Is it still?
By the way, I appreciate you having Barmanu (the little b***h :D) in there. I think outside of perhaps Tyhpon and The Bloated One I have probably died to him most. Though Hades can also be pretty difficult.
Edit: Oh and good point on how differently builds can turn out. It's not just the amount of possible character builds, but moreso that the game remains perfectly playable (at least on Normal) with almost any build, but the performance of builds and how they play can still be very different.
@Click4Gameplay, what about Dungeon Siege by Microsoft Games wayyy back then too!! It was 'another diablo clone' but loved that top down with 2 player multiplayer coop!!
I found a new top down RPG called alaloth: champion of the four kingdoms. maybe something for you? worth a look IMO
does this game still have issues with multiplayer? id check the game out, if i can do so with my brother together
@@aice336 hey, the multiplayer works fine, the only issue is that you can only play with people who have the same package of mods or dlcs installed as you, for example, you can’t play with someone who has the Scandinavia dlc if you don’t have it, even if you are nowhere near that part of the game yet.
Even though Grim Dawn improved the gameplay, added a lot of interesting systems and made exploration way more interesting, Titan Quest's setting, visual style and thematic legendary items are still my favorite. Love the game and still playing it, thanks for making a video on it!
Exactly my opinion, Grim Dawn improved the engine significantly and added lot of interesting stuff there. But the environment and atmosphere in Titan is much better.
I surprisingly ended up playing it for hundreds of hours in 2016/17. I burnt out on it eventually and I still have a number of unfinished (on Normal) characters lying around. Not least because there are so many other very replayable ARPGs.
The Melee combat was a step down, other than that GD's world building was great.
@@paulberry5750 Interesting. Why do you think Grim Dawn's melee is worse?
@@PandemoniumGameDev The basic mooks are sword sponges that take multiple hits to drop. With Bosses you have to drown them in healing potion laced blood.
GD favors Casters & Summoners.
"We're probably never going to see a sequel..."
Thankfully that aged poorly!
I hope the new game is good
My husband bought me Titan Quest for Christmas 2022 after Googling “games like Diablo on Switch” as he knows how much I love Diablo. I was blown away. Such a fun great with brilliant mechanics and I was shocked to find out how old it is! They ported it really well and I thought it was made for console for how well it was done. And the mythology got me hooked too as I really love ancient lore and especially Egypt and Greece. I also love the seemless transition between maps so no lagging or loading times when entering or exiting different areas. I’m really happy with this “ Diablo clone” and it’s superior in a lot of ways in my opinion
Yeah, Crate's support of their games is exceptional
If you like TQ you should check out Grim Dawn its made by the same guys and uses the same combining two classes but took it a step further. I think you will enjoy it
Yeah Grim Dawn is also great. I didn't know Titan Quest was available for Switch. I play it on my Android phones now lol
@@TheBamaChad-W4CHDI play it on Android too. It is a lot cheaper than free to play games. especially now that the legendary edition is worth around 6 dollars (285 pesos in the Philippines)
I still play Titan Quest with DLC. I love this game because of a lot of skills tree, class combination, and mythology background.
can you freely combine classes in this game or do you have to decide for like a main class at some point? i really love my class fantasy in games
@@aice336 At level 2 you choose your 1st skill mastery, then at level 8 you can (but not have to) choose your 2nd mastery. These skill trees are your typical arpg trees, the only difference being that instead of unlocking next tiers of skills at certain character levels, you have to spend your skill points on progress bar (so if you want to you can neglect low level abilities and focus on the bar to get to top tier skills early on). Upgrading the progress bar gives you some stats, health and mana, so it's not like you're wasting points just to unlock the abilities. As for the mastery combos, they are pretty much endless. Some are more powerful than others, but it's not like there is just one meta (Diablo II & III 😂). Set items & unique items in general are varied & plentiful, giving you even more options.
Is there an anniversary edition for Xbox one?
Visuals are still top notch in my perspective. I totally appreciate the atmosphere this game gives over many other Action RPGs
top notch.... sry but this is pure bullshit.
