Seems like a bunch of the old Iron Lore Entertainment have banded together and formed Crate Entertainment and with them they bring a new hack'n'slash game called "Grim Dawn"

As far as i can tell it'll be alot like Titans Quest, in the sense that you can pick two of five classes and then it'll let you pick from those two skill trees. And the loot is the good old diablo-style looting, though with some adjustments here and there.

Sounds good, I liked TQ well enough. I still need to finish that come to think of it.

Grim Dawn...? It's so easy that not good pun comes to mind. Just go lookup Grimdark :p

I like TQ, Torchlight has me back in the dungeon crawling mood, and Victorian England is a pretty sweet setting to base anything in.

I'm probably on board.

Well now I want this game to have Deep Crows or I'll be disappointed.

A new, $20 Diablo clone with multiplayer. I'm in.

But crows are Grimdark, so what would be Grimdawn? Wait, Dawn, as in 'Dawn of War' Grim as in 'the Grim Darkness of the future' obviously it's a game where you pick your Primarch and play though the Horus Heresy.

Eh, so they dropped the "Black Legion" game? :confused:

Remember looking at some concept/renders and it looked interesting....

Not digging the website and logo though.

I'd be more inclined to pre-order if they actually had more on the game up there, such as screen shots and concept art (even rough stuff).

Deep Roosters.

"...and look and behlod upon the face of a thousand beaks. I quivered in my place, unable to turn away from the madness beholden to me at that very moment. Where one would look to try and find something of sensible design in God's creation, there would be none. No, this beast was made before God, or anything else, came to be. It was ancient, and powerful. The gizzard slopped to the floor like a crimson sigil, marking the beasts head, but the razor beaks were legion upon it. Do not ask me to describe the beast in greater detail...I see nothing but in my nightmares and take what respite I can from the memory.

I'm hopefully going to play Titan Quest with Handmade Mercury in the near future. I'm glad to hear these guys have gotten back together and are working on a new project. The more indie PC developers, the better!

I could be convinced to play some TQ, it's a game I always enjoy but sputter out on in single player.

We need to play more Serious Sam as well. :p

Too true. Send me a message on Steam tonight / later this weekend if you're around.

Will do, and feel free to do the same. :)

Or, alternately, our power could go out all night and I could have to resort to tapping this out on my iPhone to let you know.

Sigh.

Maybe tomorrow. ;)

A buddy is coming over with pizza. I'm providing the beer, and he's going to buzz my hair. Don't sweat not being able to play. :)

You and your kinky parties.

More on topic:

I picked up Titan quest in the mid week madness sale so I would be up with playing with people too. I already owned the game but not the expansion so I decided to pick them up on steam for 5 bucks, it was CD version. It was during THQ's no DRM phase too so I don't think I even needed it in to play.

lol!

I love independent developers:

Will Grim Dawn have tons of sweet loot?

Does a bear shit in the woods?! We have made many improvements to our item drop and randomization system with far more custom-crafted magical, rare, and even unique bonuses.

I just started replaying TQ with a friend of mine. Downloaded that itemus thing to have a look.. my god there is a shit ton of unique / set loot in that game.
