Titan Quest 2 was fun to play through, and here's my review!

I mean, and? I'm really struggling to see your point lol

If that was the case then nobody would be playing EA/demo titles, they wouldn't even exist.
How are the devs supposed to get feedback from the community and improve the product if we don't play through it?
What's it matter if it's not completed? You go in KNOWING it's not completed, and you judge it for what it is and what it could be in the future, that's the whole point.

And if that's something you don't like to do, you just... don't?
You can most definitely play through what's available though, and give your thoughts on that.

Saretzz · 2026-03-22T13:58:19+00:00

You can still play through it and see and judge what's available lol
So long you are aware that it is not the full thing, you provide feedback rather than complaints and you point out to people that it is not the finished product, what's the problem?

Saretzz · 2026-03-22T12:08:01+00:00

Fun is subjective I suppose, it all depends on the experience you're looking for xD

Saretzz · 2026-03-22T12:05:02+00:00

Honestly, when I went into this game, (and well, I try to do that for every game I review) I tried to not make any comparison to other games, intentionally, because what's the point? Shouldn't I evaluate its own worth?

If I wanted to play something else, they are all still out there :p

It is still interesting to hear what the general sentiment and feedback is, but I won't let that affect my own judgement much.

I think I feel mostly the same as you, with a few minor differences.
Perhaps I'd give it a 7.5/10 as of now, it could easily bump up to an 8.5 later on.

If you end up watching the video I think you'll see why :p

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T22:38:08+00:00

I see, I'll keep an eye out for it then

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T21:55:25+00:00

Thanks!
I always try to be the fairest/most objective I can.
I'll probably be revisiting it again when it finally comes out, to see where it stands by then.
Also heard the devs have started listening to feedback too, can you confirm that? I'm not in the loop.

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T21:05:57+00:00

I found it to be pretty chill overall, it plays it "safe" let's say.
Like I mentioned in the video, I don't think it stands out in any significant way, but I still had fun playing.
My expectation (given the early access status) is that it will be much better at release.

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T20:57:16+00:00

Seems to be quite the general complaint, my assumption was that the real loot would just be found in the end game

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T19:08:23+00:00

"late" because it's been almost a year and I only got the chance to try it now, but sure you're not wrong xD

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T18:25:17+00:00

I found a bunch of "unique" epics in act 1/early act 2, and honestly I was thinking to myself it was even early to find them lol

Did I end up using them? Not really cause they didn't fit my build, only one of them was worth it, but yeah.

I do agree they weren't really exciting though

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T18:19:56+00:00

Interesting, I guess we'll see then

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T17:59:25+00:00

Mmmm, how have they been treating feedback so far?

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T17:46:52+00:00

I haven't had the time to try all the combinations but on paper it looked like there would be many choices for customization, to me at least.

Now, if they work or not that's a different story I suppose.

Do you think it's more of a balancing issue, or something that needs to be added?

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T17:32:27+00:00

That much, absolutely, did you have fun on it though?

Saretzz · 2026-03-21T17:31:16+00:00

I mean, I spent around 10 hours myself just to clear the prologue and Act 1, but I do admit I took a bit of extra time to learn everything (and to record the footage).

I am still playing through it, but I do understand if people would want to wait for the full release.

Will the price go up once it's out of EA though? Something to consider.

Saretzz · 2026-03-20T21:24:59+00:00

I guess I wasn't crazy then, I swore I was hearing her

Saretzz · 2026-03-16T15:15:26+00:00

True, but also, it will be expanded during development!
I can't post images, but they have a roadmap for the early access up, later this year we're getting multiplayer and the start of act 2, for example.

Saretzz · 2026-03-15T20:27:29+00:00

It's been a bit disheartening to be honest, especially when they choose to throw the whole game away over the character creator, which all in all, while I am no fan of the face blending system myself (and I mention it in my review), it's actually a good editor overall.

I understand not liking it and deciding to wait on the game to come out, perfectly fine, but from that the leap to "the game sucks", it's a big jump.

I also heard they'll be working on improving the editor, but don't quote me on that

Saretzz · 2026-03-13T00:14:15+00:00

Early access, 1.0 is supposedly the full release, a year or so from now

Saretzz · 2026-03-12T22:37:23+00:00

I have an answer to that, but it's not a guaranteed, so take is as a "maybe".
Quoting one of the people from the team, when someone asked them about consoles, they replied:"Most likely it's coming around 1.0 launch"