Graphics are really still amazing! Very good at 4k, which is remarkable for such a old game!
This game is really a far too often overlooked gem.
Some people might see it as just a diablo 2 "clone", but I always liked it more than the game it supposedly is a clone of.
The atmosphere is really great.
I also like that it is one of the few games that uses "Medusa" as the name for the individual being rather than the entire species if you want to call it that.
Something interesting about the music is that apparently with a few exception like menu and bossfight music, the game doesn't seem to have classical soundtrack... tracks.
I liked the music so much I tried extracting it from the game files to put on my mp3 player and there are a lot of files that have a single instrument or sound, which then presumably are combined to form various songs in a more dynamic way somehow. I have no idea how the game does this, I only saw the sound files and drew my conclusions from there.
its better then diablo 1 and 2 easy
@@punchito Nah, not even close - it's serviceable but it doesn't really belong in the same tier. I'd consider Diablo 1 & 2 as S Tier titles, Titan Quest is B/C at best.
@@Grandmastergav86 No need to simp for blizzard. Titan Quest beats those games in terms of atmosphere and setting.
Is there an anniversary edition for Xbox one?
@@anitaremenarova6662 I agree on Diablo 2 (and 3 for that matter), but Diablo 1 is a true masterclass of atmosphere that Titan Quest didn't quite reach for me, but TQ still blows the D2 and 3 clearnly out of the water in terms of atmosphere. But atmosphere is something very subjective, so I can see why some people might prefer Diablo's more edgy world.
Granted D1 is far worse in terms of interface, quality of life features, scope and such, but it is considerably older and due to being the first game in and founder of the entire genre had nothing to build. Call it nostalgia or fanboying, but Diablo 1 to me is and always will stay in a class of it's own.
@Ro-lando: Sorry, no idea. I have no consoles.
I absolutely love TQ. Played all of the recently released expansions and had a blast with pretty much all of them.
And honestly, I am craving for more!
The changelogs that this game gets to this very day are massive. Takes like half an hour to read everything.
Titan Quest is a great game, but I would only recommend it if you like the Ancient Greece/Egypt setting. Otherwise I think that Grim Dawn is just a level-up in every way.
I absolutely agree.
actually its the only reason to play this instead of grim dawn i d love to have this ancient setting with all what Grim Dawn has to offer
@@click4gameplay what about on console? On PS4 Titan Quest base game is $6. Is it worth playing on console if I enjoyed Torchlight 2?
yeah in terms of gameplay Grim Dawn is way better, but Titan Quest's aesthetics / music feels nicer in a certain way
Well, Grim Dawn did suffer from systems bloat a bit. Too many modifiers on items, crafting, fairly gamey faction system etc. I think I prefer it over TQ, but in many ways it feels just like a darker, more messy TQ2 essentially. Still very much worth it though. At least judging from the one playthrough I have done some years ago.
Titan Quest 2 is coming😎
Ya but its not being made by the same people it gonna suck. IDK why everyone is getting so hyped about TQ2 . Why do you even need a TQ2?

I played this game in 2006 and I remember how blown away I was. The Immortal Throne, the first old DLC that came one year later added more complexity and fun to the whole game, there was so much missing before in the original, like mini-bosses and artefacts. 8 years later the game got finally a remake and playable multiplayer. And it -is- quite fun, combining your powers with others that is. I must admit that the first expansion Ragnarok was very much worth it, adding even more weapons choices. The Nordic setting somehow fit with all the others and I would suggest you play that. However the later two expansions feel very lackluster to me. Over the years I had fun experimenting with it's systems and I can reccomend it to pretty much aynone. And don't forget about higher difficulty secret bosses and Immortal Throne secret passage, it rocks =")
Is there an anniversary edition for Xbox one?
@@ro-landocalrissian4633 The 2015 version came out for all consoles, however the updates and support on those are not great. Better play this one on PC.
It's no mystery why this game, along with Grim Dawn, is still extremely loved and played to this day by a lot of people. One just simply needs to look at the people who made it.
