And somehow this will be more fun to play than Torchlight 3
Yay!
Neat.
Holy shit, I did not expect to see THIS here! Looks like yet another de-steamed game series added to the pile! :D

Fonzer: Never seen this game before. Any opinions about it?
Yeah, it plays exactly like the torchlight series...

I would hazard to guess that this is the very game that inspired that series!

Really, thank you GOG! =)

Breja: Honestly, at least as far as graphics go, it kinda looks like crap even for a game from 2005. And yet it also looks like it might be fun regardless...
Hi! :)

Honestly, it's a really fun title! (as I recall) :P
If you didn't get a chance to play it back in the day, it's a good opportunity to do so now that it's on discount!

I checked some info and seen a video about Fate review.
Could play the first Torchlight since i never played it either..
At first I thought it was Fate - Gates of Dawn with excitement building up....then I remembered that the game was an Amiga game.

Nevertheless, nice release.

Well, looks like you have 2 game series to try out, you're in a single town with a multi-leveled dungeon that you explore and you can have a companion to help as well as an in-town storage box to stash your loot!

I just described both game series, btw! :)
This is a very nice surprise! And also a must for fans of the genre, so...complete collection, here i come!

:)

Edit: BTW, apparently the game lacks all the original languages but you can go to \LANG folder and rename your own language .dll to "en-US.dll" (for english UK, German, Spanish, French or Italian)

(Just tested on The Traitor Soul)

Edit2: the "only" problem is that game crashes when starting the game, after intros on Win10. On Win7 it works, though :S

Hope the question is clear, but does this game have real builds (e.g. like Diablo 2 or Grim Dawn), or do you just pick a class and ramp up what you would expect (e.g. like Darkstone)?

That's what happens when you have the creator of Fate (Travis Baldree) go on to create Torchlight. ;) And then went on to create Rebel Galaxy and Rebel Galaxy Outlaw? Yeah, weird trajectory.

Yeah, it is the same person, haha. You know, there are always ups and downs in real life :)

I quite enjoyed FATE when I played it...5-10 years ago? I played it through on one character and messed around on a few others. Traitor Soul has lived on my WL ever since, but it almost never goes on sale, so perhaps this is the moment!

I've never seen a "builds guide" for this series if your question is whether certain builds are more optimal than others, but there is a lot of flex in how you level up your attributes and skill points. Charm magic + Spear? Go for it! Does it suck? IDK.

Here's a screenshot (via youtube) of what the level up page from F:TS looks like: https://youtu.be/T2RtGApzgxQ?t=1933

My recollection is that tanky pet builds were much easier than other things I tried, but that's as much as I recall.

Huh, TIL... :D

And yeah, that is a weird trajectory indeed! I have the 1st Rebel Galaxy, yet I read mixed reviews of the second one, I may get it when the discount is deep enough...

EDIT: A warning for those that have Fate, remember to backup your saves if you ever uninstall the game as your save files will be deleted along with the uninstallation of the game!
