Torchlight: Infinite Reviews

by Faulkenstrom

Avid player of ARPGs. this app Infinite is fun for what it sets out to achieve. I won’t comment on the monetization model as it has already been discussed. I will note that I have spent money on the game.

What is awful however, is the customer service. After experiencing a bug that crashed my game, I can no longer load my character without the game crashing. I leveraged both the game’s ticket system and submitted a bug report on the game discord. Neither received appropriate responses. The ticket system told me to report it on discord or use the in-game customer service system. How could I use the in-game system if my character is inaccessible? There is literally no other way to reach out to the devs outside of reviewing or social media. I haven’t been able to play the game for nearly three days now.

The game is admittedly in open beta. I’m not faulting the development team for game bugs, but you should be having an open dialogue with your players on how to rectify issues.

since the last update i played that was im trial, i have crashed repeatedly, i guess my device is unplayable, im going to let it charge and not play while charging even though it isn't over heating, if I don't come back and delete this, its because its still unplayable. update: still not working and it wont download on my galaxy s8 anymore, it crashes and freezes in the same spot. Maybe if i upgrade my devices to newer models, but im not going to pay 600$ to play a f2p mobile game. Beta worked great, hardly crashed, smoothest game i ever played, clearly just too much load for any device that isn't brand new. Wonder how much apple and google paid them to force players into buying new devices.

Resistances capped at 60%, was 100+ last season. Many defensive skills gone or super nerfed, many items nerfed, collection cards nerfed to useless & loss 45 cards from last season & no compensation. They won’t let you play your way, my favorite frostbite chain lighting nerfed into the ground lvl 95 worthless now. They want you to purchase their new seasonal toon. To craft a medium item cost 100FE (Flame Elemenium) top currency in game. These drop a lot in T7+ but in larger amounts in T8, but u will need about 10billion Dps & 60% resistance capped. I make about 10FE every 3days if I’m lucky. Started season with 800+ revival tokens down to last 125. Each season gets stupid nerfed making it impossible to see end game, bring back season 1 when it was fun now a dizzying hassle P2W dumpster fire.

S5, still bad game; why, u can only see end game by going super fast & pay for season pass to get the loot bot cause if u try to play a slow cautious style u get mobbed & crushed. Top game currency drop rate is a joke again. Best stuff drops at T8 endgame, to survive it u need at least 25B Dps +60 resistances, the auction house items u need for your toon avg 2k FE. Each season gets worst.. have 50+ revival tokens left. If u don’t have any u loose about 5-12% progress…

That game was not good. Total cash grab. Why did you reskin it and slap “this app” on it? Does this company have any good ideas or are they only interested in money? Well, it only takes looking at the spin wheels in their games to find that answer ($25+ for a skin….)! I mean they made it to where you have to lvl up your shooter in T3… do you know how gimped that makes you starting out? Same in Flash party. They will build any game to entice you to spend money, but beware if you need customer service. Not much more than 1 sentence replies. Your customers on flash party are begging for content In the social tab I’ve noticed. Like why is there more characters on T3 than flash when flash has been out longer? I’m just not sure about this companies priorities.

Sadly, I like this game but have reached the point where I am fed up with one little thing. Well, it turned out not to be so little after all. The lack of controller support just kills this game or to put it more accurately gets you killed. Over and over again. My finger either slips or the iPad stops sensing my finger just long enough for that boss to kill me, while I cannot move.

Even Diablo Immortal, your direct competition and worse rated game of all time, has controller support. Even they could realize how important it would be for a game like this and the simple fact, people do not like dying in games due to circumstances beyond their control. In this game you have no real control, when it is really needed.

Thus, as much as I like the game, I will not be around long enough to support it because I am simply tired of dying due to a lack of control. If I ever find out you actually add controller support, I would come back and likely spend money. The real problem is, I probably will never find out. Good luck with your game!

