DII vs. Titan Quest
#8
For the record, I've played neither Titan Quest nor its demo. I just feel that heavily confrontational knee-jerk arguments generate better discussion than "Excellent points. I won't comment on anything specifically." I feel compelled to dig into the why Diablo II is better, and the best way to bring out reasons is generally to attack assumptions.

No, it's not the hell I made it out to be, but it's not the utopia you describe in comparison to Titan Quest. Addiction factor aside, I'd rate Diablo II maybe slightly above average. Diablo original was better in so many ways. Take out Stone Curse, Mana Shield, and maybe Chain Lightning, and it's almost balanced, after giving the baddies in hell a few dozen buffs.

I'll stick to my strategic games, though. They tend to have more replay value (for me). Diablo II, at heart, is always going to be "Click on something until it dies." And if I want to, say, handicap my character, or do some actual role-playing, I have to go WAY out of my way. Anyway, to each his own, I guess.
