Paid demo

>>717190017
6 to 8 h for me
its okay

>>717189586 (OP)
it's very early access and is barely a tech demo, as it stands all it has done is make me have a desire to go back do a playthru of the original again

>>717190017
If it took you 10 hours, doesn't that mean it takes like 50 hours if you try all the classes?

Why does TQ have a cult following? I remember seeing a vid about it a year ago or so talking about how much better TQ is than Diablo

not enough skills

Where is the hippocampus at?

>>717195827
you combine 2 of the 4 classes. so there are 6 combos possible.
for now

i did the act 1 story in about 6h once, not sure if i want to try another char now or soon

>>717189586 (OP)
Needs a lot of time in the oven, but the devs saw the massive PoE2 rugpull and decided that they also wanted that sweet sweet scam money

>>717195841
I'm literally playing TQ as we speak on PS5
it's janky but it has charm, wouldn't be surprised if that was the case

>>717189586 (OP)
good base, waiting for 1.0

it’s good they didn’t need to release this though. looking forwatd to nect vontent drop

>fill up storm tree's divinity

big letdown. i'll start over as warfare or rogue and see if thats remotely more interesting

>>717195841
it’s a great ARPG niche as in it’s more occupied with the journey than the destination.

>>717196319
Thanks.

>>717196331
>nec vontent
Found the viet

i like it so far mechanically but the performance right now is quite bad
some fights drag me down to 15fps on medium settings on a 3070

Not sure. Not blown away. WASD and ranged feels clunky without being able to shoot and move at same time.

>>717196702
The ice shard spell literally drops me from 100+ fps to like 30 lol

titan quest was a good game because it was the first game i pirated
that's the only reason
titanquest 2 can't recreate that so it'll probably be disappointing

>>717189586 (OP)
best build in the first game?

Im unsure. would take quite some time, just to run around and pick up bullshit loot for 40h.

>>717189586 (OP)
So did they just redo the same mythological bosses ? Its not like there is an infinite amount of them.

>>717195989
So you are saying it has a skill issue?

Don't have much time in Titan Quest, but it feels good to play.
I do think it's a shame that it doesn't really have a unique feel to it, unlike TQ and GD. Could hand it to me and tell me it's Last Epoch, and I'd believe you.

>>717195645
I never played the original. Should I?

Less cooked than POE2

>>717198187
Yeah, it's pretty alright. Immortal Throne and Ragnarok are really quite good and the other content is serviceable.

>customization is fine, its D3 with more skills and more combinations
>gameplay is great
>artstyle is cool, its not the same boring DARK EDGY like D4/PoE2/LE, it doesnt need to have enemies with 3 mouths and a lot of spikes to show how powerful it is
>scenarios are great, really makes you feel small like old ARPGs
>exploration is great, there's a lot of mysteries in the world that gives you loots, experience and even attributes
>music is great like original, feels like a PS2/3 era game with epic musics
For a "beta" early access it has potential, the fact that is not Always online and its not a GaaS gives me hope, really hope that they deliver a good amount of content like promised.

guys... should i buy it? kinda tight on money but it looks worth it especially with the discount and future updates

>>717197630

>>717199317
if you broke, buy it later instead

>>717199317
How about just wait until you are not tight on money, guy

>>717199317
I would say no, tehres not much to it yet

saves are local, right?
where are they?

its early but any 'decent' wikis for two already?

>>717200505
probably in appdata like every other game nowadays

>>717199317
If you're going to get it later, it would be better to buy it now when its way cheap. But only if you are for sure getting it anyway.

Anyone played the first game on consoles?
I heard it's terrible, why?

>>717200682
yup thats what im thinking, but i have a feeling ill play the content now and just forget to play it when it gets more

does it have cool ragdolls and destruction physics? that's all I care about in ARPGs

it's not EA, it's an early alpha demo. i could do 3 monoliths in last epoch right now and they'd have more variety than the entirety of fucking titan quest2 that costs more

What is the best ARPG out there other than Diablo 2? How is Grim Dawn?

>>717201523
Honestly I think it depends a lot on what you're after. I couldn't stand Grim Dawn. The art style is just ugly and the game feels too jank to play. It's really hard to play something like that when you can't help but keep comparing it to Diablo 2.

>>717201523
Grim Dawn is great. One of the best ARPGs.

>>717189586 (OP)
it's very pretty but lacking in character compared to the original, so far.

