I’m a 39 years old veteran gaming loyalist backer of GD when it was just a wee baby. It was a struggle to play back then, but here we are now with it budding into an adolescent and learning to run where it had trouble walking before.
I’ve enjoyed it very much, and for a time I didn’t think it was going to make it…the devs went silent for a long time, and then one of them told us all he had had a baby, and I was thinking “wait, what about the game? KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS UNTIL GD IS DONE FFS!”
The day I saw GD appear on steam was a huge ray of light. I knew they were going to make it and deliver a quality experience. I was right. TQ is one of the best ARPGs made - a truly underplayed and underappreciated gem. The Druid class in that game was so amazing and powerful ( before they nerfed the sh*t out of it for some lame reason ). And now, I hope the Shaman mastery and Druid class in THIS game will be as powerful as the previous one was in TQ.
Nothing to stop you playing that game is there? Plenty of us here still do, it’s still my number one game. If you think normal play will be too boring for you there are plenty of mods to increase mobs/heroes/bosses which you can find at the forum at www.titanquest.net. Come on over and join us.
Oops forgot to say that if you do decide to become a member at TQ.net then you’ll need to make 3 posts in existing threads and have your status change from beginner to traveler before you gain full access to the site. It’s part of the anti-spam measures we had to put in place.
Hopefully someone over at TQ.net can help you, I know there are several people who have the Steam version and some I think are using Win 10. I’ve tried a search as I know I’ve seen some threads regarding getting the game to work with Win10, but the search engine isn’t bringing them up for me yet.
Try this:
Install DirectX 9.0c, some older games don’t like the newer versions.
Check your programme compatability. Right click on the TQ icon on your desktop and scroll down to Properties. Go to Compatability and select WinXP Service Pack 2. Also check run as Administrator. Click Apply, okay and then exit back to desktop.
Try the game again and see if this has fixed it.
Seems to have worked for someone else using Win10.
Thank you for undergoing that trouble and effort for me!
I was able to get it going, but I had to locate the root Steam directory on the HDD for that particular game’s .EXE file, and run it in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibility mode, as an administrator: and now it’s flawless
