Mods? Workshop?
I want to see the classes from TL 1 and TL 2 imported to TL3
I hate that TL1 wasnt multiplayer, I hate that TL2 didnt have full controller support for the PC version and now I Hate that TL3 wont allow me to play what I didnt get to fully experience
what I missed out on from the 1st 2 games.

Game is abandoned. Don't expect mod support in the future.

didn't they just release a new class?

but anyway, there's not going to be mod support for TL3 because it's an online game.

TL2 is an online game (if you want it to be) whats your point?
At the very least they should add classes from the 1st 2 games as DLC (id buy it)
and i hope things like respec potions and expanded inventory could be added as well
(these things were added by mods in the past) as an optional thing one could buy/earn

TL2 is not an online game. It is a game where the logic runs locally and if you want to play multiplayer the local instances of all participants are synchronized.

TL3 is an online game where the game logic runs on a server and the multiplayer mode is the primary intended mode. The single player mode is a server emulation running on your own machine but it is still a server-client architecture which makes it much harder to mod and as you have to mod the server and client versions separately and if you actually mod it it would probably make your client incompatible with the multiplayer version which no company would willingly do because as pointed before the multiplayer mode is considered primary. Providing mod tools might actually also expose server vulnerabilities for the multiplayer mode which is again something no company would do. If we ever get mod tools that would probably mean that the multiplayer mode is shutting down.

As for the game being abandoned - it might be but we don't know. We did get a patch a month ago with a new class but that is the last patch Echtra, the original developer will ever work on because of their acquisition by Zynga and probably failure to achieve an agreement for long-term support of the game with Perfect World, the publisher of the game and IP owner of Torchlight. As a result the code and further development responsibilities had been handed over to Perfect World and they've said nothing of what their plans for the game are.

there is ONLINE multiplayer. Thats why you LOGIN to access ONLINE games and when you load your character it has 3 options. single player, LAN, and INTERNET meaning ONLINE.
If you want to play ONLINE you CAN. THEREFORE its an ONLINE game (if you want it to be)