>>717201523
grim dawn, torchlight 2, w40k inquisition: martyr, incredible adventures of van helsing, last epoch, victor vran, theres lots of options. don't let the franchise warriors get in your head and give them a peek with a fresh mind

>>717201523

>>717201878
If you don't like either of them, you don't like ARPGs

Biggest QoL change is splitting divinity points for masteries and main skill points. TQ1 always felt lie it was lacking in skill points for any build I'd want to use compared to other arpgs.

>>717201952
dunno about the rest but the intro mentor's voice is familiar to me but i can't place it

Lots of women in leadership positions in this game....... makes you think

>>717189586 (OP)
>Early Access
Don't care. Come back once it is done like Baldur's Gate 3.

Painfully basic
Unreal engine

that's enough for me to ignore it

>>717202203
This one is lacking in skills. Each mastery needs like double the amount of actives.

>>717202639
with more masteries, probably 4 or more missing now, and with the last skills for each, it should be alright

>>717202619
Unreal ruining so many games lately
what a disaster of an engine

>>717202392
we'd never be able to have a productive conversation about that on the forums, either.

@ me when they added crafting

Is there a level cap?

>>717203982
currently 40

>>717202746
It really bothers me with Storm. You get like 2 lightning spells and 2 ice spells. If you want to play a build focused on one or the other you don't get a lot of choice. I'm expecting the last row to be someting not-spammable.

>>717204492
i liked clycone+blizzard and call Lightning, but i can see that being a bit boring

I know it's EA, but how is it feeling compared to POE2?

>>717206615
imagine a 3 year old tried to copy poe2 while also getting distracted 10 minutes in

>>717206615
Its about 1/10th of the content if that and visually kind of basic in comparison. Mechanically clunky. Minimal classes and masteries. Its a fucking paid demo

Janky garbo. Feels exactly like tq1 but with a new coat of paint and shittier framrate. The gameplay, ui design, world design, narration, or combat do not hold up to modern standards

>>717212147
No, you haven't. Now piss off.

I'm not very well-versed in ARPGs, I just know that I generally enjoy playing them. Are ARPG players miserable spastics or do I just not know enough about these games to see anything really wrong with the game? Seems very good to me, for what all is available right now.

>>717200810
yep

>>717212717
PoE1, a game I love, has kind of rotted everyone's bran by making everyone only concerned about end game and disregard campaigns as filler.

>>717207093
I don't know about dodge randomly stopping working but dodge being able to phase through enemies with an obnoxiously long cooldown even unspecced (most of the modifiers add cooldowns) and having the charges count tucked away in the corner of your HUD means half of my deaths were dodging into a pack and just standing there helplessly while I got whittled down.
It probably wouldn't feel as bad if the default move speed didn't compel me to spam dodges to move between packs.

The aesthetics and voice acting is fucking shit though. WHERE ARE THE MAENADS
WHERE ARE THE SATYRS
WHY IS PAN SO LAME
>Oh Pan the god of revelry? I guess that means we should make him a petulant retard

>>717214759
Basically. ARPGs used to be about the journey, not the destination.

>>717212717
>Are ARPG players miserable spastics
The spillover from the popular live service games are and they make up most of the ARPG fans on 4chan. I've seen Grim Dawn threads were the majority of posts are arguing about Diablo IV or POE2.
The actual Titan Quest "community" if you could even call it that is very chill because it's a single player game and there's nothing to prove besides you got max level or cleared all the content in the game.

>>717201697
Grim Dawn with dpyes for WASD feels very smooth to play.
The aesthetic though is terrible. Halfway between fantasy, apocalyptic, and western.

>>717189586 (OP)
DEI slop

>>717215268
I really hope TQ2 will lean into the journey part.

PoE2 would be fucking amazing if they made the full campaign take you to like 80-85 and left the endgame to super spergs.

i miss games like champions of norrath and stuff, but maybe that's just my rose tinted glasses, diablo 3 was fun for a long time, i did a lot of repeat playthroughs with that much like i did with the Champions of Norrath and Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance
I really can't get into PoE though, I get filtered by the skills and passive tree.

PoE2 is a lot easier on experimenting and respeccing with the new systems though respeccing still costs a lot of gold. There's no shame in looking up a thorough guide if you just want to play. Though I'd probably wait until 1.0 for the full campaign. The endgame sucks.

this tq2 ea build is identical to the one that leaked 9 months ago... well they added a new row of niggers in the character selection screen but that's about 5 minutes of work. they have done 0 work in 9 months. they will dripfeed until 1.0 and then sell expansions later and offer excuses.

