When the original Dungeon Siege came out over three years ago, it was solidly entertaining in the click-click-click, action-oriented vein of Diablo, to which it was constantly (and often unfavorably) compared. The loot was good and the action was intense, but many felt that the game sometimes played itself. Well, I can tell you that, after several days of playing through the game, much more has been addressed than mere party mechanics. While a couple new issues have cropped up, Dungeon Siege II puts its previous entry completely in shadow, in terms of gameplay depth, story depth, length, and addiction level.