Which are?
The graphics, the music, the gameplay, the story, everything is on the spot. I just love this game and I think is the best rpg game ever
Recently dropped D4 and got back into this and Grim Dawn. They just do it right, like Diablo use to. The build customization is just *chef’s kiss*
This game has consistently remained fun to play for me for almost 2 decades in a way none of the Diablo games have, and especially with it becoming increasingly obvious how greedy Blizzard is it's really refreshing how TQ has zero microtransactions. The only additional cost to the player is buying expansions. I literally don't give a shit about Diablo 4.
I agree, I recently got into D3 and within a month I know just play Path of Exile..
Don't have PC or I would try TQ
I feel the same for Diablo II.
Over the last 2 decades i played this game over and over and over again.
Sure I tried and liked Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, PoE, Last Epoch ... But I always come back to the roots.
@@Guitar-Dogit’s on console. But not that happy with PlayStation port. Lots of crashes. At least 20 or so during my platinum run. And no Ember dlc for PlayStation. So no Naidan class. Sucks.
This game was my Diablo 1 & 2! never played those games and this one was my first of this genre.
It's been a while since I played this game, but I think the game also had a map editor too.
Please go play diablo 2 resurrected
I love Titan Quest, always waited for a second title, instant bought all dlcs and was stunned as they arrived out of nowhere.
I love to see that this video is only 5 days old and people are active on this game.
I would recommend it to everyone that enjoyed D2, Sacred and all the other diablo-like games.
It's a lot of fun.
As you said there are so many high quality aspects for that time of the games release and status of the company.
THQNordic really show some love for the series.
Kinda have to disagree on the dlc part. Dlc's imo shouldn't be for new players to start with.
Hate to see that you get 70 characters thrown at you as it should be a time investment to get that far.
Dlc's should aim at end game content / advance the current game imo.
rly complete video bro i thank you for the presentation i dont need to look away after this one
Enjoying this game so much so thankful for your channel id be lost without you. Graphics reminds me of age of mythology
Long retrospective on a game I've never played? Yes please.
I experience those frame drops as well, not just when entering caves but sometimes just when walking around. FPS drops to 1 for a second and then catches up, which sometimes means you suddenly find yourself in heavy melee combat with a ranged character because the game continued moving your character.
My specs are pretty much the same as yours, a 2060 6 GB and 16 GB RAM but with a Ryzen 7 3700X
What "game version" are you playing on? I've tried selecting the DirectX9-Option on the start-up (3rd-option from the top) and the framedrops are basically gone for me. I have no Idea why though. It's very weird, that the game ran better on my ~14 year old computer.
@@Telkin96 I play on whatever version comes on when I use the steam quickstart from its symbol in the task bar on the down right of the screen.
MAybe I should try DX9. The same thing happens in Grim Dawn but flipping to DX9 doesn't work there.
And the game runs better on old computers because it was made for old computers.A lot of older game (engines) can't cope with modern systems
I got out of ARPGs for a while, been thinking about diving back in. I think you've convinced me to pick this up!
Amazing game, playing DLCs for the first time with a friend, and it's a ton of fun. Besides some technical issues. Grim Dawn is still my favorite ARPG tho. Also, recommend Reign of Terror mod for Grim Dawn. It's basically Diablo 1&2 in GD engine with a dual class system and it's wonderful and free.
give dawn of masteries a shot, it ads a ton of classes from various games and mods. DIablo 1 to 3 are included too :)
This game has a 32 bit game engine. Lots of frame rates drops or other issues can be blamed on that old engine. And all the stuff put into the game means that the devs used up all the memory they could get hold on. The latest DLC even changed the very first act - mostly by adding some higher level enemies (sample: monstrous boar before Delphi with a level of 10).
The 11 masteries allow to create about 60+ class combinations (usually dual classes, but you can run with a single mastery as well - some are good, some are bad, some are fun - but the gear you find can make any combination a success).
