These dramatic changes have made for an amazing new experience, and one that really adds something amazing to the series.
Titan Quest
Titan Quest is an innovative mythological action-RPG that pits you into an epic quest of good vs evil set in the beautifully-designed lands of ancient Greece, Egypt and Asia. In this game, the mighty Titans have escaped their supposely eternal prison to cause unspeakable chaos on the inhabitants of Earth but unfortunately, the Gods aren't able to interfere directly and put a stop to the Titans' rampage. Instead, they searched for a hero who can help save the world - you!With many legendary heroes like Agamemnon and Achilles accompanying you in various legs of your journey, you will need to hone your fighting skills so you can defeat all the enemies that come your way, be it the famed villains and creatures of Greek mythology or even the Titans themselves. You'll also get to completely customize your character from head to toe. Interestingly, aside from its map editor where you can create whole new maps to adventure in, the game even has a multiplayer mode where you can group up with up to six other players for some cooperative gameplay.
Titan Quest is an impressive specimen of a game where you get to play out all the incredible mythlogical and legendary stories you've heard countless times in your youth while being in the shoes of the hero himself! That said, some players have reported having troubles with game-breaking bugs in the Steam version. Thus, if you can experience the game on any other platform, maybe you might want to try those instead.
