Review: A perfect 10
The game controls are smooth and responsive. The graphics are great with many outdoor and dungeon areas to explore. The characters grow in their ability to use weapons, armor and magic. The plot is absorbing with numerous side quests. I think Dungeon Siege is a lot of fun and certainly represents the next level of RPG games. A Real Winner!

Summary: Lots of combat, no story
Review: I blew threw this game in surprisingly little time. The end is totally anticlimactic. Te game is visually amazing and the interface is smooth, but it's not very challenging.

Summary: To much of a good thing
Review: I understand the developers desire to create an expansive world with lots of magic items to find but in the case of this game it became overkill for me. I seemed to spend half of my time just trying to figure out where I was and where I had already been since the overview map was useless for this task. Another quarter of my time was spent sifting through a hundred inventory items trying to figure out which ones my party members could use and which ones were better than each other. In the end pretty graphics couldn't overcome the dread I felt everytime I got lost or came into town with a filled inventory.

Summary: great start, wears out its welcome
Review: Many things in this game are done superbly, but I found that they packed in the monsters SO densely that the game got fairly boring fairly quickly - advance a little, kill another pack of monsters, rest, repeat. I'm only about 1/3 of the way through the game and pretty tired of it. If they tweaked that, this would be a classic.

Summary: Didnt know fun came in CD's :)
Review: You know, for a student at College...I've been twiddling my thumbs in such classes like C++ and other sorts just dyin to go home to play a phenomenon which has come to be known as 'Dungeon Siege'. Anyone else been playing this??? They damn Krugs (ogre like creatures) keep killing my whole damn party since my donkey loses control in single player but in multiplayer, my level 38 Ranger is a god ...of course the game has too much lag on 56K...so I host and wait for the next [person] to enter my game.Enough bout my personal experience...basically I think this game is absolutly superb. If you have a half decent graphics card (GeForce 2) then this game will utilise the GPU in a stunning way. You definetly notice the T&L (Textures And Lighting features in the Graphics card). The game doesn't have so much of a story but it does have absolutly stunning graphics. This is your simple hack and slash game similar to Diablo and Phantasy Stars Online. The game is slightly reptetitive but when playing online, it brings the gaming to a whole new level as it extends your gameplay. The game does keep you occupied for a long time and it's well worth the money I assure you :) Dammit, it's addictive...

Summary: Wonderful but too short!
Review: Dungeon Seige felt wonderfully fresh and fun from teh moment I started it. There was no strugle to get started, no frustration. The difficulty of the game scaled smoothly as you moved forward so you hardly noticed it. Instead it felt natural and easy. I am not a fan of games that equate frustration with fun and Dungeon Seige never once frustrated me. Strangely my only two complaints of the game were that a few of the dungeons themselves went on a TAD too long and the game itself didn't go on long enough! When it ended I honestly felt as if I should have only been half way through the game. Fortunately with the release of the editor there should be more adventures available for download.

Summary: Stunning Graphics
Review: I really like this game because it creates an immersive world to explore. All of the criticisms you have read in the earlier reviews are true. The story is thin and it is very simple to click and fight... click and fight... drink potion... click and fight. But, you may want to ask yourself what you want from a game. For me, it is the exploration and the world I see around me. The sound effects and the ability to tailor make your skills are also big bonuses. I had the feeling that I was taking part in an interactive "Lord of the Rings" type environment. No... the story isn't nearly as good, but the visuals are. If your goal is to be the 'baddest neighbor in the hood', then this isn't the product you want to spend your time with. If you want to explore, then this is an awesome game. It takes some time to fully appreciate all of the features. With the ability to zoom in, you can see the incredible detail to the images on the screen. It is a small item, but being able to count the arrows you shot into a monster is a first for me. Seeing the color of their eyes and the glint on their scales is the level of detail that exists here. I like it... not as much as Diablo II, but it is grand entertainment. I just finished Wizardry 8, and I like this one more.

Summary: This game islame
Review: This game only has its graphics going for it. Besides that the game is boring. There is not must to the characters and it is completely hack and slash. It reminds me of diablo, except I thought diablo is better than this game. Don't buy this game, wait for neverwinter nights.

Summary: They supplied the action, you supply the imagination
Review: Most folks bemoan the lack of plot in Dungeon Siege.."oh", they cry, "where's the story?". In the same breath, they praise the graphics, as if that would soften the blow of their harsh and sophisticated critque. Hogwash! The story is there, like any other story, most of it is filled in with the individuals experiences and ideas of fantasy. What makes Dungeon Siege truly fantastic is that it gives you all the tools and the settings to make up your own story. The visuals are amazing, but only on a top of the line system. I have played it on a Geforce4 and GeForce2, and it just isn't the same game on the 2. But when you do have a top of the line system, you are transported to a landscape of varied, innovative design that allows you to fully pretend to be anything you want to be. You want to be a swordsman of unparalled skill? With the plethora of swords, maces, axes and other melee weapons, you will *be* exactly what you think you are. How many times have you seen in rpg games "does +1 fire damage" and it was simply implied. Now, you get to see exactly what a flaming sword looks like, and how it kills uniquely. With the eyes engaged, the mind is free to add whatever story about that sword, or the way you use it, or the way you have used it. I have a bow, deadly as deadly can be, that shoots electric green bolts of energy, it's gotten me out of some pretty tight circumstances, I've taken the battles I've fought with that bow, and added it to the "inner-lore" we all have when we play an RPG game. Do I need a pre-defined backstory to make the bow more real, or useful? No, I use my imagination, and the exploits of my party and the "Real" story to make it vivid and compelling. Bottom line is that Dungeon Siege is the first game to actually visually transport you to this new and mysterious place where you can use the your mind to create your own role-playing and marvel at the world while doing it. Bring your bleeding-edge system and your openness to experience, you'll be glad you did.

Summary: great game, but once is enough
Review: I've always been a fan of RPG games and this looked pretty good. The graphics and scenery are spectacular! I played through with an archer and it was pretty easy. Unless you have a lot of patience, steer clear of wizards. They're not worth the trouble. I had a few minor glitches at first, mainly with the demand this game puts on your system. Ignore the minimum system requirements. You need a FAST system for this game to play properly and look like it's intended to. I have a 933mhz system with 384 mb of RAM and a 64mb DDR graphics card and when the fighting got really heavy things starting getting a little choppy, but I got through it just fine. I think they put those requirements on the box so anybody will buy this game. But unless you know what your system can and cannot do then you'll be disappointed if you're not up to the task to handle the strain. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it was (at least to me) a fairly easy game. You can play it again with a different difficulty setting and a different character or go online and join in, but nothing much will change. If you have a fairly decent system and want to enjoy some of the best scenery and graphics around, buy this game right now. If you're not sure if your system is powerful enough, check with someone who has knowledge of this before you buy.
