Looks to be really interesting, similar to the Everquest or WoW private servers with bots, or FFXIV’s NPC dungeons, but actually designed from the ground up to be a single player experience where the bots actually play with you. Sounds neat.
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!

There was a hack and slash game set in Ancient Greece that very much felt like a single player MMO due to its mechanics. I think it came out a few years before Titan Quest and had a third person perspective. I’ll try to find it again later.
If you remember please let us know 👍
It’s “Numen: Contest of Heroes”. The game actually came out three years after Titan Quest.
This is hardly the most highly regarded game in the world and flew very much under the radar of most players, but I liked it quite a bit back then (even though I’m not the biggest fan of MMOs), to the point that I wrote a short review praising it on a (now defunct) forum I was frequenting at the time. This review (not mine) on Steam sums up why it feels so much like an MMO:

I’m curious as to how well it holds up. Perhaps I’ll reinstall it later today.
Thanks!
