Dungeon Siege - Good game, or no?

The Cavalier · 11-11-2002, 12:24 AM

I was thinking about purchasing Dungeon Siege, but I'm not sure if I want it, and I can't find much for reviews and stuff on the net. Does it have a high level of customization, like baldurs gate? I mean, can I create a party of my own people, and the like? Do I get to choose a class and that kinda thing? Are the usual weapons (swords, shields, axes, bows, etc.) there? Any information would be helpful. . .

I thought it was way too linear and not nearly as challenging as the baldur's gate series. But the mods are good I hear

Or should I just go with Icewind dale or something like that? Iwant a game similar to Baldurs gate, but in 3d. or am I demanding too much?

I would suggest posting this on the General Conversation forum, because it really doesn't have anything to do with BG2, and this is, after all, the BG2 forum.

Yes, or even better at misc rpg forum.
There is no class in DS to choose at the beggining - you shape your char (and NPCs) through the game. Their stats snd weapon-magic skills raise with use.
I don't think you can create more then one char, but I've played only demo.
The equipment is standard RPG equipment.
