Additional Comments

It quits with "Curses! Torchlight II has crashed!" and no crash report but the following output on the terminal. Since it stops at parsing shaders this might be a problem with my graphics card or opengl. I have Intel HD 4000 graphics and use mesa 10.1.2. Shader support might be missing from mesa which is why it works for the other people who use proprietary amd or nvidia drivers.

It appears the game doesn't always shut down properly. For the all versions, this will waste RAM (and possibly CPU time). For the Steam version, this will also prevent cloud syncs, and you will not be able to re-launch Torchlight 2 until the old process is gone.

Use killall Torchlight2.exe2 to force-kill it. In my experience, this has no negative effects (if you do it after trying to shut down the game properly first).