Because they somehow thought it was a good idea to ruin their franchise with Genshin prices to gacha for minions with hugely diluted loot pools. And releasing an “online” game with no co op, no pvp, no guilds etc. Beta is irrelevant bc the cash shop is in full effect. Priorities. Why would anyone stick around, let alone spend money, when they can’t play with anyone else? Really unfortunate to see this IP stoop so low as to think they’ve created a game deserving of this price model without having any of the social features in place. Actual clownery. But hey it’s not as bad as Diablo Immortal so some gambling addicts will probably be happy. For everyone else - this is a cash grab.

by NoWhere2007

This game is very fun I have been wanting to play a game like this forever. But you should be able to keep all the loot you have on the new character you have. Or at least be able to level up in the battle pass with your old character. I stopped playing because I made a new character for the season hoping I would still have all my loot, but it starts you over and I have to play through the campaign which is very boring after already beating it. I just wanted to fight the new boss for the season but I am forced to play through the campaign just to get high enough level. Also no multiplayer this game needs it. Why couldn’t you do like an open world. Instead of having the boys running around make them into actual players.

by Apolesse

I’m a lifetime core gamer and was looking forward to this title but so far it has left me feeling quite deflated.

The movement control (D pad) is unreliable and can very suddenly change locations which during a boss fight leaves you standing in the fire. In a twitch reaction and skill based game that is enough to sink it right there.

Dialogue that happens during combat frequently covers up the skill buttons. Ugh only put a skill you don’t want in the two farthest left positions. You may not be able to use them sometimes.

The developers desperately need to add tags on skills to indicate if they are affected by weapon dps or not AND if it is a spammable. I like experimenting a lot but every good experiment starts with good data.

I gave it a 3 in the hope it will grow, without potential for growth it would be a 2. Such promise! Such disappointment.

Also a PS version would rock for big screen fun. I could see myself really getting into this but there are just too many boundaries right now.

by Degrastic

I enjoyed the game a bit, but the lack of controller support really puts me off. I don’t enjoy long sessions of screen controls so I haven’t played as much as I would have otherwise.

As far as monetization, it’s not terrible. If anything though, the battle pass should be cheaper. $15+ is a bit steep for what you get and you can’t earn currency to buy the next one. In games like CoD Mobile and Fortnite, you can pay for one pass and earn the next for free if you play a lot and do the challenges. This game lacks that feature, so you miss out on the feeling of progression that keeps you coming back to the game.

by Hieronymous Prime

I agree with most of the good reviews & I really enjoy this game! However, I'd enjoy it more & be willing to give this game 5 stars if controller compatibility was added. PS4 controllers have been able to BT to iPhones since iOS13 years ago! This game runs great on my iPhone 12, but with the display always running & eating up battery, of course my phone screen gets hot. I would love to be able to broadcast my live gameplay to my tv & play with a compatible controller so I'm not burning my fingertips after completing one quest. I might switch to playing on my tablet, which can manage the overheating display problem, but then that kind of defeats the 'mobile game that can fit in your pocket' appeal.

by Bsns Sn

I’m enjoying the experience so far. The build diversity definitely is there, but I don’t think the combat and the controls are not quite polished as i expect. There are times where I place down an ability, it would go to the wrong or even the opposite direction that is meant to be placed. The movements are also not quite polished as my character doesn’t necessarily move or turn smooth. Like there is a bit of a lag when m character moves.

With that being said, if the developers takes a bit more time polishing the things i listed, it would definitely have a great impact for the game.

Best of luck.

I don’t normally write reviews for games, but this app Infinite is a wonderful addition to the franchise. I downloaded the game as a way to kill time as there are large chunks of downtime at my job. It has not only scratched that itch of a time waster but also is greatly enjoyable and the dev crew did a wonderful job with the progression and how easy it is to stop playing and pick up again (practically) right where you left off.

People are apparently complaining about the game being p2w but since I don’t pvp I’m not sure why I should care. Game drops loot frequently and being a mobile game it is dumbed down into dmg and survival stats that make it simple to gear up quickly.

Please keep up the good work dev team!

