Dungeon Siege

[JohnyX]

This is one that you have to try out. For some reason it is one of those games that you will either love or hate. It has taken me away from Diablo2 and I've never looked back. If I get some time that I am not playing it, I would write a more in depth review. For now it should suffice that 3 words can sum up the game...


Oh! Oh! Oh!:eek: <- my oh face :D

Ditto...

Have to agree...DS has gobble up better than a weeks worth of my time...would say I like the single player and the ability of have up to 8 "party" members...(including pack mules)...the coop game is equal as fun..however adding packmules to multi would be most welcomed....

I just tried this game over the weekend....and I like it a lot. Although it seems more like a Diablo clone, there are enough differences to give it it's own feeling. And the graphics are great for a RPG.

I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoyed the Diablo series.

Definatley worth its money...

Played the singleplayer campaign so far ... on medium diff it took 40 playtime hours....argh... :D :D

Nice gfx and effects... good UI altough switching between more than 2 spells in combat is a pain...

Darn you play fast Im over 40 hours of play time already and only in the swamps ;)

[Ragnarog]

OMG, the swamps? :)

Then I guess... lots hours in front of you :D :D

Ever thought of taking a DS week off? ;)

I heard a suggestion for handling the swamps that I'm going to try this time around. Set up your party to hold their ground when you come upon the witches. You know, the ones that summon creatures. Set your healers to heal and make sure they are well protected and then walk away. Your party will stand in place and fight the summoned creatures that attack them and level up. This will get you buffed fighters but some what weaker mages.

Is DS by mickysoft?

[Ragnarog]

Yep MBJ..but lemme say...as much as I hate their OS'es....

This game rocks and in over 40 hours or pure playtime (measured in the savefile and not counting a few..ehem..."rollbacks" cause of user dumbness) it hasnt even crashed once!

This is on a highly oc'ed system with an ATI Radeon 64 DDR... ;)

Thanks MBJ:)

[Ragnarog]

:confused:

There is no DS 2 yet, so...just..um...go for "Dungeon Siege" :)

Dont think you can screw that up :)

/2 minutes later

Oh..yeah, checked out ebuyer and altough they have a typo "Seige" in the title, it should be the right game :)
