<A href="http://pc.gamedaily.com/">GameDaily</a> also <A href="http://pc.gamedaily.com/game/review/?gameid=5081">reamed</a> the <a href="http://www.dungeonsiege.com/">Dungeon Siege 2 expansion</a>. This is about all anyone needs to know from it:
<br>
<blockquote>Broken World is a disappointing expansion because it does make some very important improvements to DS2's gameplay, and doesn't tell a story that is good enough to play. All the elements that made the original title good are there, including exploding bodies and big colorful spells thrown around by large adventure parties. But Broken World seems hollow in comparison to the main game. By far, the people who would benefit the most would be those who are playing DS2 through for the first time. Also, those who don't really care about the story, or people who are mainly interested in new gameplay features for multiplayer, have much to gain with this expansion. Otherwise, this is a story that nobody would have missed if it had remained untold.</blockquote>

Man, that's tough. Story is really all this game has to offer.

In Dungeon Siege 2: Broken World, our forum goer Scero found an NPC that told him about the Dungeon Siege PSP game and offered him a code for it, as well as saying the PSP game had a code for items in the game he was playing. Way to help us suspend disbelief. Even worse, this "ad" was voiced by the character. Wanting to advertise in a game is fine, but I think this is kind of sick; characters in games should not try to talk to you about other games the developers want you to buy.

This is a joke right? It has to be.

Exploding bodies! Colorful spells! That is so original! I hope TES5 has those.
