Played about four hours of early access Titan Quest 2 this weekend.
It's not bad for an early access title.
The engine itself looks great. The voice acting I've heard is to notch. There are only four available masteries right now and the controls feel a little weird. I tried with kb/m but gave up and switched to XBox controller. I didn't see anything that told you what the controls were other than occasional onscreen prompts. I briefly looked for a way to remap but didn't find one.
For accessibility, it has three different colorblind modes and a "neophyte" difficulty setting. I didn't dig much deeper than that.
I was always terrible at the first Titan Quest but loved the world. I was much better at Grim Dawn.
The new Titan Quest 2 team seems to be trying to pay homage to the original while adding their own ideas. I'm not sure I like how they've complicated the skill masteries. But I'm only four hours in. And I had to restart half way through that because I couldn't get my the first boss on normal difficulty and had to start over to lower it.
I know I should just "get good" but I'm over 50 and don't feel like it.
I haven't tried it on my Steam Deck yet. I've heard it works great which is more than I can say for Grim Dawn.