10 hours is playing the game 3 times, being naturally retarded, while also exploring every single corner 5 times, and rerolling the word on every levelup, and fighting the same bosses 5 times before moving on.

yea u can but if u play +5 enemy level then earth will be impossible and rogue will be ez pz 3 hours

>>717220559
Kek i went rogue/earth and took 6.5 hours, this checks out.

They could have at least put in like a hard divine trial or scalable boss to provide at least a few more hours of play and incentivize a bit of overworld farm. But there's literally no incentive to keep playing anymore. Fucking why?

>>717221362
Maybe they dont care about that, on day1 of EA

>>717221362
Because the studio is pretty clearly desperate for cash and needed to put out this absolute bare minimum early access to try and stay afloat. They announced this game years ago and have little to show for it so far which gives me pause in thinking they will actually get to finish it

>>717221610

Rogue is completely broken, and can be played melee or ranged. Has a massive hit skill and you can easily get the crit chance of it up to +80%, then skip the cooldown on it with flow on dodge + more dodge charges. Completely melts bosses

No idea titan quest was getting a sequel.
Is it good? how much content is in the game at the moment?

>>717223712
4 classes, 1 act, like 3-6 h story
for now

i think this is how roguelikes like hades get made.
they get ambitious and build a first map, but playtesters realize it takes 1-3 hours tops to do the entire thing, so the leadership takes notes and tells the developergolems to do something for retention, so the golems remake the game into a roguelike where you play the same map over and over but add blockers and metaprogression to pad it to a 20 hour game. its the simplest way.

>>717223712
It is currently in the earliest possible early access state. Buggy, runs like shit, next to no content.

>>717223712
>Is it good?
no

Instead of wasting my money on soulless UE5 slop with no content I started another character in the first one. What second mastery should I pick to go with Dream? Never used a build with that before so I'm not sure what pairs well with it.

Wait till it's finished. As a fellow extremely poor person you have to learn that games are not worth buying unless they're FINISHED and less than $20 tops. Living in poverty and still wasting your money on video games is drug addict behavior. Play something else in the mean time, and don't give me the excuse "i don't have anything to play!" because theres thousands of games you haven't played. If you can't find something else to play but insist on spending money to buy this ONE game you're being mindfucked by FOMO consumer culture.

>>717215268
Am I the only one that suffered the gameplay for the beautiful art and sound design of diablo 2? The focus on treadmill gameplay and "endgame" grinding in all diablo2 clones really misses the mark for me. Being able to pick a power fantasy to submerse myself in while exploring the world is great, but again, rather than players and developers seeing that as the end, they seem to treat being able to pick skills and customize your character as a means of picking a recipe to the end that is making big numbers.

>>717225224
>what is the combat like, more Diablo
this

>>717225224
With WASD its more dark alliance than diablo 2. With a generous serving of "stay out of the glowing red circle" MMO design.

>>717225430
I enjoy the gameplay loop in Diablo 2, but I totally agree with you. The art style and aesthetic is maximum soul. It hits the same mark for me as things like Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, Age of Empires 2, etc. Isometric games of that era are just beautiful. The infinite brainless loot grind isn't the drive for me.

Why do people buy these barebones EA games?

After poo2 turned out to be a scam i'm holding off on tq2. I am looking forwards to GD's Fangs expansion since it will be feature complete instead of Early Access.

>>717225545
nice and informative. is there a block button like DA at all?

Does WASD movement feel good and work well?

>>717226270
Yes-ish. They have a weird thing where you have a button that is anywhere between ES/ward and blocking depending on how you build it. It feels kind of awkward and its got cooldowny things.
I only played necromancer in DA2 on the xbox so my main takeaway from it was that it felt more streamlined than typical ARPGs where you have 99999 skills and have to click to move around.

>>717226581
Feels like it should be the default. The combat seems designed around it with the pacing and the generous ability to stutter step in between attack animations.

>>717226581
yeah i swapped to it after 5 mins because fuck clicking 500 times a second. its almost perfect but there will be times where u will have to move diagonally while tapping a or d repeatedly

Hello Anons. I've just gotten the game and I'm not sure what I should do after seeing that Leap has a retardedly high cooldown. Honestly, I'm considering refunding.

What is a build that would be fun to me? I usually like playing Leap Slam type builds. Lots of movement and jumping and slamming.

Then why not use the controller

Should I get it now for 24 or wait for the price to lower? I know content will come eventually but the price is my concern at this point

>try out a couple hours of PoE
>pretty fun, like it
>decide to get and try out PoE2 while Im still not invested in it
>feels pretty good too, immediately notice the nice QoL changes
>decide to put PoE2 away for now so that it can bake in the oven more
>go back to PoE
>suddenly it feels borderline unplayable in comparison
>TQ2 is even more unbaked
Well now Ive got nothing.

