A site called 'InTheMix' with a byline of 'Inside Dance Music' has tackled a review of Mad Doc's Legends of Aranna expansion for Dungeon Siege. There's no final score but Gameplay was rated at 2.5/5:However, after playing both the original and expansion pack, I noticed that I was hardly playing the game, but rather just sitting there and watching as my men and ladies ran about killing things rather intelligently in the general area of where I clicked my mouse. It kind of felt like I was playing a version of the Sims, but with Swords and magic. On the one hand this is a good thing, as it means there is no scouring the screen to find members of your team who may have got stuck trying to navigate their way through the maps, only to find them standing still whilst being attacked. But on the other hand, it kind of feels mindless. The story, or lack thereof, also adds to the mindless feel, as you never really become engaged in neither the original story, nor the new one. |
