Dungeon Siege II

Hey I was just wondering what your thoughts on DS 2 were. I've just had a look at what they've got for it on the official site and on IGN.com and I have to say it looks fooking great.

Indeed it is looking pretty good. We're planning on covering that game here (amongst others) as much as possible. We're in negotiations to get the source code downloadable on this site as soon as possible...

(Kidding, just kidding)

Actually, in the future we "hope" to be able to branch off from the Lancers series and cover other games. This particular one certainly is on the top of our wish list.

The graphics look good, however I hope that they come up with a more detailed plot. The plot of the first game was rather dusty .

Methinks you're being a bit generous there, Esq. Still, DS was a fun action RPG in it own way. Some fine mods too; Lands of Hyperborea by "Xaa" comes to mind.

Edit: Another good mod (if a bit on the short side) was Copperhead: Retaliation by Derek Warner

* Scratches head *

There were MODS for Dungeon Siege ?. It got boring so I unistalled it a while back ...

I didnt like the first one, well I liked it but really got boring extremely quickly. Diablo is a much better kill-fest I believe. At least in diablo the killing was nicely coated in gratuitious blood. Here you hit a guy in the eyes with a mace and like 2 little drops of it fall on the floor. I dont like Ultra-gore, but when im killing massively, it doesnt feel like it unless theres body parts flying off and blood everywhere. Besides nothing makes a massacre look like a massacre than 200 gallons of blood all over the floor.

Code - You're probably right about the plot . The "Elemental" mod for DS is supposed to be good as well. It is 400+MB, and is still in the beta (possibly alpha) stage. It might be worth trying (eventually).

And so it has begun, I see. I see myself ending up in a little OT backwater, clinging to FL and its mods. Wondering what happended to everyone else.

Since we now have a forum for it, time to move this to its new home.
