GameInformer has whipped up some thoughts on Dungeon Siege II after some hands-on play:When the original Dungeon Siege was released back in March of 2002, it was snatched up by hack n’ slash RPG junkies thanks to its slick user interface, adept combat system, and intricate storyline. Following in the footsteps of games like Diablo, the game struck a chord with PC gamers looking for an engrossing adventure that provided tons of gameplay. And now, three years later, Microsoft and Gas Powered Games are teaming up once again for Dungeon Siege II. But, as the old adage goes, things do indeed get better with age. Upgrades are the order of the day and Dungeon Siege II packs them in like it’s going out of style, whether it’s the newly enhanced combat or the all new character creation feature. If you’re a PC gamer hankering for an adventure, lace up those boots and sharpen your swords; you’re about to get one heck of a lesson on how to do things right. |
