What is it?
Players take the role of a hero and fight monsters in three ancient, mythological world settings including Sparta/Greece, Egypt and Silk Road/Asia. The game was conceived by Age of Empires co-creator Brian Sullivan and features ragdoll physics, full lighting effects, day-night cycles, ancient world mythology, modern 3D graphics, unique treasures, fast gameplay, and a world editor for players to rapidly create their own custom worlds, mods, and quests.
The game has a loot system where monsters can only drop items that they were using. After the player kills the monster the player can pick up the monster's items. The exception to this rule are rings, charms (which are invisible on the creature) and monster charms (which are a part of it, e.g. Raptor teeth and Turtle shells). However, drops are realistic, and the player is able to see what equipment will be dropped.
Features:
- The ability to specialize in up to two of 8 different skill sets, resulting in up to in 28 different classes
- Randomly-generated equipment, with some "unique" and "set" quality equipment that's largely static.
- Creatures and beasts based on myths and tales.
- Four Acts with real world locations.
- Three difficulty levels, Normal, Epic and Legendary. Each grow harder, but more rewards are found with a higher difficulty.
- On-Line play where one can trade, compete, and play together.
- Thousands of items dropped by enemies.
- Powerful map editing tools.
What Regicide says:
It's a pretty accurate Diablo 2 clone. You won't be farming demon bosses or anything though. You will travel through Greece, Egypt, Asia fighting monsters based on Greek myth. There isn't much of a story or characters
unfortunately but the game play is fun enough
especially with a group.
Bought it, liked it. Never played through more than half of act 1.
Same here.
I just can't play this type of game solo. I thought I could because I love the setting of this one so much but it just wasn't to be. I'd be all for a Game On.
People say it is short, anyone know how short? It would be kind of cool to get a full group of us to play together for once or twice a week at a predetermined time for, I don't know, two hours until we beat it.
It is actually the only game I own on Steam because it came with the expansion pack for $10 cheaper than anywhere else.
Where do I buy it?
Steam, of course! You can purchase the original game plus expansion for $19.99!
----
Our goal is quite simple, to get a group together and play the game for fun until we complete it. We would be starting new characters on the 'Normal' difficulty. Who knows? Maybe we'll even make it up to Legendary. I think that if we can manage to get four players, we'll start discussing scheduling.

I have played through most of Act I and I am enjoying myself but I
really want to play with other people, I am lonely! =( I have a Level 13 Hunter named Sansa Stark.

there are a few things you can do to get it working if it says the graphics card is not good enough to play the game. My solution was to disable the graphics card check and it plays fine now.

Also what's the deal with Titan Quest's multiplayer? Currently I gather the game is available on Steam, but not multiplayer servers?

If anyone tries out the demo, keep in mind that the full version is much more optimized and has better performance than the demo build.

How can you not like killing monsters for fat loot? With physics?
Afraid not. You can add your retail copies to the Steam games list, but in order to be able to actually be able to download it from Steam you have to have bought it from the Steam store.
There aren't any retail games to download off of Steam apart from Valve games, Prey, and possibly one or two other titles that I might be forgetting. Everything else has to be purchased directly from the Steam store.
I never played it, but I thought TQ was run off of local hosting?
I'll have to start a new character. My save games are gone.
So how many people can be in a single game? It's kinda important, cause if I were to play along, I'd like to fill whatever role is not at the table, so to speak. It would be kinda lame to have 5 hunters.
Yes Sir.
6 players.

I'd say so. Should we throw together a roster of who's who? I guess I'll make a Defense/whateverthehell.
I think that it might be.
And make that second V lower case, please.
Hit me up on steam though so we can get this out of the way when I am able to play: http://steamcommunity.com/id/dualedge

Buy the expansion!
I'll see what I can do, it's only like 20 bucks at Wal-Mart I think anyways.

Lack of credit card at the moment stops me from just buying it off Steam unfortunately.
