While Dungeon Siege 3 doesn't exactly march in to fill an empty rank in the adventure games lineup, it's difficult to not be impressed by the careful design that makes a combined drop-in online and couch co-op adventure game work so smoothly.Dungeon Siege 3 takes place in the former kingdom of Ehb, after the last king died in circumstances that left the 10th Legion under siege and without allies. And where is your friend now that you lay coughing in your own blood, after that unfortunate run-in with the Azure Dragon-kin? Off somewhere in the dungeon dimensions, making off with your loot, unique items and spell-books most likely.But not this time. Mismatched levels between players, and endless waits and equipment screen moments.
But the quality of the writing when it comes to the overall setting, as well as how the dialogue changes subtly in order to wrap the choices you make (or to mesh with the order of your dialogue picks), makes sure that the decisions feel important and a part of the story.When the quests also happen to be connected to each other through the story's running themes of vengeance and reconciliation, it's very easy to start thinking that these choices will come back to you again later. But in what fashion, and whether it will be different from the fallen Legion - this is what you will decide throughout the game.Do you treat your enemies with respect even in defeat, or do you punish their transgressions in cold righteousness and swift vengeance? Will you choose what is convenient for your goals, or will you favour principle and idealism? Will you forgive and look forward, or will you have your and the Legion's revenge?Of course, it is a more or less linear path you follow in the game from start to finish. And you play one of the four heroes that will help the Legion rise to power once more. 30 years later, the remnants of the 10th Legion gather again.
Fully accompanied by an expertly made musical score (from the composer who made the music for Dead Space), and a well-directed narration.Better yet, the relatively trivial ambiguity of the choices for the most part, and how the other players in the game can suggest dialogue choices (and get bonuses and trophies for agreeing as well as disagreeing with the host's pick) - and how the narrative eventually culminates in one or two substantial choices, this makes this game capture the pen and paper role-playing moments as well as any online role-playing game I've played.Which is ironic, because the game plays like an action-adventure with some role-playing elements in it. But what you do will be placed in the game and wrapped in what will seem like an unbroken script - that tells the story of the 10th Legion's rise. No matter what you do, the story will play out in largely the same way, and the acts will last about as long every time (give and take a few hour-long sidequests). At other times, it's only your reputation as a Legionnaire that is at stake.So there are no “wrong” choices to make in terms of being able to play the game from start to finish, as you walk through the shortest routes in the various and uniquely drawn 3d areas. Or else they cause references and small changes in encounters later on.
It is fun, it's interesting - and I'm buggered about it because it's so easy to have the deep group-dynamics that took weeks of perfection to accomplish - in other, more cumbersomely designed role-playing games.Essentially, what Obsidian has made here is a way to piggyback on the host's game. Combos which will be easier and easier to accomplish as the game progresses.That the animation and fighting stances are easy to to look at, as well as entertaining to play with helps as well. On top of this, there are many buffs that could help maximize another character's ability attacks. The encounters at times will be all but impossible to beat unless you understand the need to have one of your companions block attacks while the other moves in for the kill.Since all of the characters also have two stances that tend to be either wide-area or focused attacks, as well as abilities that play into the specialisations, the game tends to encourage a much deeper cooperation and strategy than in most games like this (which is typically: choosing which back should have two axes instead of just the one).It's easy to end up in a situation where you save the group by a strategic area-attack with a status effect, or perhaps a well-placed staggering ability-attack, for example. And there is quite a lot of strategy and depth involved when moving around in the fights, and in how you support your companions. Still, you choose a preferred style for your characters.
Dungeon Siege 3 Review Offline And Online
In other words, the game is structured in such a way that playing this game online with strangers (or even vicious little brothers) actually works. Which is of course a good thing, since the encounters and the boss-fights scale depending on how many players are in the game, and what the level of the host's character is. Meaning that gathering loot and finding better equipment benefits the group, rather than being a recipe for ruining friendships.In a similar way the group always plays on the same screen-area (the view zooming out slightly when surrounding a boss, for example), and can't run off on their own. And that the loot is character specific, rather than universal. Offline and online, it magically works in the same way.Other neat design choices include the fact that the AI takes over if you are in the equipment screen, or in the text-chat. How this works is that at any time during a game, you can add another player - and then they follow the host around for as long as they like.
Of the kind that a game-master would sit on for years, and perfect and change subtly to suit the players. The problem with this game is that it achieves the friendly adventuring setting from a successful role-playing session - with the wrong mechanics.I mean, what it is, is a really really good scenario and a good story. And I write about that in the blog-post ( which you can reach by appropriate use of hardcore arcane magic, which keeps the casuals away). Jason! :p"it was good to hear how that can be enjoyable if you look at it in the right way."Right. But the direct links in the review is bounced somehow by the site.
