Pacing is perhaps Titan Quest‘s biggest problem though it just feels too drawn out. You’re supposed to be able to manually select an enemy to attack by holding the attack button and rotating the left analogue stick, but unfortunately it doesn’t always work. You can have four Minotaurs reigning down blows upon you, but for some reason your character will decide to attack a Satyr archer on the other side of the screen, desperately trying to walk through their foes to reach them. How the game decides which enemy should be highlighted is beyond me though, as it often makes no sense. Holding down the attack button forces your character to pursue and attack whichever enemy is highlighted. The situation gets a little better as you progress through the game thanks to you unlocking extra space, but it’s still not ideal.Įven combat isn’t always as enjoyable as it should be, thank to Titan Quest‘s less than stellar targeting system. Your only option to optimise your inventory space is to press a ‘sort’ button, which doesn’t always arrange them as you’d like. Here, however, you still have the same square based inventory system that requires you to move items around to fit new ones in, only, you can’t move items manually. For Diablo 3, Blizzard made the wise choice of allowing console players to simply pick up a set number of items before becoming overburdened.
Little issues like the dire mini-map are insignificant next to the more pressing problems that Titan Quest on console has, like troublesome inventory management. Saying that, it’s not as if there’s an abundance of side-quests to be discovered, though. It gives you a general idea of where you are on any given map, sure, but icons that signify quest givers and the like are so tiny that you’re highly likely to miss them. The revamped HUD is pretty nice too, though the mini-map that sits in the top-right corner of the screen is essentially useless.
It’s no Diablo 3 or Path of Exile, but it’s certainly not an eyesore. It’s Titan Quest‘s improved lighting and special effects that make it passable as a current-gen game, however, despite them seemingly glitching from time to time. It’s only when you zoom in that things become less attractive, but given the game’s age that’s understandable. At its standard zoomed-out camera perspective, textures are quite sharp and animations are fluid. Or at least better than you’d expect, anyway. Unlike the latest Diablo game to appear on consoles, however, the mighty Diablo 3, Titan Quest hasn’t been quite so well adapted for its new home. After creating a character it has you adventuring across Ancient Greece, Egypt and more, killing and looting with reckless abandon as you seek to put a halt to the machinations of the Titans which have unleashed an army of monsters upon the world. And considering that it’s over 10 years old, it’s not half bad.Īs Diablo clones go, Titan Quest was, and still is, one of the best. But still, the important thing is that Titan Quest is now available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. What we have here though is a review of the console version of Titan Quest, which for some reason doesn’t include the extras that Titan Quest: Ragnarok brought into play. Then, ten years later, it inexplicably received another expansion: Titan Quest: Ragnarok. A year later it was expanded upon with Titan Quest: Immortal Throne.