My reason for the durability: we all know the story behind the gameplay. We learned part of it in school. We read it in books. Thus the story and the locations = we know them / more or less. If you check other famous games like Diablo or Baldur's Gate, you need to learn the lore while playing. Titan Quest ticks on your knowledge from our school times. Nothing is really new. Of course it is not exactly like in the old sagas, but it is close enough.
The lot of masteries makes a lot of replayability. Other games have somewhere between 3 to 10 different classes (that is base classes). If you look into Path of Exile you have a lot of variety for moving from the base classes. Titan Quest has fixed ways within the classes and thus the variety is not that great. On the other hand it gives really a great amount of variety anyway.
It is and will stay my most loved ARPG - especially because I can play it offline. Even if you buy it now on GOG or Steam you will get all of it way below 100 bucks. (watch out for bargains. It is offered quite often.)
I bought this game when it first came out and I really enjoyed it. I still have my original copy and just installed it, cd key and all LOL. I haven't played it in years, should be fun.
Titan Quest was, and still is, one of the most underrated games. Among others such as Rise and Fall, NoX, Ceaser.
I remember playing TQ when I was younger and it is still one of my favorites games of all time.
I have both TQ and TQ:IT in Steam but unfortunately they had problems running on Windows 11.
Great stuff, this is the kind of content we love to see!
Greetings. This game is almost as old as me, literally. I first played TQ when I was 3 years old, sitting on my older brother’s lap. I’ve since played this game consistently for about 14 years of my life, having taken a hiatus at about 8 between moving houses and losing access to the old computer and getting my own one.
This game is a masterpiece.
That is all that needs to be said. It has incredibly varied and replayable gameplay loop, very appealing and atmospheric visuals, great soundtrack and tremendous amount of build variety, as much for its era as right now.
The most recent dlcs, are great, they add to the gane world, bringing new ideas and cool mechanics.
The most recent addition of debuff shrines with the eternal embers dlc feels like a breath of fresh air, bringing a new level of difficulty to the game which made me relearn how to play the game in more ways that I can describe, from how I prioritize skills when building a character, to what gear modifiers I choose to how I clear the map. It is incredibly fun. It is so fun that I, a zoomer with next to 0 attention span have not gotten bored of this game in 14 years of playing it.
You should try this game.
This is why I love your channel! Thank you for all of your vids. I've been an RPG lover my whole gaming life and it seems like a lot of RPGs are so souless nowadays. I will definitely try this and maybe even Grim Dawn.
If you're in love with mythology go for TQ first. If not - go for Grim Dawn, it's superior in almost every aspect (except in my opinion the dirty aesthetics, which fits the lore but can be a bit ugly at times).
@@PandemoniumGameDev Thats one thing I didn't like about Grim Dawn what the armor always look like trash.
@@misanthropicattackhelicopt4148 I mean it does make sense, they're working with what they have left. But yeah, they def look kinda ugly.
10:32 just alone for this small, but amazing detail I think this game is awesome. One of the reasons I love From Software games - you see an enemy with a scary weapon and you say to yourself "Oh if I farm this enemy I can get this weapon"
That's really fucking cool lol
Great video. It's such a coincidence that I've recently downloaded this again. It sucks that the DLCs are kind of expensive.
REALLY GREAT GAME (one of a kind) a lot of skills tree and class combination, with great game mechanics that make it "unique"
And then a sequel got announced!! 🎉
About input lag when using ranged weapons and abilities, check whether or not your game is running in key down or key up mode for abilities, whether the ability is triggered when the key is pressed or when you let go of the key after having pressed it,
How do you check/change this?
I recently finished this game, but started to play it over again...just by traveling through Greece, Egypt, China I feel as if I'm in the Bronze Age of Greece and Troy, truly amazing, definitely worth playing on the p.c. and the Nintendo Switch😉
Hi ist the Pc Version bugy or the Switch Version ?
@@myrasama5514 From what I've seen, the switch version had problems cos the controls were not as good as on the p.c.
