Tags: Dungeon Siege 2; Gas Powered GamesGamePlanet has posted a very positive review of Dungeon Siege 2, giving it 5 out of 5, because the graphics are so amazingly awesome and that's what RPGs are all about. That and collecting treasures and looking for "evildoers to kill".
Whilst all of these games [WoW, EQ2, GW] offer their own brand of unique storyline, challenges and heroes, none of them has been able to compare to the experience of Dungeon Siege.
...
The thing to note about character types in DS2 is that the developers have tried very hard to create character classes that match the hybrid mold as much as possible; casters that can fight and fighter classes that can drop their weapons and cast a firebolt if they have to. This is an element of RPG characterisation that is being explored in quite a few games on the market at present, and DS2 delivers it without a flaw.
...
Graphically, Dungeon Siege II is astounding. Right down to the intricate detail of the characters, armour and weapons, nothing was overlooked by Microsoft. The environments and sound effects are so awesomely put together that you find yourself completely and utterly immersed in the game. There really hasn't been a game of this calibre for PC in a long time.That's where I stopped reading, but I'm sure that there is plenty of even more stupid stuff where these paragraphs came from.
