Dungeon Siege isn't meant to be the most complex and interactive RPG; this game was designed to be a fun hack-and-slash adventure. And, for the most part, it succeeds. The graphics, while generally nothing more than eye-candy, are quite impressive, and do help drag you into the game world. At times, I've noticed it's hard to see exactly where you should be going, but a little backtracking and careful inspection will send you back on your way. The game flows fairly well, but remember that your skills advance depending on what weapons/spells your characters use. If have a character use a mix of melee and archery, then don't expect that character to perform as well as a straight melee, or only archery one. I started playing on Hard, but later turned the difficulty down, as I repeatedly had to save and reload as enemies became significantly stronger. When facing waves of ranged enemies, be prepared to have a few characters knocked unconscious/die before all the enemies are dead. Little features, like pressing z to pick up all items near your units, really show that the creators of this game wanted you to enjoy it, and not be stuck in overly tedious moments. Overall, don't expect this game to be the second coming, but it can be a fun diversion while waiting for the next uber-game, or when you just want to sit back and kill hordes of enemies.Read full review
The gameplay is so powerful. Managing your view angle and your proximity regarding the scene, arranging your characters the way you want, hiring new characters during the game, giving them all the weapons and equipment you find, defining the way they have to act regarding the others and the ennemies... everything is easy to setup in a second. I spent hours with this game!!! I just regreat that Dungeon Siege II did not get all the features the first episode has.
I bought this for my boyfriend and he couldn't quit playing it. Just wish I could find the next game in the series that would load and play.

This is an old game, so it can’t be judged by today’s standards in terms of graphics, etc., but my son loves it!
