I never played TQ in multi-player (I was years behind everyone else on discovering it), but having played D2 and Mythos I’d rather have the Mythos style online play than the Diablo style. On the plus side, now we just have to count down the months until the MMO hits alpha testing to get it!

That’s a valid point, perhaps it’s just my experience with this genre especially that makes me crave multiplayer so much. Games like Titan Quest, Diablo 2, and Diablo 1 all featured some sort of multiplayer…

Good times.

This is a good review, and it points out a few annoyances that I missed in my own review, but I have to argue on the multiplayer point: there’s a big difference between a single player game that is made to be a single player game and a single player game that is only single player because the devs just couldn’t make it work. For example, I loved the Thief games, and would have loved to have a co-op mode of some sort in it, but the lack of multiplayer didn’t make it any worse of a game.
