Titan Quest Reviews
Titan Quest was a reference of Action-RPG. And currently it remains. But the passage of time and a poor adaptation weigh down the experience of this adaptation.

Titan Quest lands on the Nintendo Switch as a remaster of a game that originally saw the light of day twelve years ago. While its visual environment is certainly outdated, despite some technical improvements, Titan Quest's gameplay still retains some interest and its local and online multiplayer modes are definitely enjoyable. Despite all that, the game still feels fairly repetitive and it does not stand on the top of the scale of action RPG.

Since Titan Quest was released on PC we've got many better games in hack 'n' slash genre. This one lacks dynamic battles, controls are mediocre at best and there is many technical problems.

This new version of Titan Quest shows so many failures and problems about graphic and technique, maybe due to the low quality of the whole work done too fast and with fewer contents than the previous editions, alas.

It's not perfect, but with Diablo 4 yet to be officially announced, Titan Quest on console will scratch the loot-based action RPG itch that many gamers may be feeling, albeit with some frustrations along the way.
Despite suffering from some unoptimized console controls, bland combat, and boring level design, Titan Quest is a serviceable RPG in the vein of Diablo and Baldur's Gate.
A perfectly average dungeon crawler with hours of gameplay to offer, Titan Quest's flaws are too numerous to properly recommend it above and beyond its genre counterparts.
Titan Quest is a classic PC Action-RPG that is badly adapted to Xbox One. Despite maintaining its virtues as the first day, its performance complicates the player's experience, especially those who did not know the original 2006 game.

Taking everything into account, including its surprisingly high asking price, and considering the title’s age, Titan Quest on the Switch is simply not a very good deal. I’m trying not to be cynical but given the lack of anything from this general genre on the console this feels like little more than an attempt to capitalize on Diablo fans starved for a shot at even a facsimile of that play in a portable form before something less dated (and hopefully showing more care) arrives. Despite my misgivings with the care and quality of the port this is still a very playable game that offers a reasonably good experience considering there currently are no alternatives. Regardless, given at least one other competitive title that’s planned for Switch in the coming months I’d be more inclined to advocate a “wait and see” attitude and hold out little longer before taking the plunge.
Terrible controls, outdated gameplay with a bad loot drop system and many bugs make Console Edition of Titan Quest a mess.

Titan Quest was better remembered as a decent hack'n'slash on PC than a mediocre Diablo clone on consoles: this version is clearly rushed out and it doesn't do any justice to a title that's been fun and engaging for the last twelve years.

If you do have a friend with a PS4 and a copy of the game you could spend hours of enjoyment rolling back the years, but otherwise I would just let the past be the past and move on with your gaming life
Titan Quest is a fantastic game that is unfortunately poorly realised on consoles. While there's a lot to praise here, it had its time back in 2006 and if it was looking to bring it back it would have to put in a little more effort than just the same game with clunkier gameplay.
Let's be brutally honest: this new edition of Titan Quest is simply terrible. Technically it's a disaster, with a constant flow of bugs and glitches that seriously undermine the game experience (there are still references to the keyboards commands). It's too bad, because the original game was a great hack 'n slash.

The best similitude I can make regarding the remastered version of Titan Quest is that of a game that attempts to sneak into an era that has long passed it by. While a minimal amount of enjoyment can be had listening to the wayfarers and tradesmen across the many worlds that the hero visits, there are too many problems that stem from the game's now ancient design. While titles like Shadow of the Colossus can confidently hold their own in a decade that they were not intended for, it may be a bittersweet sign of the swift progression in the industry that most titles are just not good enough anymore.
To sum it all up. Titan Quest is a boring, ugly and downright obnoxious pile of garbage that shouldn’t have even seen the light of day. With nothing really going for it and without even a sense of “its so bad its good” this is the kind of game you should wait till you see it free to play. Even then? i wouldn’t fucking bother. Just go outside. see your family. Maybe even find true love. This just isn’t for gamers or the human race as a whole.
An admirable ARPG gets lost in a less than thoughtful Switch port.
Titan Quest is fun for a few hours with a friend, but after that there is no reason to return to the field of battle.
In sum, the surprise release of the fourth DLC is great news for anyone that enjoys this game. There is enough quality content in Eternal Embers to warrant a purchase, but it’s also clear that it’s time for Titan Quest to get a full-blown, AAA-level sequel. The bones of Titan Quest are still excellent, but they are very much showing their age in some respects. I don’t think anyone would disagree that it’s time for a proper sequel to be the next big news we hear about Titan Quest. Until then, though, it’s easy to recommend Eternal Embers to anyone that wants to take on another epic quest in the Titan Quest universe.
