Also the Adrenaline Vault did a review of Chris Taylor's Dungeon Siege. Like our own Review, this is one of the few reviews to not only praise the game due to its outstanding graphics, but also critizises its poor gameplay:Dungeon Siege is such a pure, concentrated hack and slash title that it overlooks most other features that make great games. It's positively gorgeous, but playing through the majority of the title feels more like a chore than it does like fun. Omissions like the lack of town teleports, a poor online multiplayer interface, and the extraordinarily monotonous gameplay all conspire to erase nearly all the potential Dungeon Siege had to be a stellar, innovative title. It makes no apologies for being the way that it is, and while its simplistic style of play may appeal to a small group of hardcore Diablo fans, most players will find themselves searching for a good reason to keep playing after about 20 hours. As it stands, Dungeon Siege is a mediocre romp through varied environments that brings very little new to the table.
The game has received a final score of 3/5 stars. |
