Fun, great looking RPG
User Rating: 8.8 | Dungeon Siege PC
I was so pumped a few years ago when I heard about Dungeon Siege. I don't know why, but I just saw the screens and thought "Wow! I need to have this game when it comes out!" To this day, it's the only game besides Half-Life 2 that I've bought without knowing how it would be first. I wasn't dissapointed. The graphics were gorgeous for their day, and the game was long, even if the story was a little weak. Having auto-attacks in an RPG was a first, and so was the Packmule concept. I also really enjoyed the "Goblin Inventors" part of the game, the machines they had were a lot of fun.
I only have a couple problems with the game. It was very linear, and you couldn't really say no to a quest, or yes to any side-quests. Although I liked not having to click my hand off, I would have liked a little more in-depth system for combat. I didn't really like not being able to get spell or ranged ability while using melee weapons, or not gaining attributes to my discretion, but it made for smooth gameplay, at least. A little more freedom would have been nice, and added the replay-factor for me, but overall, a great game if you like Diablo or other such action-RPG's.
