I was pleasantly surprised to recently discover that Path Of Exile was released on the consoles this past summer. I guess that sort of counts…though it’s not that old but still, 4 years after release. Similar type of game to TQ,too.
Guess the success of Diablo is paving the way for more similar games.
I’ve replayed the old stuff and just got into the Ragnarok content. My first take it stays true to old TQ, but lacks a bit of fit and finish. One thing annoys the hell out of me though. They constant mix up Gaelic and Gaul. People on the Danube have an Irish accent, apparently, as does the Nordic princess who points you northward from Greece.
I am about a third of the way through the new content on normal. I love that the new sounds are 3.1. It is obvious the developers have a great deal of passion for the game. The landscapes are gorgeous.
I have gotten a few blues and lots of dark greens. The new relics are starting to drop more often. The quest experience is pretty lousy, but I am doing them anyway to satisfy my completionist tendencies.
A kind Vietnamese person put up a guide that I used to complete a couple of the quests.
Cool. I have created 4 pack mules using the expansion and I have an illusionist that is ready for it, but I am taking a break from him to focus on a few characters that I have in Greece. I want to earn the single mastery completion achievement, either with my Hunter or my Warrior.
Well, since this game came out as part of this months Humble Bundle, I thought it might be interesting to set up some Multiple player games.
I believe we have a Discord Room for it already.
Damn it, I just started it up again. Titan Quest is to me, the Comfort Food of Gaming. They could come out with an expansion every few years and I would be happy.
I forget if you’re in the Grim Dawn thread, but there is a mod for that game that lets you play (I believe) all the Titan Quest classes in Grim Dawn. Take that, comfort food!
Titan Quest is one of those games I’ve started several times over the years and I enjoy it for the first few hours, but never enough to come close to finishing it. I think I got as far as halfway through Act II (Egypt?) at least twice. Keep meaning to give it another shot, maybe I will do so now.
It’s pretty good. It’s huge and it bit too much back tracking, but the new mastery is fun and the ability to create an instant level 40 character is fun (provided you have some decent equipment for them).
Also, thrown weapon are fun.
I think Ragnarok area is more fun then Egypt, but not as fun as Greece.