Well at least it's not Biggus Dickus

>>717227797

I beat Typhon in TQ1 few years back is that good enough to play 2?

Hello Anons, I noticed a few different "Vitality Damage" things in both Warfarer and Rogue.

So I was thinking of trying to make some sort of face tank life leech build. Is that a thing in this game or is it trying to be hardcore with Dodges and whatnot and no matter how much life leech I stack, I'll never face tank anything.

>>717228945
It's very doable as long as your resistances aren't non-existent

>>717228863
sure, both easy games

>>717228092

>>717229850
Well you see I don't care

>>717189586 (OP)
Early access dreck.

In Rogue, there is a talent called "Taste for Blood" it says it converts 100% of my Shadow Spell Damage to Vitality Damage.

But I can't see any Shadow Spell Damage spells....?

>>717230858
some skills can be modified to become that, like
>Trick Shot with Shadow Dagger

>>717231130
Ahh, I see, I missed that. Thanks. I see the ranged one has a cooldown, but I wanted to go melee and the melee skill has a cooldown. How much is that cooldown gonna screw me over?

>>717231823
I find that melee is reliant on putting points into your standard attack to give it enhancers that build rage and overwhelm, as well as debuff the enemy. You then use the cooldown skill to consume the charges of rage or overwhelm to smack them for big hurts. Overall it's not as spammy as ranged builds and requires a bit more finesse since you're also going to need to close distance to do damage while simultaneously dodge attacks, while ranged builds have much simpler footwork since they only need to maintain distance. In other words, melee builds are trickier. It is however quite viable, just more reliant on movement skills.

>>717228092
Would.

>>717233372
You're a cock-gobbling homo aren't ya?

>>717233552
And?

Can this be played offline?

>>717235426
It doesn't have multiplayer at all at the moment, so yes, I believe so.

>>717202203
>TQ1 always felt lie it was lacking in skill points for any build I'd want to use compared to other arpgs
I would argue that TQ AE gives you too many skill points. There are no choices to be made past the early game, you'll be able to max everything important.

>>717232964
>while ranged builds have much simpler footwork since they only need to maintain distance
Is there an ARPG that this issue doesn't plague?
Melee characters get to pussy foot around dodging aoes to be able to do damage, and in return they get the privilege of having worse mobility because ARCHERS = ELVES = MOBILE

>>717207093
>BG3 voice actors
I agree, BG3 voice actors always ruin the control scheme in any game they're hired to voice.

>>717189586 (OP)
are they going to add mercenaries/companions you can recruit?
Having a qt3.14 that comments on things and that you can dress up is always nice

>>717237113
Diablo 2 melee builds don't need to dodge anything so long as resistances aren't negative. They generally live off life leech.

>>717227954
I always felt that PoE1 is borderline unplayable. I don't like the way areas look and its combat is just not enjoyable. Searing Bond might be the only skill that was satisfying to use because you move to deal damage instead of spamming a single button.

>>717237976
What about poe2?

Does it have ragdolls

>>717238032
I didn't play it because I didn't like PoE1. But its production value does look unmatched for the genre.

>Endgame is just killing the same boss over and over
Just like the good ol' days

>>717199317
if ur really tight on money why even buy it. just pirate it. its not a always online thing so should be fine

>>717237976
>because you move to deal damage
There are endless ways to do that with many skills

>>717201523
basically all the usual talked about arpgs r basically "good enough". d4 le gd poe etc. after it depends on u what u actually want from the game. poe is a generational game like wow if u have the poe autism needed to enjoy the game. d4 is fine if u have like 2 hrs per week to game. le is in the middle and currently great to play offline ssf. gd is similar offline and good for couple hundred hrs and even more if u mod it. d2r is still a good game and has mods too

>>717239448
Warfarer + Rogue? That's what I'm doing. How's your AOE game though? I only just started and am kinda struggling to clear quickly, though I do kill tougher enemies quickly, but it kinda sucks when I'm surrounded.

>>717238060
no
and no gibs

>>717244014
Just spin, bro.

>>717246729
I don't really have the points to invest properly into that while getting my poison and vitality leech shit.

>>717246848
Respec is so cheap and accessible that I just change for bosses and exploring/fighting groups.

>>717239448
>>Endgame
There is no endgame, the game isn't finished, you payed for EARLY access.

raxx said there wont be endgame until postlaunch
