Some minor ingame performance improvements
    Fixed Needle Arc XP exploit
    Fixed Shadow Armor stacking effects
    Fixed vendor dupe bug
    Fixed various fullscreen startup issues
    Fixed broken Brink cinematic on subsequent plays
    Fixed merchant 'thief' exploit
    Fixed right clicking in inventory casting certain spells
    Fixed console not activating on Steam builds - this also fixes the fact that subsequent characters didn't see the random dungeon unlock after the first completion
    Fixed issue with Syl's cinematic not being "skippable" during first boss fight
    Fixed some DOT deaths not dropping loot
    Quest items no longer allowed in stash
    Several level fixes for a few places where things overlapped, or collision was missing, or stuck-issues cropped up
    Fixed texture/mesh/ replacement issues with mods
    You can now change difficulty level on the fly from the console without being branded a Cheater ( UNLESS you're playing hardcore )
    Fixed pet minions not awarding fame
    Fixed slow load times when mods were enabled
    Pets inherit your spell masteries
    Magic find takes the max value between you and your pet when pets or pet minions make a kill
    Visible/increasing chance of stripping enchants via enchanter. Price based on # of enchants. Variables tunable in globals.dat
    Troll pet is properly invincible
    Tree Boss could be charmed - fixed
    Fixed issue - Returning to town if you died during Ember Colossus or Medea would make them dormant on return
    weapon + shield doesn't count as 'dual wielding'
    Shimmering Scale ( and 2 other socketables ) now work properly when socketed
    Ember lance slight nerf
    Ember lightning slight buff
    Aloe Gel summon provides better healing
    Equippables properly provide bonuses to passive skills
    Fixed display issue where multiple skill bonuses on the same item would collapse into a single display
    Hardware skinning settings respected properly for pet paperdolls
    Fix for potential bad state in the henchman battle
    Enchantments at level 100 now work
    Relabeled difficulty levels, and added tooltips explaining each
    Fixed 'free spell purchase' exploit
    Socketables cannot be heirloomed
    Fix for masteries not updating certain spell bonuses until logout/login
    Summon Blood Skeleton has 11 levels now
    Various small grammar and spelling fixes
    ADDITION : Rimlights, HW Skinning, and VSynch can all be altered from the Settings menu now.
    MODDERS: Items can be set to 'always identified'

    Figures even before they patched it the one time I tried to enchant it wiped everything off this great shoulder set...

    Over on

    of course "globals.dat" doesn't describe any of the files in application folder

    I did find a very interesting "settings.txt" file under username\AppData\Roaming\runic games\torchlight which seems to allow turning on something called "netbook mode"

    edit: no, wait, open the "Pak.zip" file and open the only folder inside it

    edit again: buuuuuuut this file looks like gibberish to me. Do I need to be able to read hexcode to change these variables?

    I just played through with the demo and it was fun, but I just had the feel that I've played it all before with Diablo. And it kinda just made me kinda blase over it.

    It's killing me to not find an item to change my dog into some hideous monster permanently, because his puppy yelping noises (because he is the worst combattant ever on very hard) are making me feel awful. No amount of heals can save his hide.

    there's a vendor item that will allow you to change him into a kitty permanently

    would pitiful mewling be better than pathetic yelping?

    Yeah I'm noticing this too, though a lot of the stages on these floors have been elevated and have no nearby water.
