Dear Crate,
I love the original game and the expansion. Great work on both. I’ve already sunk > 800 hours, and I don’t regret any of it. But, I have two suggestions, especially after AoM.
- More portals or smaller areas. I’m very, very, glad you guys put out such a huge expansion. We definitely got more than our money’s worth. Titan Quest had a problem with very large areas in between portals. Grim Dawn alleviated this quite a bit, but not entirely (I’m thinking of that huge space between the Blood Grove and Darkvale Gate portals). But some of the area in AoM are just freaking huge - especially the Malmouth Outskirts. Mogdrogen help you if you die in the actual Malmouth suburbs, you’ve got a marathon before you can find your corpse marker.
One way to help the mortality-prone players would be smaller, but more, distinct areas between portals, or just more portals. It’s bad enough I died; I get annoyed that I have to run for five minutes just to get back to my grave marker. Because the areas respawn when I log out of GD, it makes it harder to plan my day. I do things other than play GD on my weekends, and it would be nicer to have more portals so I don’t have to fight / run through large areas just to pick up where I left off.

I it would be nice to have a scroll in / out feature added to the portal map. The world area was already pretty big, and it’s kind of annoying to scroll around in the portal map - especially when you died in the Malmouth Outskirts, but you respawn in Fort Ikon.
If you can’t make the portal map scrollable, can you make it larger? -
Since I’m talking about maps, it would be nice to be able to add our own markers on the game map. That way, I could remember where my quest giver is when I finally find what they were asking for.
That’s it for now. Thanks for making a great game. I’ve got my fingers crossed on a second expansion.
