Opening/closing windows, however, used the settings that I had entered in Windows. ignored the Windows settings and used the settings the mouse came with. So without changing any settings, the movement and item interaction etc. is still switched and as far as I know, there was no way to change that. Moving items from my inventory to that of my pet, learning spells, etc. I had to switch the two mouse buttons in the game’s control settings, though, in order to move around like I did in Torchlight 1 (left-click on the ground to move there) because by default, those controls were switched. Opening/closing windows works like it usually does (left-clicking the X to close a window, etc.). With most games, this isn’t a problem at all (including Torchlight 1). However, since this mouse comes with switched buttons per se, I need to switch them back in the Windows settings. Or, in other words, I use a mouse with my left hand but leave the buttons unswitched. While I need to use a mouse with my left hand (using my right hand gives me a headache and concentration problems), I use the mouse buttons like a righthander: my left index finger right-clicks and my left middle finger left-clicks. ![]() Its left and right mouse buttons are switched by default. I need to go into greater detail to explain it: I have a Razer Death Adder mouse, the left-hander edition. The major issue comes with the control settings and I’m still not sure what exactly is going wrong here. ![]() And it’s weird because Torchlight 1 didn’t have that problem. I really don’t like it when games have that. The windowed mode doesn’t “stop” above the Windows task bar which means that part of the screen is always behind it. The first few minutes of playing the game were really disappointing. It looks a bit “cheap” and doesn’t tell that much about the story or the background of the world which was a bit sad as I would have loved to get more information about the world I was about to enter. The opening trailer is… not what I would have expected. But there’s still space for more variety. Oh well, can’t have everything, right? And maybe it’s just because it’s beta and they’ll add in more later (although my favourite ferret is the sable-colored one. Unfortunately, the ferret only has one which was surprising because ferrets typically have different fur colours and I was certain we could choose from different ones. Also, some of the other pets (like the cat, for example), can have different fur colours which you can choose when creating your character. I really wanted to play with the ferret but when looking at the other pets, I did have a hard time deciding for the ferret and against the others. And then – the pets! My absolute favourite part. In general, I just prefer playing a female character, so I really loved being able to do that. But it’s better than nothing and for a non-MMO, it’s enough for me to have such simple choices. When I created my first character, I liked having a few options to choose from (face, hair style, hair colour, gender). So, I’m definitely not even half as informed about this game than I am about Guild Wars 2. And now I’ll share with you my impressions about the game! I haven’t actually read much about the game before trying it out (and before pre-purchasing… *cough*). It was also the first time I ever got to play the game (even though I’ve pre-purchased it in the meantime). ![]() It’s been a few days now since I’ve been able to play Torchlight 2 during their beta stress test event.