The reason it’s not 5/5 is because inventory management. Why do I need to destroy so often between vendors. If a few more were sprinkled in or bags were default slight larger at the beginning I would be happier but I also know that the game has to leave something desired to have people spend money.

by Xro47

Great game haven’t a played a mobile game this fun in a while however I just wish there were more customization to your character. I was thinking you should be able to see the armor pieces and gear you pick up instead of just having skins. There should be skins for head chest Legs and hands not just full outfits. Basically make it where each character can be unique. Also wouldn’t mine making it to where any character can be male or female instead certain characters being male and certain being female. Also more importantly can we get some type of pvp or raids, forgive me if they already in the game and I just haven’t got that far but if that’s not the case. We should have clans and clan wars and pvp or pve + pvp. Just a lot of multiplayer content. Other than that the game is great I would rate it 3.5 but I only see 3 and 4 so I’m going to give it a 4.

by Bobofettechini

So I had some issues on day 1. They have now been fixed so thank you devs for that. The game is fun. Feels like a this app game. Drops are a little to frequent and aren’t items that help or even progress your character. I rated it 4/5 stars only because there weren’t supposed to be P2W features but when you log in every time, it pops up with these buy packs and whatnot. I’m not complaining about the battle pass, because those are more of challenges to complete in a time frame for more rewards. But buying packs is a bit ridiculous. Makes me feel like this game may be headed for Diablo Immortal P2W mechanics. Which disappoints me a lot.

by CeleryStalkR

So I’m level 30 (out of 80 I think) on 3 different characters. I really enjoy the gameplay, the looks, the story. I enjoy them a lot. That being said, let me talk more about the negatives (and realize that I still gave it 4 stars so these aren’t game ruining). First of all, a lot of stuff isn’t explained well so I’m having to internet research and really figure a lot of stuff out on my own. Like what stats or gear a character should be wearing. How some things work together. Etc. Really there needs to be more comprehensive explanations of things. Second, I don’t like how the only gear that effects your appearance is your weapon/shield unless you purchase total appearance costumes. Gear should change how you look. My final complaint is that (I’m playing in English) the language feels a bit clunky. I have 3 kids and play with sound off so I read the dialogue and it feels like it was written by a non English speaker. Not enough to ruin it, just feels weird to me. Other than those things, I really like it and plan to keep playing for sure.

Full disclaimer, I recently downloaded this game, and my review may change over time after the honeymoon phase. I also haven’t played any other this app game but 2, (I mainly played the FATE series).

This game is super fun, and is surprisingly not visibly cash-grab oriented. There is a gacha element but it isn’t the main part of the game.

The combat is fun, the loot collecting is fun, the story is eh. It seems possible to unlock new classes without spending over time if you actually play the game.

That being said, some aspects of the game are confusing, there are tutorials ingame, but I don’t find them too helpful. The crafting system was the main confusion, but I did figure that out after a google search.

The graphics ingame are fun, but the menus are a bit clunky and seem a bit cheap-looking (shop UI, with the cards that say “Stuff”, or “Diamonds” in the background look dumb), this isn’t a major criticism, but it is noticable.

by Dochski

The game is fun and the end game has a lot of layers. The crafting is fairly deep and satisfying, though I would like to see an ember to remove affixes to make found items more valuable for crafting. Some sort of mechanic to make leveling alts quicker would be nice too. Next and most importantly I would like to see better support for pc. The pc version seems to be a port from mobile and options for hot keys to help crafting and search for talents etc would be really helpful. Lastly, the hero list, would be better if you could see full builds to include all skill setups and talents. It would help newer players find builds to follow and close the gap with the more hardcore players.

by Thebirdman7

I really liked the game. The graphics are good and there are plenty of ways to do character builds. If you like tweaking your character, this game is for you. My experience was that my character was powerful, but I rarely found anything better than what I had and it was just a never ending grind to try to get better gear which rarely showed up. The drops are just too plentiful. Dealing with it all became cumbersome and tedious.

by Ian Armour

The gameplay itself is solid, a great PoE lite experience however no controller support on release is a huge miss by the developer even if they intend to implement it at some point. I would love to see the developer communicate the release date of this feature as without it the game won’t really be a great mobile experience.

Also pact spirits are pay to win something the developer communicated they wouldn’t do. On discord and their community posts it plays down the importance of pact spirits however practically speaking they contain large amounts of player power and need to be toned down or removed (never going to happen).

