Hello guys.
Wanted to see if you can recommend me some games like Torchlight II (Finished) and Diablo III to play with a friend online.
PC gaming, not console..
Any ideas or recommendations?
Games like DOTA, Heroes of the Storm, League of Legends etc.. are NOT so much of my interest.
Starcraft is also not on my to play list atm.
Thank you in advance
Marvel Heroes - Free MMOARPG by David Brevik (Co-founder of Blizzard North)
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing - I have the first of the three, but haven't played it yet.
The Konami Code taught me everything I need to know about sex.
Titan's Quest and Grim Dawn are popular alternatives.
Din's Curse and Path of Exile are another pair.
Second Grim Dawn. Never played MP in it but it is supposed to be MP Torchlight II-ish.
What about the first Torchlight? Can't remember if it had MP or not though.
Grim Dawn is solid. I think that Path of Exile is free to play as well and they don't ram the microtransactions down your throat.

It does not have randomized levels but Victor Vran is also a solid choice, though it's less about classes and more about action.

Never played but was always curious about it. Made by the guy involved with the Horizons mmo.

Says it has up to 16 player co-op which sounds cool.
$32... Just don't know
Thank you guys!!!
Grim Dawn looks VERY interesting

Yeah, Grim Dawn is the best suggestion.
PoE is the other great suggestion, but it focuses more on theory crafting, really.
Edit: Don't see a mention of Victor Vran.
How did I live before digital distribution of old, cheap games?

Just seconding Marvel Heroes. Had a lot of fun with that one and it can be played free, or very cheaply. Might spring a few bucks for in-game storage, but you can get all the characters without spending money if you stick at it for a while.

The MMO part's kind of a misnomer too. There are other people playing one the same time maps as you, but you can play 95% of it ungrouped.

You play this? We gotta get together, those Aetherials and cultists will never know what hit'em.
All four of these are excellent recommendations.
I've been playing through Grim Dawn off and on the last month or so, only about halfway through but I really like it. Only complaint is that it really is unrelenting on the grimdark, which I can sometimes only take so much. I liked the setting and visuals of Titan Quest more (they're both developed by the same team) but Grim Dawn is a step up in mechanics.

I tried to go back to TitanQuest, which I really liked when it came out, but the controls really bothered me. You mean I have to actually click on stuff in my clicky ARPG? How gauche!
Grim Dawn is fantastic. Victor Vran is pretty great. Van Helsing is a ton of fun. Din's Curse is amazing.
Drox Operative is the best though.

Thank you guys... you now have me doubiting.. thing is.. me and a friend are 1st time fathers.. and well I like to play online games. MMOs... as much AS i hate to admit.. are not fitting for me ATM.. I used to love FFXIV but now it seems I am always behind of everything and I figured games like Diablo and Torchlight II would be a better fit.
I am leaning towards Grim Dawn.... PoE looks good as well but I prefer Grim
Ill go check out Marvel Heroes and Victor Vran..

I'm going to throw a suggestion out of left field. If you like games workshops universes then you might want to give Dawn of War 2 a try. You can play the campaign cooperatively, there is a last stand mode where you and a buddy beat back waves of baddies, and I always though it played more like an ARPG than an RTS. Plus it's an older game (2009 I think?) so you could probably pick it up on the cheap.

Here's another vote for Path of Exile. Amazing developer who has done microtransactions right (i.e. totally optional, do not impact game play). It's an amazingly deep ARPG with the best build diversity of any offering I've found to date. There's a new league starting on 9/2 (leagues are 2-3 months in length and have special mechanics not found in the normal game) - great time to hop in!

Omg.. so so so many games.. and such great suggestions.
I need more time to decide. My friend and I will start this saturday and we will try to play every wednesday.
Grim Dawn is the 1st candidate for now
Van heling looks amazing too
The Lone Dark Wolf
Titan's Quest is my favorite, and Path of Exile might have more free content than Diablo 3 at this point. WIth Titan's Quest though, just check the forums - there is one class combination that if you select it, you will be completely unable to defeat the main boss. Bottom line is make sure you have a ranged attack ability.
Eon Altar is a weird one, that I just dug into for the first time last night.
It's a co-op turn-based action-RPG. That you control with your phone.
The second screen is used not only as a controller, but also to deliver your character's speech, which you're encouraged to read aloud/role-play to your compatriots.
It's silly, trite and a tad clunky, but it's certainly novel.
You've never known true joy until you've shaken a lich stick at someone.
Well, would you look at that. Titan Quest just got updated on Steam to have Steamworks integration and a massive bugfix list. Many items mirror the fan patch notes.

I'm down, even though I haven't checked on this thread in a week.

I really need to jump back into POE. Been playing a tonne of Diablo lately, so could use a little variety (...)
Good time, too - new league and major patch starts tomorrow!

I'm not sure about Sacred 2 but Sacred Gold the first game might be up your ally. It is a loot whore game with lots of ways to customize your character. I think it runs for $5 or if it isn't that price now it will be during one of the many sells.
