<a href="http://www.rpgdot.com">RPGDot</a> have a preview of Gas Powered Games' action RPG title Dungeon Siege 2: Game Plays You up written by, strangely enough, Rhianna Pratchett, that person who wrote the novella included in one or another release of <b>Beyond Divinity</b>. Go figure.
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>The skill system has also been fleshed out and although the same main character classes are in place: Fighter, Ranger, Combat Mage and Nature Mage they have been given Diablo-style skill trees that allow more diversity in the levelling process.
<br>
<br>
Another expanded feature also akin to Blizzard’s famous hack’n’slash and good news for the hoarders amongst you, is a greater variety of weapons, items and general loot. You will also be able to find magical reagents within the game that can be used to create enchanted items.
<br>
<br>
Although the six-party system is still in place, and yes you still have those cute but often annoying pack mules, you will get the opportunity to add more interesting creatures to your party, namely ‘pets’. These beings, such as fire elementals, work rather like Mags in Phantasy Star Online; they can be levelled up in different ways by feeding them different items. Melee items will make them stronger, magical items with increase their magic, you get the idea.</blockquote>

<br>
Well that all sounds real neat, but it also sounds like a heap of stuff other games have done before and done better.
