    Dungeon Siege Opinions

    So what does everyone think of the game so far. I personally love it, but hate it too. The Graphics and sounds are great. The Character ablity system is cool too. Im not too sure about the whole story, but thats ok. It takes a long time to get to a new town. Some of the things arent explained too well. There are too many battles of "a ton of weak monsters" I personally would like to see battles of "a few very powerful monsters" I do like the game, but I wont play it after something better comes along.

    I really like this game, it's just plain fun. But the biggest problem I have is that the game gave me 20FPS average when I had a Radeon and I got a new Geforce 3 and it gives me 25FPS now. That just sucks, I mean all my other games gave me a huge performance increase but not Dungeon Siege!

    Umm I don't get it.. I can play it fine with a GF2 GTS, notice *no* frame loss and you're complaining?

    Also one thing I really don't like is how you can't manouver with the directional keys, but you have to click on the screen and it auto pathfinds.

    Other than that, its great.. give me a bit, I'll post some screenshots with the GF2.

    Forgot to mention I like the option of single player.

    I like it if I could ever get out of this friggin Dungeon{Second one}!!! Gameplay is fun but it at times is a very difficult game. Way better than Diablo or Baldurs gate. I would add it to the Classics list myself!!!

    I get a little over 25 zoomed in this far at Max Settings, show FPS on yours, and see what you get.

    Thanks to someone prodding me with a sharp stick today I downloaded the demo.

    My GF3 runs everything at max and I haven't noticed any stuttering at all even with big battles and 2 characters fighting along side of mine.

    BUT Im not so thrilled by the game so far...it seems like a Darkstone with better graphics in the way it plays and the story unfolds.

    I am going to buy this game...but I think I'll wait for it to drop in price first.

    I just tried it out quick, and was bored within a matter of a few minutes. Maybe I've just played too much Diablo 2, but this game's just not my style. Ahh well, I suppose I should get to finishing JK2
    bbq?