The rest of the monetization is mostly fine outside of this, game seems fun and the seasonal mechanic is great.

TL;DR: Solid gameplay loop but rebalance pact spirits and add controller support as well as 120hz support ASAP.

by Ollie Rambo

Historically the game has always been multiplayer and cooperative.

The fact that this game did not release with multiple players is honestly something that does not cater to its origins from this app 2 and I cannot consider it a successful game. I am playing this game honestly so that one day I can play it with friends together.

I will change my review once we get multiplayer.

For the remainder, it is a good game that I do like quite a bit. I still have not plaid it sufficiently to know if I will dislike the monetary systems in place for the game, but it feels good for now.

One thing I would like would be the achievement systems to be better in place. Something very good that PC this app achievements have is steam, so a browser for things would be great where you have digital collectibles and achievements to reach a goal rather than just progressive achievements.

by ReKliSMiNd

I love this game ! When Diablo Immortal came out I was so excited only to be greatly let down and disappointed with how the game actually turned out and how much it is P2W and then this app came out and it is in so many ways everything I was hoping for in Diablo Immortal and so much more. I love the talent system and the mechanics for the skills and the pacts and all of it. The only thing that is a little frustrating is that there’s quite a few things that aren’t explained very well, like the corrupted items and that purple diamond gauge that fills up in the middle at the bottom of the screen. What’s that do, aside from summoning a bunch of enemies for me to kill ?

Anyways over all and amazing game that I look forward to playing every day.

by GarboJoe

Ignore the reviews you see about not starting. People downloaded the game a day early, not realizing it wasn’t OUT till the next day. So of course you have idiots making 1 star reviews about it not working. You have idiots giving 1 star reviews because there isn’t controller setup port YET. Which they never said would be out YET. But it’s literally in progress. Then it’s DEFINITELY not pay to win. The game runs better with less lag and glitches than when Diablo Immortal came out. You don’t have stuff constantly popping up saying “buy this for 400x value NOW”… This game is definitely more of an RPG hack and slash. Great got honestly and touch controls feel great and love the talent and skill customization of this game. Feels great how you can change your character like playing POE almost.

by JayWilsonLoser

Forget D4. This game has a lot more to offer. If you have played PoE, then you can find many aspects of it in this game, only with stellar quality of life. The only Gacha in the game is the pets, and the ones that you get for FREE are actually extremely good. You can do all content easily wothout spending a dime, including STASH TABS. Yes you unlock stash tabs fairly easily in this game imo and for free as well. PoE is one if my favorite ARPG’s of all time, but to be honest, after all of the QoL that this game has, I’ve not played PoE in awhile because I’m too busy enjoying this one. The crafting in this game is also a lot more deterministic. It use to be kind of too easy to craft, but the new system they have in place is a lot better imo. If you don’t check out this free gameplay, then you are missing out on 100’s of hours of one of the best arpgs ever. I’ve played D2, D2R, D3, LE, PoE, D4 Beta, Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, etc. This is probably one of the best I’ve played tbh. God Bless Brevik boys, and God Bless the USA.

If you like games like Path of Exile and Diablo 3 you will like this game. It is very similar to them, and also is very reminiscent of the borderland games in vibe and style. To boot it is also free to play and accessible on both mobile and computer

To address anyone that may be wondering how the monetization is - it’s of my objective opinion very fair. I’ve not felt the need to buy anything, and have not been overly prodded to buy something while playing, this is with me approaching end game on my first character (T7 and level 88ish). All pets I have, have been purchased with free currency and to be honest have not made a huge notable different in game play.

I will say I spent as good amount of money getting the cosemetics I wanted for my berserker (the costume specifically) as it’s on a chance system to get specific items which kind of bummed me out - would rather have paid 15 bucks the. Have to blow 50 to get through the entire “chance” system to get what I wanted but it is what it is, and this in no way impacts the game play. And the developers have to make money to keep giving us more in this game which I am happy to pay a bit in to get more!

All in all this game is great and I can’t recommend it enough!

If you took the time to read this far, thank you for giving my review a read!

