WARNING - This game is not turn based as it claims. DO NOT BUY if you are expecting a turn-based game. This is .....(drumroll) Dark souls! What a shocker. Bonfires (flags) where you upgrade and reset the whole area if you rest. Millisecond dodge timing that has nothing to do with your reflexes but instead makes you learn every enemy's attack timings like some sort of history lesson.

Good game

Just another Dark Souls. Bad balance between mobs and bosses, just like every other Souls game.

Fun!

I really hope for Titan Quest 2, they add more interesting abilities than essentially Auto-Attacks and Passives. A game with a lot of untapped potential. I wouldn't recommend if you're looking for a mechanically interesting game, unless you plan to install some of the crazy mods people made for it. Looking forward to TQ2!

My one remaining big annoyance is the custom action bar, when you run out of an item, throw a weapon, or move an item to another character, it removes the item and any associated abilities from your action bar, I'd say I spend about 10% of my game time putting abilities back onto my action bar that the game decided to remove. And what's ESPECIALLY annoying about this, is that DOS:2 already fixed this issue with a simple setting, so why have they gone backwards for this game. This makes 2 of the legendary thrown weapons and the entire Eldritch Knight subclass completely unplayable.

Found the fix for CPU Heat issue at least:

So 3 main things I changed and now the game runs at 30 degrees instead of 80, performance is exactly the same.

1. Set the Windows 10/11 Power Mode to "Better Performance" (option in the system tray)
2. Turn off "game mode" in Windows Settings
3. Go to your power plan in control panel (powercfg.cpl) and set your maximum cpu to 99%

Epic game, can't wait for Elder Scrolls VI

Not much replayability, other than that it's pretty fun

Managed to play the first level as this is a vehicle level, but the rest of the levels are unplayable due to the foot controls.
