General Discussion / Re: Things that we don't like in this game
« on: 20 December 2017, 18:48:14 »
What I don't like is that there are no gore effects, even as a toggle option.

This. When I hit the enemy with my axe, I want him to be cleaved in two, falling in slow motion, while blood splatters all over the place.

Unfortunately, THQ was pretty resolute in what IronLore could and could not do, since they were determined to keep a T rating. In addition to nulling literal bloodshed, this also precluded human enemies. (THQNordic, of course, is under no such constraints.)

I personally don't really care about blood effects.

THQ Nordic / Re: Console versions in 2018

That's nice and all but I always felt these sort of games thrived on PC..

Heh my thoughts exactly.  I guess this can only be a good thing for Titan Quest in general with more attention and continued support for it, maybe TQII will be a possibility... but with Ragnarok covering Norse mythos where would THQNordic then take our beloved franchise??

I'm sure there's more to the Hellenic mythos that can be worked with, like the actual Titanes Theoi (Typhon wasn't one of those, "just" a monster). Of course, you're talking to someone who thinks the end boss of Act IV should have been Iapetos (Titan, associated with death...IronLore missed an opportunity there). I also wonder about Slavic lore...assuming you can find enough whose surviving records haven't been colored by Christian-era precepts, anyway. Mesopotamian mythos being actually represented (why'd we get Chimera, rather than Mushussu, in the Temple of Marduk?) would also be good.

i wonder how this pairs with rune mastery

At the very least, it doesn't get any of its damage turned to elemental by Transmutation. Probably because Transmutation looks for basic physical damage, and the knives are piercing/bleeding instead. This means the Bolt Trap also stays untransmuted.
