<a href=http://www.ign.com>IGN</a> have posted a <a href=http://pc.ign.com/articles/683/683160p1.html>trailer</a> for the upcoming action RPG accompanied by an interview with Brian Sullivan, who seems to be heading up the team behind it. Here's IGN's utterly baffling blurb about the game since the interview is pretty boring:<blockquote>When it comes to hack and slash, the PC has generally been pretty well taken care of over the years. <b>But recently, the number of action/RPG games that focus on fast combat against huge odds and item collection have been fewer and farther between.</b> Iron Lore is hoping to take advantage of the lull with their first title as a company, Titan Quest.</blockquote>What the hell are they smoking over at IGN? That's all we get in "RPGs" these days. Just face it, this is yet another run-of-the-mill action RPG, but hey, it's got great graphics!

I hope the character system is nice, the setting sounds good.

It has a static world, so hopefully it's large and open like Sacred.

If it doesnt have either of those things, this might as well be Dungeon Lords.

The setting is the only thing that is selling this game for me.

IGN is composed of idiots. That comment doesn't surprise me. Complete and utter dumbfucks.

Are they idiots, or is it an ingenious "These aren't the droids you're looking for" Jedi mind trick. This isn't the same game thats been released in a myriad of forms recently, this is a break in the lull!!!1!


No, yeah, they're idiots.

Having watched it, They really blew it with the trailer.

A quick rundown for people too busy:
Hey this isn't your everyday action RPG, stuff flies in the air! And Lightning Hits Stuff! And Lightning Hits Stuff and it Flies in the AIR! And did we mention stuff FLIES IN THE AIR!?! HOLY CHRIST DID YOU SEE THAT LIGHTNING HIT STUFF? ZOMG IT GOT HIT WITH LIGHTNING AND IT FLEW IN THE AIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH AND FIRE TOO!!!!

Ok maybe thats only funny if you actually watch the trailer...

Nah even then it probably isn't.

i can do this stuff with reality factory freewarer and ancient .3ds models.....

.
You'll notice a lot of great features here like the grass effects, rag doll physics on all of the creatures, beautiful textures, and nifty spell effects.



from what i see, beyond the "wow....it flies when i hit it!" feature..... there is going to be nothing new here.... i hate to tell these dweebs, but.... is anyone playing beyond divinity now? How about Sacred? and check just how many are still playing the original ( at least 35k per server.....) These guys need to get over diablo 2.....they are just not gonna match it.

Well, at least they aren't really trying to pass this game off as anything other than what it is. Looks like some light diversion in a cool setting. Might wait for it to hit the bargain bin though.