OK thx for the answer Happy new year :3
@@myrasama5514 Happy new year to you as well, and hope you have lots of enjoyment when playing titan quest😄
Thanks - this video just convinced me to buy Titan Quest Anniversary Edition + DLC. I was looking for an atmospheric action RPG, with good music and options, and everything you said was enough to make me buy it. I love mythology so this sounds like a perfect game for me, even though I barely play(ed) isometric style games. That is not a turn off at all, so perhaps this will be the game that will make me truly get into this style!
All in all, great video-review, congrats and more success to you!
How are you finding the game?
As or the graphics: If you're really fussed by it, there a somewhat high res texture and post-processor reshade mod for it.
This is also one of the very few games that got ported to mobile really, really well. The interface is near perfect, there's a few quality of life mechanics added like auto-potion, and it runs well on any reasonably modern phone from S10 era onwards.
It's also fairly cheap, including all the expansions. Highly recommended if you're looking for endless fun on Android or iOS.
I wouldn't call it cheap it is €25-30 for the game and all DLC. That is by far the most i ever spend on a mobile game. But it does run and play really well.
Tremendous I agree
Two things
- The default fast speed may be unintended. :D
- The reason your damage suffered specifically against the Lamia in Hades may have been that they have a decent chance to dodge projectiles.
Aye
I just start playing the game again and the game movements isn't fluid. It lags like rubber band.
There is no summoner like Diablo 2. This make me hold the button down to attack. Lame.
game is amazing. I've been so obbsesed with this game that I decided to play game till I get 0 deaths run. So each time I die, I would just start to game with another class, and use the gear i stashed and try again. And finally the class I ended game with 0 deaths (Including expansion) is Templar. Maybe i come back to play new expansions since most of past games nowdays are just meeehhh
Oohh I remember playing this! If your character was too powerful compared to the enemies, A hit would send them flying across the screen 😂
Yes lol
You can see mobs actually use unique items. I think it's very very cool.
I always wait for a new vid from you to pop on 😀
Also still playing Oblivion. That game really aged well. Never played titan fall. Might give it a try !
Very good review! Exactly what i was looking for!
Played grim dawn for almost 1000 hours and I did pick this game up when the anniversary version went on sale but I have yet to play it. Thanks to this video I think i know what I'll be doing next weekend 😁
How was it?
Of all the ports of this game. The mobile port has the game speed option. And it runs extremely well. This is hands down my favorite arpg!
Never seen your channel before, but as someone who has played TQ since it was on dice, I agree with this video.
Playing tonight with the wife and re-living some choice childhood moments.
Glad you like the video, and hope you stick around.
Coop is a lot of fun. I didn't have the time to talk about coop that much,
but I did enjoy it quite a bit with my buddy. I'll probably try it out with my gf soon as well.
Idk if it was intentional or not, but I like the feel of the slower gameplay at the beginning of the game. It reminds me of a new warrior, just starting out with no “mastery” of combat. Then at the endgame and beyond, you’re an experienced titan slayer, flying thru enemies. Either way, my default game speed is fast lol
Great video, I just have a small addition: the game speed can be changed on the mobile port. On which you can also get Immortal Throne, Ragnarök and Atlantis for 5€ each. (or equivalent amount in other currencies)
Damn, I didn't know that! That's actually amazing.
I´ll always play this game, it´s fun, you have so much possibilities in making your character.
My Templar can stand next to Hades without attacking him and still beating him with Dmg reflect and Hp regen of over 3k/s.
My Old Brigand could take out any enemy with one attack, if the attack/skill misses, damn hoping i don´t get one shot.
Even Thor Shotgunner is fun and strong.
Damn need to start doing some builds again.
Also if you runnig the game on Fst or very fast it can happen thta some items won´t stay still after they are droped and can´t be picked up, if it´s a quest items it´s best to put the game on Normal speed if something like the item won´t appear.
I also had made an instat lvl7 mod and instant lvl 85 mod as for veterans not to have ta farm that long and to test out builds much faster, but then EE came out and it gave us a lvl70 Legendery char and it is awesome, so i took down those 2 mods.
TQ will be one of those games that i always be playing.
when will you review sacred 1? good vid btw I like titan quest and grim dawn is easily on my top 5 games
Great video! Amazing job!
