Quite hard and boring. You can play it once or two.

Cool adds more value to the main game and makes it more challanging. Must buy for hardcore bl2!

For those who love BL2 this is a must have! Mechromancer is so awesome to play ^.~ Mechromancer is one of the reason Í'm still playing :) Much better than Psycho IMO. And C'mon,who doesn't love to see shockwaves every second?

The game had a bad launch, but most of the bugs that made it unplayable are gone. Come back everyone repopulate the servers.

It is a fun and entertaining multiplayer game but a little buggy

In a nutshell: definitely not worth your money.

After playing every The Sims base game (1,2,3,4) and some of the expansions packs and especials, the only thing I can is: they lost their touch on this one.

1 - the loading screens are back
2 - no cars, bikes or whatever to buy/play
3 - graphics: going down the hill.
4 - extremely dull "neighborhoods" (you can chose out of 2, and those are pretty much boring both due to lack of buildings and things to interact and the loading screens - even to go from one loft to the one right beside it and that you can see it!
5 - bugs: two people same time same place, when sims go inside the house and there is a table near by, they sit and between every interaction (i.e flir, talk, etc) they get up the table and sit again. pretty much annoying and clearly a bug.

I am playing in a macbook latest model upgraded 13 inch, quad core I7, 8GB and Intel Iris. The graphics, even when the very best options were checked it wasn't all of that at all better. The game runs smooth with no frozen screens or operational bugs (even tho the 256 gb HD is basically with only 2,56 GB free and when I play telltale games I only have bugs and frozen screens!).

Finally, I would say again: game not worth neither the waiting time nor the price (what, 50 bucks for this???). I would go further and say that for a fact MAXIS has completely lost their touch and they can be happy that TS3 were and will always be their best game developed ever and throw the towel and stop producing others TS as they are completly going down the hill

My MacBook Pro, while old, can still withstand the needs of this game, yet it runs choppy at times, so if you have an older computer I recommend dropping the graphic levels.

I like this game, for what they've created, a visually interesting story world. However, what I have to admit is that I felt compelled on many occasions to just stop playing. But, I invested my money, and so I had to get my money's worth. Okay. What that entailed, then, is a singular play-through. I decided early on that, if I were to stop playing the game, it was unlikely that I would pick it up again.

However, in my attempts to finish the game in one sitting, I must have triggered a bug of some kind. The game, once you get through the intro levels, sets you up in a hub world with 11 doors linked to memories. Okay. Easy enough. It opens 4 memories for you, you can play that in any order, which I like - you're not forced into a specifically linear story. After the first 4 it unlocks another 4 memories. Cool. So I did the first of these four, choosing the first in the row (as they are given to you in such a way as choose 1, 2, 3, or 4, and I chose 1). After which I looked at my options, and continued on with me numerically ascending choice, being the "next" door.

What happened at the end of that memory is simply poor programming, or so I have to assume, and I am somewhat hoping for a patch. At the completion of the "Beach" memory, I had the game reset to the point where I had just entered the hub, meaning I would need to redo all the first 4 memories to get back to where I was. When I tested this theory, by doing the shortest, easiest, and most tedious of the first 4 (the "street" memory), the end resulted in the exact same thing, a reset to the beginning of the hub.

Out of frustration, I left the game to the menu, as I had done earlier often to get my graphic settings to a happy place, only, as earlier I had been presented with a "continue" option, now I had only the option to start a new game. My progress had apparently been lost. So I quit the game. This took forever, and I eventually force quit the program (again, old MacBook, potentially the problem here).

At this point, I haven't tried running the game again, and I don't know if I will.

While the story is compelling and the game relatively interesting as a whole, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

It's billed as a horror. It's not a horror. Things jump out at rare times. A creepy girl with glowing eyes lurks around. Maybe, if the game doesn't go screwy on you, you can get to the "Circus" level, as the video trailer depicts briefly, and maybe then they use clowns in a frightening way, but other than that possibility, the game is not a horror.

The Mac Game Store's Pros:

Gorgeous visual style: I won't argue completely. They could have done better, but I think they must have done pretty good with what they had, and I cannot fault them here. The main problem is the word "gorgeous." If you are willing to give the game a chance, give it a chance for the story, not the graphics.

Intriguing story-line: I whole-heartedly agree, though the game play doesn't draw me in enough to warrant more than one session to play-out the entire storyline.

34 Explorable environments: No argument, however some are very small, not very interesting, and all you're required to do is grab a glowing cube. There may be something to look at as well, but nothing significant. Some of the levels are quite interesting, like the childhood level where you are small in a child's playroom, but its all dark and menacing (still not horror enough. No sense of dread or a feeling of being hunted or anything to make it other than a dark room. The sound effects do help a little, and I give them that, but not beyond the quality of "creepy").

Dynamic atmospheric soundtrack: Well, I just mentioned the sound effects briefly, but I didn't say anything about the footsteps (or foley, for those in the know, not that I am). The footsteps leave me wanting just a little more, but not to be discouraged by. The music is ambient and appropriate, so I am willing to give the person describing the game to us credit for this one truth.

Supports the Welsh Language: I didn't test this, so let's give that guy credit for a second truth.

I give the game 3 stars, despite my failings at fully enjoying the game, because I want to give the creators credit for having done something creative, interesting, and, at times, fun. The story is really the drawing factor, which you get in bits and pieces through rubber duckies (yes, you heard me correctly, and no it's not ridiculous enough) and through animated (i.e., cartoony) story fragments at the end of each memory segment. Despite the minimalist approach to the story, I began to get really quite intrigued the further I got and, sadly, most of all at the point where the game went awry.

Be cautious.

Buy it if you must, but be very very careful about whether you really want to spend the money. If you do, you're basically giving the money away for free, and, while I have found peace with that in my support of a growing developer and people who put obvious effort into a game that I can't bring myself to play again, you might not be so happy with you're expenditure.

Love this game. The first was great and this did not disappoint either

I rarely stick with a sequence of games but this was interesting enough to lure me in.

Torchlight II is a great update to a fun and easy to play game that requires little user thought. Just hack and slash. The intuitive play is a perfect remedy if you are tired of trying to figure out the large number of overly complex games that require hours of study.
