Been playing a bit of Torchlight 2. Actually enjoy it quite a bit. Tried a melee embermage build that didn't work out so great as I got closer to 50 (but was fine up until about 45). Probably I put points into the wrong things. Also, I was using a 2h staff and not a wand/shield. Dual wield wand embermage is pretty awesome though.
I got to about 20 with each class just to see what they were and found myself really liking the engineer tank build. That shield slam is some fun shit.
*the game has a great Diablo 2 feel to it in a lot of ways. And I know its because they have some of the Blizzard North peeps working there. But you can pretty much make just about anything viable with the right gear and build apparently. Which I think is the most fun in any game like this - playing the character you want to play.