The theme/world/visuals are why I keep playing TQ over grim dawn or PoE. It's just such an easy game to really put yourself into.
They literally just announced the second one not that long ago crazy. Hope you’re hyped for it
My favorite pc game by far, the game of my childhood, still love playing it after all these years !
A friend recently introduced me to the game, I’m in love already and looking for a new play-through already
i am in babylonia now. working on the next chapter. this is such an awesome game.
Great video! Titan Quest is my favorite ARPG with Grim dawn right below it, so its always good to see a classic like this get some love. I agree with most of what you said however what makes you think a Titan Quest 2 is not a possibility?
With a game that came out in 2007 (14 YEARS AGO!) it still has a pretty active player base on Steam (average of 1k-1.4k players daily which is pretty decent for a single player 14 year old ARPG). The Devs (Which has swapped a few times i believe) have been putting out quality content, bug fixes, QoL features, Full expansions (I agree Atlantis being the weakest and Rag being my favorite), and to me this indicates that the IP is profitable enough to still pump out content for the fans of the game, so why wouldn't a sequel be a possibility in the future?.
They even recently added an new endgame farming method in the past 1-2 weeks that allows the you to place debuffs on yourself to gain currency, you can then spend that currency to open loot orbs and they added new endgame dungeons that can only be entered by collecting certain keys that drop throughout the campaign. For fan service they even made the new area, where you add debuffs to your character (its at the very beginning of the game right outside the first town teleport), that new area is modeled afterthe opening cg cut-scene, where the medusa is killed and the soldiers are turned to stone. Now if these updates were just "cash grabs", as others seem to think, why would they put this much detail into these small updates and add these cool little fan service type updates?
With the care and attention they have been putting in this game lately I find it hard to believe that it will end with just this game. I mean this game has gotten some huge bug fixes as well that imo had no right to be fixed due to the age of the game and game engine it was built on. One of those bugs (which I have been wanting for YEARS) was the ragdoll physics (for enemies and gear) being tied to gamespeed and most importantly the FPS, so if I wanted to play at anything higher then 60 every physics based item would drop like a bag of bricks and the classic feel of smacking a mob across the screen was gone. This was actually fixed along with the Eternal Embers update so I can now play at a smooth 144fps (144hz) with the classic TQ ragdoll physics and the text no longer looks blurry. I don't believe a Dev team thats looking for a easy money would waste time fixing an issue like this, there are AAA companies that don't even fix huge bugs in their games lol.
I'm not saying that TQ2 is 100% coming obviously but imo all of this attention toward this 14 year old ARPG has to lead to something and I find it hard to believe they will just stop with the TQ IP after this game. I don't even need a TQ2 because I can play TQ forever but I would love to see a sequel or even another spiritual successor (similar to GD). I have faith in the Devs/publisher because they have shown they do love this game especially from the recent updates/improvements.
Actually I saw somewhere that Titan Quest 2 is in project. The team behind it is Grimlore Games who worked on Spellforce 3.
@@Bajicof Yeah I would not be surprised. I have never played a game fully developed by Grimlore games but I have faith based on their work on revitalizing TQ.
I got TQ anniversary edition 2 weeks ago.
Never played a similar genre.
And already sunk 80 hours on it.
One of the best buys i ever made.
Does the anniversary version have all of the dlc?
@@olplainface1299 Yes
@@MrMaKeMeDiNnEr thank you!
i prefer the 3 tiered difficulty system. when i hit that 2nd difficulty, my character is really put to the test, 3rd difficulty punishes inattentive players and prepares for end game farming. not having any of these, well we just go from point a to b basically and don't learn anything. the length is the whole point
Grim Dawn is incredible and I can’t wait to play/try out Titan quest
Great video, thank you 👍 just started playing
One of my favourite games of all time. I keep playing it today
I tried to get into Titan Quest a few times, but actually what I really miss somehow is something shallow as graphical violence. With those top-down hack and slay games it seems I need at least a bit of bloody hit-confirmation and some blood flowing when thrashing away. Combat just feels like hitting things with wooden sticks for me. Oo
I tried to play a few times because it's supposed to be so great, but I couldn't get past this one simple thing. :D
I Miss this too but
The ragdolls when you get OP are amazing
Game speed - use cheat engine and have this feature everywhere. One of the selling points for me is physics, when you blast a lot of enemies with strong attack and send them flying all over.
