Torchlight is basically Diablo 3 since some of the developers of the original Diablo and the composer were involved in it and if you compare the screenshots they look alike.

Only in Asia!
We were told a European release was due "very soon after Christmas".
Christmas in what year? It cannot be nearly out, seeing as none of the usual sites even have it listed under `forthcoming releases` or `pre-order`.
Apart from that Christmas reply to another thread, 1C have said nothing about the release for months, since the "watch this space" post in the stickies.
Very poor strategy, and dreadful lack of communication.

@Breadfan,

I agree totally! As I said, it's like the gameplan was to get the product out so the 50 diehards on here can tear it to pieces then maybe in 2010 it will be widely released. I sispect 2 or 3 more dumb mods will be released before we see the "legit" version show up in American stores. That's fine, I've got Torchlight coming in a few weeks. The marketing team for 1C should be shown the door for such a horrible roll out.

Wow....still no hard news on a US DVD release...Where are all the "admins", probably making foolish mods. Great job 1C, by all means, keep up the good work(NOT)!

I think most copies of KBTL that were sold, were done so via electronic means. The 4 or 5 people who actually need a 'hard copy' are simply the pariahs. No need to be so angry about it.

If you really want to get the hard copy, from a reputable site that sells legitimate copies and don't mind a bit of waiting as they have to ship it to America from New Zealand, then go here:

They send it by registered post so that if it gets lost in the mail, you're covered.

Opening wallets sound...

Call me old-fashioned but I just love owning the hard copies of all the games I have, box, manual and a nicely stamped DVD...
Those that say digital downloads are better don't live in Australia where download limits apply, there is no such thing as 'unlimited downloads' available in our ISPs, and besides even if you were to burn the downloaded game all you end up with is an ugly burned DVD with the name written with black marker.
I'd rather do other things online than worry about downloading several GBs of games and wasting (and paying for) that bandwith as well as the game itself.
And what if the net was to go down, Steam went broke...

There must be a worldwide shortage of KB:AP hard copies as even eBay Australia has none left, and sadly the NZ link above has now run out of stock!
Sorry folks, seems it was a case of 'first come, first served', they're rare as hen's teeth now, at least I am glad I got my copy.
