I was NOT expecting them to make a sequel to this game. It's been over 15 years, hasn't it?

Reminder that this is not being done by the original Titan Quest developers Crate (who made Grim Dawn), and the last few Titan Quest DLCs were very... Bad.

So temper your expectations.

The past few Titan Quest DLCs were made by Pieces Interactive who are currently working on yet another Alone in the Dark remake. Titan Quest II is being made by Grimlore Games, who made the Spellforce 3 trilogy of RTS/RPG hybrids.

Not sure how much of an improvement that is, but it's not quite the worst-case scenario. So that's nice.

The newest Spellforce was fantastic, so I'm tentatively interested now.

I've spent many an hour playing TQ. Would love to see it in a modern engine, properly evolved for a sequel. Wonder what's the ETA.

Wasn't Grimdawn made by many of the same people?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Titan Quest and Grim Dawn is from the same Studio, yes.

With the last addon it even got a good controller layout so I recently did a new playthrough on my SteamDeck

Still s very fine hack&slay

How does it run on the deck?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

can't complain at all - it's very smooth and except for the main-menu the controller-layount feel pretty good

This one is being made by the Spellforce 3 devs. Wonder when we'll see some gameplay.

Its a cgi trailer.. for a game made by a studio that didnt make the first game

I mean, it might be great, but we really know nothing

[–] qooqie 1 points 2 years ago

Tbf it’s by the spellforce 3 devs and that game fuckin rocked

I wonder how this will do with D4 being out and PoE2 maybe coming next year.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

With D4 being the dud it is, they might have a chance to get some disgruntled people... They have my attention for sure...

Hope this goes better than the last titan who made a quest

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Titan Quest was the first PC game I bought.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Great news! Looking forward to when they post more about it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Hyyype, even if it's just more slightly prettier TQ 1 i'm super happy.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 years ago

I wonder if the success of Baldur's Gate got them to rush to get an announcement trailer together earlier than originally planned.
