Hey guys.

I'm seriously considering buying this version of TQ, although i already have the boxed copy of Gold.

My question is: How does the Anniversary Edition compares to Gold when it comes to unnoficial patches?

Why should i buy this version instead of just playing regular Gold + 1.17a?
(Online a.k.a. NOT LAN multyplayer doesn't really matter for our group)

Did the devs merge the fixes found in the unnoficial patch v1.17a or did they just "haha whops" like Bethesda, who "forgot" to implement the fixes present in the Unnoficial Skyrim Patch for the Special Edition re-release?

Yes, had said nowaday main modder of fanpatch. This is a good remake.
I don't know why http://www.titanquest.net/forums/ is forbidden now.

I've never played GOLD, but this is suppose to be the complete version with all of the good fan patches included. You can find the complete list of patches somewhere on this discusion forum. Plus more patches are still coming out.
I'm a fan of these games and this is one of my favorites. I have about 2-weeks time of gamplay on this. This is what I mostly play all the time.