Titan Quest and Sacred ..two arpg's i play every year. thanks for the little nostalgia trip
Been playing on PS5 I got those low drop op af blue thrown weapons at like level 5 and been having a blast playing this game.
I just replayed it recently. Indeed I like the bright theme very much. These days everything has to be grim dark and sad, probably because of dark souls, it's good to go back to pure heroics (and actually seeing something lol).
I'm not sure I'd blame Dark Souls when in comes to arpgs. The first isometric arpg was Diablo, no wonder most of them try to replicate that atmosphere. It's kind of tied to this genre in most people's minds. For example, Path of Exile devs started to work on their game in 2006, way before even Demon's Souls. I agree though, I'd definitely like to see more of these type of games in different settings. Grimdark - in general - definitely became a bit overused nowadays. I guess 2 decades of high-fantasy rpgs might have something to do with it as well.
It's been on my list to play forever. I might start it next :)
I played this for the first time in 2022 and damn this game is amazing , I wish I played it when it came out , I need to go back and finish it
I was a young man in my 30s when this came out, I remember I loved it
@@GenMaster haha thanks!
ARPGs are great co-op games, especially when they have local co-op! I believe Titan Quest is one of the rare ones that have it on console, but I think I read that there's some bugs/problems with it that has made me hesitant to get it. I still have it on my Wishlist and hope to play it with my partner one day
I understand you said that the PC version is your preferred version to play, but I wish you had talked more about the console versions. I don’t really have PC as an option RN and apparently the PS4 version has split screen? It would have been helpful to know more about all of the currently available versions of the game.
Thanks for this video!
Entering and leaving caves has something with ambient occlusion or something like that was the name.
I've put hundreds of hours into Torchlight II and Diablo III. I've never played Titan Quest though. It's on sale for $5.99 on PS4 right now (base game only, as Ragnarok and Atlantis are $19.99 each. Eternal Embers is not on console yet). I think I might have a new game to play.
Be aware I platinumed TQ on PlayStation. It’s not that great with controller. I had 20+ crashes and no eternal Embers means no Nidean class. Sad sad sad. Still fun but sad. Also storage has some issues in size in transfer and relic section
TQ is/was an amazing game. I would come back to it every so often to play it despite any new content because it was just fun. I've also played Grim Dawn but it could never really capture me. Then I tried Path of Exile and it was just too hard and confusing, until I came back to it a few years ago and spent some time reading guides and so on. Now I really enjoy Path of Exile.
and build tracks from there and leave the rest for a later session. I did both but did the first way initially and it took a day to get through
Pilgrim is one of the most OP combinations by the way ^^ You just made a pretty bad buildpath there. Invest in the main bow attack and the passive buffs of Neidan (the one that gives attackspeed when not under potion effect is really powerful! Later on you invest in the Neidan defense buffs and look for items with manaregeneration to fully be able to max them as they provide a huge damage reduction. afterwards you can invest in the active skills in Hunter mastery that give you a buff or the enemy a debuff.
That's good to know, thanks. I just played this character very casually, with no intent to play it that much on higher difficulties. I knew my build was kinda awful, but I experimented a bit more and found a better combo. Although it doesn't really matter that much for normal difficulty. But still, Pilgrim seems like the last class I would play more seriously in the game. I want to try a Berserker (Warfare + Rune master), because it seems like a really fun combo.
Also for the Sequel stuff there is maybe one in the making thats supposed to be called Minerva Project.
My childhood game, I used to play this nonstop during middle school
You convinced me to buy the game. Great content as always! Thank you!
