Man I've been working so hard on my backlog. I finally got around to playing Titan Quest which I'd heard really good things about, but god this game is boring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For those of you that have played it I'm halfway through or so in egypt. I just finished The Adventures of Van Helsing recently(sequels almost out btw) Loved it and wanted another Diablo "clone". I figured I'd clear Titan Quest out of the backlog but I have some major complaints about this game.
The story sold me on there being god fights and titans and such. I've fought one cyclops and one medusa out of my 15-20 hours. The enemies while very occasionally interesting get extremely repetitive. You fight the same enemies over and over for what seems like forever. It would be ok if you fought hordes of enemies but you never do. The game for some reason only ever has enemies in little pockets of five or so. Go kill 5 guys, walk over to the left. kill 5 guys again etc etc.
The loot drops dont make any sense. I get crap on bosses and like some random guy in the woods will drop an incredibly rare weapon, but thats very rare you mainly just get bombarded by garbage and money. Money you can't spend on anything because all the shops suck.
Lastly the story and NCP's are just mindnumbingly dull. I'm halfway through and not a single thing of interest has happened and not one NPC has made me laugh or remotely care.
I just had to put in my two cents. For once I think I'm just gonna drop this dude in the fuck it category unless someone can tell me why I shouldn't. I have a high tolerance for crap games. I really liked necrovision and I thought Alpha Prime was fucking hilariously bad. I actually finally beat Hard Reset last week and despite having an incomprehensible plot I still liked it, but I have a really low tolerance for repetitive grindy nonsense I guess . How you guys can do this in MMO's in beyond me.
