Pikachu Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 Read an IGN tweet that stated that several ex-Diablo developers are working on the game. Not sure about any Runic developers signing on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote IGN sat down to chat with Max Schaefer, CEO of Echtra Games, the studio behind Torchlight Frontiers. A specialist in action RPGs, he’s a founding member of Blizzard North and a contributor to Diablo, Diablo II, Hellgate: London, and the Torchlight series. http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/08/09/torchlight-frontiers-to-double-down-on-pets-co-op-play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew Max Schaefer had left Runic a couple of years ago to start up a new studio. With Runic only working on Hob, I assumed Torchlight was dead at that point. Really interesting to see Max now working on Torchlight at a new studio. Now that I know Max is involved, I'm considerable more hyped.

AshsToAshs Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 New interview with Max Schaefer goes over the gameplay, pets, and player houseing https://www.mmorpg.com/torchlight-frontiers/interviews/max-schaefer-on-housing-pets-progression-and-more-1000012964 This bit on player housing i thought was pretty interesting: Quote That’s right, as we stated before, Torchlight Frontiers has a housing system that Echtra is calling Forts... "A cool thing we do is take your forts and put them in the world randomly for other players to see. And they can come up to your fort and say ‘He’s got an enchanting vendor, I can use him just like an enchanting vendor in the town, and I will pay a fee to get my item enchanted.’ And if it’s your fort, you get the fee.” In short, Max wants to make sure that players are “incentivised to make a cool fort with lots of utilities, not just for yourself but for other players too.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share Posted December 6, 2018 Quote The Dusk Mage is the star of the newest trailer for Torchlight Frontiers, Echtra Games’ upcoming entry in the ARPG series. The Dusk Mage hero class harnesses the power of light and dark energy to carry out a wide array of devastating magical attacks. Watch the Dusk Mage balance these opposing magical forces to blast through hordes of enemies in Torchlight Frontiers’ new class reveal trailer!

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 The game will no longer be free to play There will not be a real money shop (as far as I can tell - they're taking it out with their next build) There will be both and online and offline modes, so no internet connection will be required It's being moved onto Steam so you can buy it there (eventually) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
