Pros
Pro Incentive to replay due to limited respec system
Much of leveling up is permanent, which not only gives a sense of connection to ones built characters but also means there is a large incentive to replay to make different builds.
Pro Elaborate loot system
Loot in Torchlight II is varied and dependent on a wide array of circumstances. There are so many variables that come into play as to what a player will find that makes searching out better and better items a game in and of itself.
Pro Varied level design
Unlike the first title there are many areas to see in the game that all have different looks. Plus there are large open ares as well as close quarter caverns.
Pro Works on different OS's: Linux/Mac/Win
Torchlight II is a multi-platform game that works on OSX, Linux and Windows. Which is great for users who dual-boot as the game can be played no matter what OS is booted at the time.
Pro Well implemented and fun action-RPG combat
Torchlight 2 has all the typical RPG mechanics such as classes, loot, skill trees etc. However all the little touches and details come together to make playing the game really fun and a great balance between depth/complexity and being able to get started killing hordes of monsters. Killing monsters is very satisfying and the loot system keeps things very interesting without feeling like you're just grinding for better items.
Pro Well implemented co-op
You can team up with up to 5 other plays to take on the hordes together. There is also a PvP mode if you'd rather kill your friends instead of team up with them.
Pro Runs well even on weaker hardware
Pro Engaging and motivated community
Teeworlds' one-of-a-kind community is the thing keeping the game alive. Be it the community servers or maps or all the other innovative content.
Pro Easy to pick up but hard to master
You will never stop learning new tricks while playing Teeworlds, no matter how long you play. At the same time it's easy for new players to just pick it up and have a blast.
Pro Available from Steam and in Linux distributions
So it's easy to play cross-platform with friends.
Pro Tons of mods and maps
Pro Very fun and engaging gameplay
Even at relatively low skill levels the game is a lot of fun - think Worms in Realtime! The antics you can get up to while "hooking" yourself around maps is just silly :P.
Pro Very pretty
Pro Very intuitive
Easy to install and use.
Pro Usually populated servers
Cons
Con Lacking in story
The characters are flat and the overall story is pretty boring/standard. While not unexpected for such a game it would have been nice to have something other than loot driving advancement in the game.
Con Limited respec system
Much like an old school dungeon crawler, there is little to no useful respec system here. You can respec the last three skill points used on a character, but that is it. This tends to lead towards plenty of skills in the skilltree that ended up going nowhere, which are just wasted points. Unless you know specifically where you will be putting each and every skill point for your build beforehand, no respec may have an impact on making a perfect build.
Con Weird net-code
Even though the game is playable without issues and characters move like they should, they don't register enemies' mouse movements really well. Because of that, it's hard to tell apart who is a spinbotter and who's a legit pro player.
