Normally I’m fine with a bit of a grind for things. Rep, a quest chain, maybe crafting, but this… Torghast is a whole nother level of grind. It’s the exact same thing, over and over and over and over and over and over…
The rooms are all the same, the enemies are all the same, the powers are somewhat cool, but locked behind rng so you can’t really plan with them
Can we get some kind of variety? Make a room look like Ardenweald or something, I don’t care.
It’s just so bloody boring
Oh and locking a core expansion feature behind something this boring is just rude. I understand there needs to be a grind of some sort but come on, this is what you picked? I fall asleep trying to do this because it’s so freaking repetitive
I havent done torghast since I got my rank 3 legendary. The slight power increase to r4 is not worth my time(to those who think it is great! do what you think is worth your time bro!)
I wouldn’t say I hate it, but I definitely lost interest in it after the novelty wore off, so like… one run. As someone who has no desire to do M+, it’s disappointing they didn’t turn this into an alternative. I could have gotten into Torghast if they added at least a chance of loot to drop off layer bosses once per day/per run. Maybe make rares actually rarer but give them a small chance to drop something too. As it is now, they tried to rip off Rogue-Likes/Lites without one of the core elements of the genre… gear.
Two or three? I’m not joking or trying to be mean, but I’ll admit it’s gone back and forth a bit.
I soured on it really quickly when I realized it wasn’t very rewarding, and when I realized that it didn’t hand out nearly as many amazing and fun powers as was implied to be part of the appeal of the mode (at least for some classes, it’s weirdly inconsistent about this).
Once they evened out the difficulty (and I started to get better gear), I warmed up to it a lot more, but I still don’t really touch it if I don’t have to. I only touched Twisting Corridors for the first quest, for instance. Way too much time and effort to put into something that could end up just being a literal waste of a few hours.
I’m still happy running them so I’ll let you know when it happens.
Since I got all my real legendaries done I think I’m going to make a silly Torghast one next just for fun, the ghost sounds neat for group weekly runs.