Titan Quest is my comfort game. I could easily tell you from which region each of your scenes were. I've been playing this game for years - pretty much just since after Immortal Throne came out. I might have put 10,000 hours into it. I have dozens of different characters trying out different mastery combos, and I have chests and chests full of loot. Ahem. (Might be a hoarder.)
I'm pretty far into Eternal Embers - but only with one character I made specifically for that area. My other two Legendary chars are not there yet. It's definitely another huge expansion with many new monsters and new loot, similar in size to Ragnarök. The Neidan mastery is neat - but it burns a lot of mana. I've also tried one of the new dungeons with those keys (normal level), and the loot... is probably not worth it. They drop a lot potions and little else. In that way, it's a bit like Tartarus.
Even so, it's my favourite game by far. The only other game I play ever so often is Path of Exile, so it was fun seeing you mention that.
I am glad I watched this video, because I really like this game, but I was dying so much. I think it's because of the game speed you were talking about. I didn't know what it was and never changed it to a slower speed. Hopefully this will help me. :)
Listening to this in the background while doing chores in lost ark felt weird
I loved Titan Quest back in the day. I was super surprised to discover it on the Play Store several years ago. Its been on every Android phone ive had since. I have anniversary addition ryat includes the base game Immortal Throne, Atlantis and Ragnarok. They even recently added a new expansion called Eternal Embers. It adds all kinds of new stuff like questline, armors and even an 11th skill line. Iys only 4.99 bit i haven't bought it yet
I've been enchanted with Grim Dawn and it's amazing mods, but Titan Quest truly is one of the best games ever made in it's genre. I need to load it back up and play through again!
Interesting stuff. Have to try the game, now that it's on sale in Store!
great video!
need to play this game again, i loved it!
Titan Quest was and still is fantastic. A lot of fun
Titan quest was an awesome game, I loved it much more than Diablo 2 even, great atmosphere, awesome (at the time) graphics, replayability is through the roof, since every mastery is quite unique! Will replay it soon enough...when I have time...
Great video. Great analysis.
Now the big question is will TQ2 look and play like the previous entries or will it be comparable to current games visually and play?
Dungeon Siege is a great game from this era as well. I've had some difficulty getting it to work on a modern computer though.
I agree with you; Neidan mastery is underwhelming: it's supposed to be a support mastery more than a main damage one but still, it lacks strong crowd control and debuff abilities to be reliable. Same for pets; it can summon two terracotta warriors, but because this mastery has no aura to support pets in general, players generaly prefer the other pet classes because of the better support.
"It lacks strong crowd control and debuff abilities to be reliable", seriously?
- Shen Pao with chance to Impaired-Aim enemies, Smoke Bomb with good chance to stun and immobilization, Dragon's Flame with Fumble, Fear or Confusion, Huangdi's Favor with chance to immobilization.
- Consequences reduced all main dmg res + life/energy leech resistances by absolute, can procs with any attacks or skill, or even with reflect/retaliation dmg + Weakness Chakra reduced both dmg and resistances of enemies by %. No other mastery has both RR type skill like this.
Those are still not enough to you?
@@TXHuyIcefrzzy Yeah ok, when you put it like this ^^
So many memories of this game, I'm playing it right now again, and in the past 16 years I have played the game dozens of times, everytime I'm bored with other games, I replay it, I love mythology and so this game was perfect! I'm so happy that titan quest 2 is about to happen, but I hope they don't mess it up, I for one like the simpleness of the game, I don't want another path of exile, that game is far too difficult for myself, I love playing through that game's story, but the after-game is too difficult as I don't know which way to go with the points system, Titan Quest is much friendlier and while you can run into trouble it it always is possible to beat again. Love this game to death.
You can play Titan Quest on your phone now.
A little clunky, but I used to play on the Subway on my way to work.
Bought this im the mobile playstore. Got hooked and bought all the dlc's. Still in love, this game has a soul!
Question. Do you know if the physical copy is the Anniversary edition of the game that's compatible with Ragnarok and Atlantis? I plan on buying the physical copy and the DLCs through the Xbox store. TIA.
