They are still dripping in, those reviews of Dungeon Siege. There is one at Guru3D, without rating, but a very positive conclusion:
All in all Dungeon Siege is a beautiful piece of work. With stunning graphics and music, enriched character development, and some fast paced action. If you are looking for the above, than by all means this would be the cake for your birthday. If you are more of a hardcore RPG'er, you might want to bypass this game as you will find that the storyline lacks depth, as does the linear gameplay that you have to go through. Choices are not as freewill as most would like. Either way, you cannot go wrong with a free demo. The second review is at The Wargamer and it is a positive one, too - although the author notices a certain lack of depth:
It's not very deep, but it's a hell of a lot of fun. Don't come looking for a traditional role-playing stat-fest, but also don't be turned off by its deceptively thin veneer. In this case, it's not what's under the hood that counts, it's how it moves down the road. Dungeon Siege is like having the keys to a Mercedes. Sure, a semi-truck has more going on under the hood, but which one do you want to drive? |
