sylar666: In every aspect , imho Torchlight is an amazing ARPG everyone who likes the genre must play, and no, not everyone has picked it for free on all the times it had been.
skeletonbow: It never ceases to amaze me all the people who say "everyone already has that game" for Torchlight or any other particular game that GOG or somewhere else has given away in a freebie, because in order for that to be true, every single person on Earth would have to be a GOG customer already and GOG by definition could never ever get any more new customers because they both had every possible customer already, and every single customer either bought or received the freebie game previously. It's really silly. :)
GOG could do an all day Torchlight freebie promo every Saturday for the next 3 years and the day after they stopped doing it, at least one if not 100 people would join the GOG website as a new customer having never heard of GOG before at all and say "Torchlight? Oh that looks cool, damn just my luck I joined up the day they stopped giving it away for free" :)
The point is, the first time Torchlight went free they still had the old gifting system up. With that you could get an unlimited number of free gift codes. People who knew that stocked up big time for future giveaways and the codes from back then were still handed out for free in the forum for years after that. I'm sure there are still codes from that time around.
Today when GOG gives away a game they disable the game card temporarily so you can not do that any more. Instead you get a link to a gift page that can be used only once per account that will add the game to your account if you don't have it or send you a gift code if you do.
