Tags: Dungeon Siege 2; Gas Powered GamesThe official Dungeon Siege II website has got another <a href=http://www.gaspowered.com/ds2/dev_diaries.php?goidx=false&image=9&idxnum=2>dev diary[/url] by designer Daniel Achterman. He discusses what fans have been asking for in DS2 and how they're making vague attempts at giving it to them.
Before we get started, I'd like to confess a guilty pleasure. I like to browse the Dungeon Siege II fan forums. I'm a dedicated lurker at such sites as SiegeWorks.org and PlanetDungeonSiege.com. I especially like to read posts about what people would like DS2 to do differently from DS1, and what new features our fans would most like to see. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that many of the things fans want are already in the new game! The bad news is, you won't be able to fly or ride horses. Sorry, guys.
One of the most common requests is for fights to be more involving and interactive. Players want to be drawn in to the action of combat, directing characters to unleash devastation with clever tactics.
If that's what DS players want, I'd buy ToEE. But then I'm all biased!, so ignore me.