This would be a fun game but unless I am on a wifi I keep getting a network connection failure prompt when trying to load the game! It’s very frustrating, especially when I am trying to play the game when I am not at home! Please fix this issue!!

Update: the connection issues have been fixed and I am enjoying playing this game! The only thing I would ask is if the drops in game would match up with the level of the character playing! I’ve had weapons that I have been playing with since early game and everything that drops doesn’t help to increase anything! Even the “rarer” weapons that drop!

by RussianBute

Devs, you deserve a standing ovation! You released this game shortly after Diablo Immortal, which is hard to compete against, and simply put out a game far superior to immortal in every aspect! Thanks for keeping the genre alive!

Now I’ve played two separate characters. One’s level 79 and the other 65, so I’ve put some time into this game and will be playing this game for the foreseeable future. The skill system is very similar to Path of Exiles which is one of my favorites. Excellent job on that. The loot system is everything immortal lacked. You want to focus on elemental damage? Farm prefixes with Elemental. Raw damage? Again, prefixes that surround it. A balanced tank? Prefixes… outstanding job on the loot system.

End game could use some work, but we were given a full game that exceeded my expectations and for the people complaining this is P2W! I’m sorry, but this game is by far the best rpg ever released on mobile and is far from P2W. Play immortal for the true meaning of P2W. Again, thank you devs for the hard work and creating this masterpiece. You guys deserve the recognition. Ohh and avoid putting PvP into the game. That’s when the concept of P2W comes in.

by Indigrowth47

8/10 the progression system feels really good and this feels very similar to the games on console with its taste of massive multiplayer in it too. I think the world could use more work for immersion as every conversation starts and ends quickly and I don’t know much if anything about any characters in the game. However the boss fights are engaging for what it’s worth and I’m eager to see what else could come from the main installment of story and quests in the game. From my understanding the events are pretty straightforward, I think you guys should try to be more liberal with them and try engaging in cross over events like other app games do. Even if you’re crossing with something like Bravery Default they have a legacy and have been a phone game for a while and could lead to stronger avenues and cross overs in the future. It would also make me feel like spending real money on the game if the events held a little more weight/sparkle if you know what I mean. It shouldn’t make us stronger but it could be a lot cooler.

If you enjoy top down arpg Diablo type of grind Try this app infinite! Ignore all the negative reviews saying it’s pay to win and giving it one star. Hate to win doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad game. Gentian impact has been the number one mobile game for years and it’s the most pay to win game aside from Diablo immoral*…the pc steam app is smooth and tap tap & xD did a great job (imo)w/a near seamless port. Overall you can easily max out F2P and get 100+ hours of fun grinding endgame (netherrealm) for free, climbing the ladder of hero ranking and intricate customization! Don’t let the cell shaded/cartoon like gfx fool you, this game is similar to lost ark,Tower of fantasy, or poe. I have 100+ hours via pc/steam without spending anything..The micro transactions are there but not needed. This style of cross platform(w/micro transaction)but FREE type of game is the future-with titles like diablo and now this app to show the success. Pay to win and cross platform does not necessarily mean bad game, it looks like people are having trouble adapting to that. The “old school gamer” mindset has created the virtual world you spend hours grinding via your pc to the smartphone in your pocket. The reality is, The evolution of MMO/RPG gaming has advanced to this ultra-accessible/quality point which in turn is intimidating “real gaming(pc)” genre, which is simply not true.

I’ve played all the this app games and a lot of others like it. For me, it’s taken some time (a couple days now) to figure out everything about this game. There is a lot to it and a few differences. But in the end, it’s really fun.

If you enjoy any games like this app, Diablo, etc.. you will most likely enjoy this. Give it a try.

Most impressive though, is the game truly is not pay to win. They did it right.

by LethargicAthlete

UI could be better and there’s a lot of quality of life changes that can be made that would improve it tremendously. Diablo/Path of exile clone, that you can play from the computer then hop off go to the couch and start using the same account & char from your phone. Gameplays been smooth & crafts a breeze to understand and make nice items with. 18 legendary pack spirits tho that can go to lvl 6.. and some give additional drops of fuel/mats.
