Great stress relieving Action-RPG,

This review is from: Titan Quest Gold (Titan Quest and Titan Quest Immortal Throne) (Video Game)
The game is billed as an action-RPG. The number of NPC's is limited, the game is relatively linear, save some sidequests that are optional but not exactly secret since every NPC with something important to say has an exclamation point above their head. You start the game as a single hero (or heroine as is my preference) with nothing but the tunic on your back. You only get to chose male or female, no races, classes, or even differing appearances (except your tunic color). The reason I gave it four stars for an above average game is the beautifully rendered ancient worlds. If you love ancient history this game is even more fun, but even if you don't, the graphics are great. Also they have a Mastery system that is innovative and allows you to choose two separate Masteries (second at level 8) to customize and diversify your character. You can use many different weapons and are not restricted based on your Mastery but rather your attributes, (a weakling will not be wearing heavy armor, etc.) This game is all action, there is no running errands around town for this guy to get that information etc. which happens often in RPGs (I love that kind too, don't get me wrong!). You go out, kill lots (lots, seriously) of enemies, build up nice and quickly, then talk to some guys, then go out and kill some more. You can find tons of items, some ordinary, some magical, some rare and some legendary. You also can make artifacts by collecting ingredients and recipes and taking them to an enchanter.
A few more pluses, some Mastery skills allow for summoned "pets" (wolves, elementals, etc.) to help you; skill points foolishly spent can be reclaimed and reallocated with the help of a mystic and some cash. If your inventory gets a little full and you don't want to sell certain items there is a helpful caravan driver where you can store stuff and buy more room if needed. I am a fan games like Baldurs' Gate, Neverwinter Nights, etc. so this game was a departure from that more in depth style of RPG, but I still found it fun and the price was right so I would definitely recommend it for some stress-relieving hacking action.

I am not much on games usually. My husband wanted to try it out as it sounded interesting. It is as much fun to watch him play as it is for me to play myself. Creating characters with different attributes and combinations is spiffy. Even for the novice player, it is not very hard to pick up the concepts of staying alive and moving forward. I have a terrible sense of direction so the map is a lovely thing to have so I don't spend all day wandering about and retracing my steps. The game is addicting so it helps to keep a clock handy. We don't play online with others so I cannot speak to that. I do like this one tho.

Great game. Huge replay value. Create a Spirit/Nature character and find an item that a Warfare/Defense character would love? There is a transfer vendor who moves items from character to character quickly and easily. Accidentally spend a skill point on something you hate to use? A merchant can untrain it for you for a reasonable fee. Includes nine completely unique skill sets (Nature, Storm, Earth, Defense, Warfare, Rogue, Hunter, Spirit, and Dream). Pick two skill sets to determine your class. Pure genius. This game has everything that Diablo 2 missed. Yes, I said it. Diablo 2 has faults.
Only complaint: Ironforge isn't putting out more patches for Titan Quest. I want more content. This game rocks.
