Pros
Pro Direct control
Allows player to take a direct control of a vehicle, or infantryman (followed by their squad if any), which allows player to take the most important shots themselves, or to park their units into more pristine spots. Even if AI seems to fare well on its own, the more elaborate plans can be conducted by simply using this function.
Pro Fully destructible environments
This can make for a visceral feel as well as an immersive one as everything in the game can be blown to bits.
Pro Punishing
Definitely one of the more time and effort requiring RTS, which you cannot simply take off the shelf and do well in, without past experience. Bullets hurt, weapons are fairly accurate, yet do miss their marks occasionally, and explosions are going to demolish infantry.
Pro Holds up incredibly well
Titan Quest is over 10 years old now, and it is still widely played. It even saw a remastered "Anniversary Edition" in August of 2016, drawing in more players, old and new.
Pro You can choose the speed you want to play at
Titan Quest is unique among ARPGs in that you get to choose the game speed. You can be a leisurely player and take things slowly, or you can go hard and play the game on very fast settings. The fact that you get to choose adds another level of enjoyment to the game.
Pro Replayability through different classes
There are a plethora of classes that open up upon leveling to the second level, once one is chosen the others will be gone for that game session. This means that a different playthrough will be needed to explore what all the different classes offer, making for quite a lot of playtime.
Pro Lots of loot to find
There is quite a lot of loot in the game to be found, which drives the player to continue playing, just to find that better weapon or piece of armor. The loot is also color coded when dropped, making it easy to discern what is worth picking up or leaving behind.
Pro Tons of customization
There are 30 different classes of characters to choose from within the game with 150 character skills that they can learn. This way users can customize their character to their liking and playstyle.
Cons
Con Non-existent story and unbalanced
The story is the same for all factions, same layout, same script. There's a lot of things that many new players will think are useless, such as creating a defense with barbed wire and mines. It's really unbalanced, considering you can take out a tank destroyer with 200 mm of armour with an armoured car with a 37 mm gun.
Con Punishing
To some a cost of mistake can be slightly too much. Simply having a squad in open at wrong time can end up losing them all in few seconds burst of concealed machine-gun.
Con Steep learning curve
There being no tutorial makes for a steep learning curve, so one will need to spend a good bit of time with the game in order to learn all the mechanics on their own.
Con Combat feels a little static
Con Save anywhere does not save character placement
This means that there will be some retreading of areas once a save is loaded as the character will not be in the same place as where they were left off. This will waste time and can be frustrating having to do this every time you load the game.
Con Disappointing loot at later levels
Even when the player has reached a high level, they will often find loot meant for low level characters. This can be frustrating when trying to find better gear and just adds a lot of clutter to ones inventory as the majority of items found won't be that useful.
