Awesome fun when you are tired of MMO's or regular FPS

I started playing DS when it was first beta tested way back when and Microsoft knew what it was doing in the gaming world-it was fun and new. Since that time Microsoft has fallen to the wayside of the gaming industry; other than HALO, and this poor title has been set out to pasture to die with all the other good games that could have been great. I pull this game out whenever I am burnt-out on fast paced FPS or MMO's that are way to complicated to enjoy sometimes. This game has timeless storyline and fun and amazingly still runs on my computer with MS Vista.

I got the game from J&R Music and Computer World through amazon. The game arrived late and in a flimsy padded envelope, smashed up and crushed. The game CDs survived intact but have red ink from the retail game box stuck to the data side of the disks. I'm going to have to try to clean them up before i install it as I expect the terrible condition of the package is going to make a return difficult if not impossible. The one nice thing is that the broken world expansion pack is included in the deluxe edition. My advice: buy from amazon, not J&R Music.
Love it!

Without the ever sometimes mind boggling what will dex, str, energy, etc. do. Fun starter RPG for the masses that could lead to the more demanding and challenging worlds of NWN, etc.

My son and husband are the warriors in the family, and they say, "Game play is a combination of Neverwinter Nights meets Diablo II. It's fast-paced and versatile." As far as I (the purchaser) am concerned, well, I would say they have gotten their money's worth! I would dare say they come really close to playing it ALL THE TIME! So, good product! And "please make another!" NOTE: Husband's 68 year old mom is now the official Guru of Dungeon Seige - everyone calls her for play advice.
Grandma loves it!

It is the same premise as Diablo II and can be played by someone who only has the ability to use one hand. My 63 year old grandmother was having a blast with it!

Well I do not know how this game plays because it crashes sometimes in the game menu or about 5 minutes into the game. There are no patch fixes out that I can find for this.

The game was just what I was looking for. Along with the regular game the deluxe edition comes with the extension to the game. Well done and the graphics are very good.
A Great, So-So Game.

This game is a great step up from the first Dungeon Siege. The graphics are decent, the leveling up is often enough and the character creation is good enough. However, the game itself is very monotonous. Every quest requires you to fight through several swarms of baddies. I find it boring to sit there while your party wails on your foes for a good three minutes, and that is if they are at equal or lesser level that you are. The only driving urge to play is to progress the storyline, but it isn't fun. The story is good, but not really worth the effort of running around to battle re spawning creatures. I have yet to get to the expansion "Broken World" and I am not sure I ever will.
