A New Torchlight game Announced - Torchlight Frontiers

Max Schaefer and much of the original team, which is many of the same people that build Diablo 1, are working on a new Torchlight game. It is going to be a "shared, persistent and dynamically generated world" so I am guessing something like Path of Exile in concept? I really liked the first two games, and was disappointed when I heard that Runic Games had been disbanded.

Anyway, here is the trailer:


 
Woohoo! That is good news.

Torchlight wasn't awesome but it was a solid, worthy game of my time.
 
This could be a bit of fun, but there is one thing that this will likely lack that I think made Torchlight fun: mods. I used to play some of the fan-made classes back in the original games, and they were fun.
 
Torchlight was as good, if not better than Diablo III. It was very hackable though. I kept scumming my stash save to dupe items and made myself too powerful so that resulted in me getting burned out quickly and not finishing the game. Otherwise it was awesome.

Looking forward to Frontiers.
