I'm double posting here, see discount thread, but I'm dying of curiosity. Is there any validity to Titan Quest actually coming here? It's on sale elsewhere right now.

No info about that. I suggest you buy from GG and if released on GOG then buy here again.

Gamers Gate have it DRM free, and it is even on -75% right now: http://www.gamersgate.co.uk/DD-TQPACK/titan-quest-gold-edition-bundle

Ooooh just saw my lil' red light light up! Thanks for pointing this out, but I'm usually reluctant to make accounts to join places :( Do you know how many years and how many great games and sales I missed out on before I finally joined GoG??? ;) The ones that still hurt to this day: The D&D "bundle" and NOT getting FO 1 / 2 / Tactics. I still cry a little every time I think of that. Appreciate you thinking of my post though!

See my post above - http://www.gog.com/forum/general/will_torchlight_2_be_selling_on_gog/post88

I guess I have no hard evidence to suggest so, but Nordic seems to be one of the few bigger publishers willing to bring more games to GOG

I wouldn't hold my breath for any release of Torchlight 2. From what I've seen, Runic have pretty much stopped development on the game. There hasn't been a patch in over a year, there's no discussion about any future plans (beyond a "super secret project"), and several key people within Runic have left for other opportunities.

I'd also advise against buying Torchlight 2 for Multiplayer. When it works, it's fantastic. It doesn't work all that often though. At some point in development, they introduced a desyncing issue in Multiplayer that results in the people in the game to pretty much be playing completely separate games. The other players will start behaving weirdly (due to the desync), monsters will stop attacking you, everyone will be seeing different things and there's no way to recover from it. I don't know how wide spread the issue is but it's happened every single time I've ever tried MP in Torchlight 2. To my knowledge, Runic has never fixed the issue maintaining that it's a Router issue with player's Routers.

I've actually never seen it work - and Router explanation is bullshit when you play via virtual LAN tunnel. It's a real shame, action RPGs are not all that difficult to get network code working properly.

II still have the disc so I'm going to hold off buying it there.

I've gotten a session or two to work, but that's it.

To me, it seems like Runic just took the money from TL2 and moved on. Why they'd never fix MP or put out an expansion or anything baffles me.

Have you tried it on any OS above Windows XP?

I got 123 or more hours on TL2. Probably played about 5 hours with another 2 friends, the other 115 hours on SP leveling my Mage to 100, Engineer to 76 and trying to get some damned Legendaries. the Legendaries I got so far are for Berzerkers.

Downloaded the Synergies mod which adds unbelievable amount of content. That's the closest thing to an expansion for TL2. New classes, new pets, new bosses, new act, new spells, new raid dungeons which you can't waypoint-scum your way through, new items, new set items, and probably other stuff I've not seen yet.

I'll double-dip TL2 probably even at full price if it comes to GOG drm-free.

Seems to be running just fine in Win 8, too. ;)

How is just the singleplayer mode on Torchlight 2? I've read in this thread that TL2 had some kind of DRM-only multiplayer. But wouldn't the game still be good if it just had DRM-free singleplayer?

It's the same game in single and multiplayer, the only difference being one player versus more than one player. :) The multiplayer requires an account on Runic's server to log into to set up the game online. I don't remember if there is LAN multiplayer or not but I can check if necessary. If you play online though the games have to be set up through your Runic account which is pretty much like the majority of multiplayer games these days really.

But it's the same game single player or multiplayer in the end. I enjoy both personally.
