Best game of all time, and now they will be adding proper mod support!

I love Titan Quest, but this DLC is unfortunately average at best and due to some really bad things, I just can't recommend it.

Let's start with the good things:
The story isn't bad though it's nothing groundbreaking when compared to the previous storylines of this game

The visuals of the map are amazing until you get to Egypt where it's just the same old Egypt

It's still Titan Quest, if you love Titan Quest, you will enjoy this DLC at least to some small degree no matter what (like I did)


Unfortunately, there's not much else to say when it comes to the good side of things, so about the bad ones that definitely outweigh the good ones:
The map design and layout are confusing as ♥♥♥♥. Seriously, you can never tell where you're supposed to go. It's even worse when you actually want to explore everything and do every side-quest because you can never tell which way is the path that progresses you further in the main quest and which path leads to a side-quest. Both paths will look like the main quest path or neither will. This will lead to you backtracking over and over again to make sure you won't miss anything.

FPS drops and stutters - this has never been an inssue for me in previous DLCs or in the main game, started just in this DLC

Straight up awful map design choices where at times, a huge cliff will obstruct your entire screen, preventing you from seeing anything and what's worse, it will prevent you from clicking ANYWHERE! making you completely stuck, unless you can somehow use a spell on a monster to get out or click on an item to collect it and move that way.

Exploring dungeons/caves or even outside areas is boring and unrewarding (and still suffer from the same map design issue of being too confusing). You will enter a cave that you would expect to be a small cave with maybe a chest on the end, taking up maybe 2 minutes of your time. But nope, instead you enter a random cave in the middle of nowhere that turns out to be a 40 minute adventure that has a random Hero monster boss at the end that you will kill in a few seconds, he will drop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and behind him there's maybe one Ornamental chest that will also drop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. And every single ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cave is like that in this DLC for some reason. No cave is small and no cave is interesting. There are no sidequests in these caves or special rewards. Same goes with some outside locations. You will spend an hour in some location that takes you so long to clear that you would get halfway through Greece in the meantime, but in this case, the whole location is just random bone piles and basic chests with generic enemies and you will find nothing special and you won't progress in any sidequests (or even begin any).

Also both the minimap and the map itself have somehow become more unclear as to relaying information on where you can and can't go. You will take a peek at the minimap and you see a section that looks like you can obviously walk through there, so you walk over there and surprise, surprise! You can't. And it's not just the minimap that's confusing, it's the world itself. For example there's a really narrow, shallow stream of water in the middle of nowhere, in any other case (in other DLCs or the main game, you would be able to cross that stream), But nope, not here. All of this once again becomes more frustrating if you play this game in the same manner that I do, meaning that you try to explore everything.

All of the side-locations that had no special/interesting loot or bosses or side-quests just made the whole experience way more tedious that it needed to be. Just because there's more to explore, it doesn't mean there's more to do, or that it makes the game better overall.

I will always love Titan Quest but this DLC could've been handled differently.

One of the best games to just chill and maybe watch a movie or tv show on your second screen. It's also quite satisfying.

The game doesn't function, crashes on startup and none of the "fixes" online work

Pros:
OMG tmodloader on steam

Cons:
As of right now 32 bit only
As of right now no 1.4

I'm recommending this, but beware that if you want to run multiple big mods, it will crash on you and also you won't have 1.4 content.

I know that the devs already said that they are working both on 1.4 and 64 bit, but since there's no ETA I have to point out these problems.

I bought this game for the gameplay, I swear!

Least favorite part of the trilogy according to the majority, but honestly.. I love it the most.

Everytime I want to get a seizure.. I go to this game.
9/11 Would get seizure again.

Most catchy clicker game, I've ever played, even after 150+ hours, I still enjoy, mostly because it basically does things, without me, but indeed awesome clicker game!
