| If you dig Torchlight II

You should check out the indie, Krater. It's not AAA polished, but pretty good gameplay from what I've seen so far. I need to read up on the crafting options though. That seems like it would be a very cool part of the game, to create new custom weapons and effects. It's basically the same general idea as Torchlight II, 3rd person view, lots of action. But it's more RPG'ier than Torchlight I think. You have a squad of guys (one tank, one healer, one ranged guy) to start, and I think you can hire new goons to replace ones you've got, so you can get all different kinds of mixes of characters. The controls are intuitive, and each character has two quick slots for their primary actions / effects (Keys 1-6). As you level up and explore, you find upgrade modules, boost modules, etc.. and you basically, well, surgically drill them into the character lol. Each one has specific bonuses (defense, strength, stamina, attack, etc etc).

Unrelated, the FTL Black Box writing project just went over 1500 views today, in less than a week. Crazy. lol. The GOOD news is, I've completed the mission and the logging part is over, now I just have to proofread and upload each episode.
