    There's a <A href="http://www.2404.org/reviews/1284/Titan-Quest-Review">review</a> of <A href="http://www.titanquestgame.com">Titan Quest</a> over at <A href="http://www.2404.org">2404</a>. It's mostly positive, though the score is only <b>7.7/10</b>. Here's a generic clip:
    <br>
    <blockquote>Overall, Titan Quest is a fun, action-filled hack-and-slash marathon that will keep those who like this style of game playing through the end. While they did include some multiplayer functionality, it is still entirely too early to see how the create-your-own-world functionality will pan out. Still, playing the single player campaign online is certainly one way to ensure you get to experiment with the other character types. While somewhat of a bear in terms of system requirements, I was able to play the game with most of the graphical options turned up making for a very beautiful and occasionally relaxing experience. Boasting over 30 hours of play time, multiple difficulty levels and an online component, Titan Quest offers enough gameplay content to make it worth a look.</blockquote>

    The editors will probably keep the game going for a while if they're decent editors. Lesser games have been kept alive for that reason alone.

    imo this game could have been one of the best roguelikes ever if it was more difficult. It annoys me that lately many games are spoiled because of this.

    Well, it depends on how good you have developed your character.
    Some people complaning about dying all the way... at least, on difficulties above normal.
    Anyway, it's indeed among the best Diablo-clones so far.
    Does not make it RPG one bit, but still.

    The game is difficult in Legendary. Not before, though. :/
