Of course you would be right to say that the gameplay is identical, but it's sequel rather than ripoff.

TorchLight and Diablo share absolutey nothing in common, aside from the fact that they're both RPG fantasies, surprise? Having a pet that acts as a mobile inventory that can sell loot for you, was an original concept developed by Fate. Fishing for fish that can give your pet increased attributes, different look and abilities, was also an original concept developed by Fate. "Fame" also, was an original concept developed by fate. Fate isn't a very well known dungeon crawler mainly because of it's type of vendor and marketing scheme which prevents it from being available to the genre specific audience. It's a great game in it's own right because it added new elements to the monotonous dungeon crawler.

That doesn't make it bad tho, quite the opposite. It looks a lot like WoW. Not great, but OK. Plus it's cheap. Torchlight is a Diablo clone plain and simple.
