You should be able to run Titan Quest, Adrius.  I've had it and its expansion for a long time now and I highly recommend it.  Although, now that Sacred 2 is out, I'd recommend that over Titan Quest.  Unfortunately, I think you'll have difficulty running it so I'd stick with Titan Quest.

Titan Quest is absolutely no problem for my comp, I was actually asking about Diablo 3's system requirements, but apparently they haven't been released yet...

Thanks anyway, I mean, I can get both after all

It's been so long since I bought a game now...

Quote:
I do begin to suspect that you never played seriously on a roleplaying realm...

Well, I had one character on RP-realm which I bothered to level 50+ but nothing RPish never happened there as I remember. Guess it was just one sucky RP-realm
Then I had many chars on different RPPvP-servers (Role-playing-player-versus-player, was it?) but that was basically same as PvP; I don't think anyone minded that 'RP'-prefix.

Quote:
They also raid the Forsaken starting zone and RP in the Plaguelands.


Well, that's just mean to camp low levels.

Quote:
+ there are "forbidden" areas
Like Mount Hyjal or the Emerald Dream.

I've not been to Emerald Dream. Was it that where you have to kill some ??-level dragons to get there? Anyway I never participated in any of these dragonslayings.
But I've been to Mount Hyjal, the raid instance Mount Hyjal as well as the illegal Mount Hyjal where you're not allowed enter but in the early years of WoW you were able to exploit from that winter place.
Afterwards they made some blockages to prevent getting there. But I wished to go there again and tried that and I surpassed these blockages after spending nice deal of time and nerves with them, only to realize a very evil trick: Immediately after you get the 'Mount Hyjal' -message on the screen you get teleported back to the winter place.

Quote:
But I doubt you explored the whole "legal" world. I have been playing for totally around 2 years (counting breaks) and still not seen everything in the whole world.

Well, I explored everything that was explorable, places that have name and you get exp for exploring them.
But I have to admit that I didn't clear every raid instance.
And I also played approx. 2 years and quitted +1 year ago.

Quote:
Well, the gathering proffessions doesnt require money or much work (you do it while you level). Its just the training that costs and its not really much. I mean, you get hides and herbs and cloth when you level and kill enemies etc.

I particularly meant the other professions (don't remember names, not the gathering professions but the others) like engineering, blacksmithing, enchanting. It was very hard, slow and expensive to level up them when you were 20-30 levels away from the maximum.

thanks for mentioning titanquest. its everything i ever wanted and more.
very similar to everquest in a few aspects.
except for the fact that the game closes out when you die... thats just annoying
or when you try to right click anything

The Emerald Dream was hidden area which was not meant to be accesed
There was an instance trigger underneath Mount Hyjal which teleported you there. You had to make "fake lag" to go there.

And I know, that teleport debuff sucks
I can never ever visit the current Hyjal again.

But the Battle of Mount Hyjal raid is pretty cool since its based on a Warcraft 3 mission (the last mission - "Twilight of the Gods" or something like that)


The only "main" proffession that is "hard" and really expensive is Enchanting in my opinion.
You just see mining veins etc on the mini-map when you level.




However some proffessions are horrible in some levels... for example, leveling 250-300 tailoring was HORRIBLE and costed me like 100-200g (I was level 60 and had just bought my epic mount so it was expensive) because I was lazy.

Im glad that the proffessions in the next expansion starts at skill 350.

In most MMOs (most, not all) there is a monthly fee, so its nothing you can get away from sadly...
But a MMORPG is so huge and needs money to work and develop. Blizzard also gains 70-80 dollars per second only though WoW and they need it to develop our other favorite games
( aka Starcraft and Diablo and the unnanouched MMO that is set in a new universe)


Actually MMOs have monthly fees because it usually costs too much money to make profit from an MMO by just selling the game, since it usually costs alot to make an MMO and keeping the online servers up and running.

I would say Valve with Bioware in second place by a sliver.  Third I'd put Nival.








Just kidding.

Agreed.

EDIT: But I think this is kinda off-topic... so let's stop talking about ultimate gaming companies in here

I decided to pick up Fable 2 first since it's released on friday!!!!

I even have a devious plan to get my hands on that game just in the case of that the store doesn't sell M-rated games to minors! Lets just say that it's good to have helpful siblings .

I'm so EVIL! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

EA make some good games but they release them too often and it can often result in a lot of bad ones. they are just in it for the money and they don't try to put the time and effort that are required for most of the good games that are out. Take a look at Doom3 for example. That took several years to make, and what did we get? We got a kick arse game. If only some other companies took the time to make their games then there wouldn't be many crap ones being released.
