Preview IGN looks at Dungeon Siege 3: Broken Code

*shrug* I haven't followed the development at all, and you can't tell me that it's not a dumb enough subtitle to possibly be real.

Obsidian is saying there'll be no loading times as you transition between environments, letting you move from verdant forests to dark dungeons to dusty crypts.

First allegedly fixing Fallout 3's camera, now getting rid of long loading times. They're really growing up, aren't they?

If a character happens to lose all health, they can be revived in a flash if a teammate moves next to their body.

Expletive.

Wow. So they are using the same groundbreaking technology as the first Dungeon Siege? I guess it's good that they're keeping it in tune with the rest of the series?

Unfortunately game developers as a whole have lost track of the fact that games just aren't very rewarding if there's no challenge.

Nope, their target audience is just easily "frustrated". And we don't want to "frustrate" the target audience now, do we?

When even on the Codex people argue that if they'd let you jump down anywhere in Alpha Protocol without visual helpers telling you where to do it - it would be too frustrating - you stop asking questions about challenge.

Codex became ridden with consoletards. News at 11.

A typical Codexer at play.

only good thing about this game series is Lazarus.
