July 6, 200718 yr Would it be rude of me to troll this thread repeatedly with comments of how much I hate Dungeon Siege and have no pleasant expectations for this one? "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
July 6, 200718 yr So instead of slaying Orcs I can now slay cybernetic Space-Orcs? The game industry is full of innovations! Rain makes everything better.

Nah, but you can save your energy and leave it to Volo. Or Hades, I forget which one hates this crap. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
July 6, 200718 yr Wait Dungeon Siege was critically acclaimed? Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
July 6, 200718 yr Both Dungeon Siege and Dungeon Siege 2 were poor games, however I always give game companies three tries. I will have see how it looks, till then I'll keep an open mind.

July 6, 200718 yr Haha, is Chris Taylor taking a jab at his own games by acknowledging their lack of atmosphere? EDIT: Time to murder Tale. Edited July 6, 200718 yr by Llyranor (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)

July 6, 200718 yr Well, a big flaw of Dungeon Siege was its absolutely boring setting and story. It was about as generic as you can get. This setting actually sounds a bit more innovative, so I'm not completely dismissive about it.
July 6, 200718 yr "Chris Taylor and his talented team at Gas Powered Games are recognized as leading innovators in the industry" And me and my team of trained sheep are recognized as leading spiritual mediums of the new century, ffs. Cybernetics do sound nifty, but I GPG forget everything that made Dungeon Siege...well, Dungeon Siege and instead concentrate on salvaging the good parts of Dungeon Siege 2. There were quite a few, fortunately. Biggest plus was most likely that DS 2 wasn't completely bland. They should build Space Siege(plz nu title!1) on that notion. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
July 7, 200718 yr Well, I have been hoping for a PC port of Mass Effect. Instead, we get this.... Well, maybe it won't be so bad. "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
July 7, 200718 yr How the hell do you siege space anyway? There's quite a lot of it. Edited July 7, 200718 yr by Nick_i_am (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
July 7, 200718 yr Are there already any screenshots/artworks available? Since it's scheduled for a Q1 2008 release, I already expect some material to show off Rain makes everything better.
July 7, 200718 yr Well, I have been hoping for a PC port of Mass Effect. Instead, we get this.... Well, maybe it won't be so bad. A PC version will be released, my best best is 6-8 months after the Xbox360 release.

July 7, 200718 yr After all, that's all it took for JE to get ported. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
July 8, 200718 yr The best thing about DS franchise is that it gave engine for Ultima: Lazarus Still... shooting would make combat less boring, just make it like Syndicate/Cannon Fodder, or even better make WASD movements separate from mouse aiming That would be one cool game
July 11, 200718 yr Let's just say that the developers of the Dungeon Siege games doesn't instill any greater hopes in me for the chance of a good game. Maybe this time they'll achieve what they set out to do with the Dungeon Siege franchise, a game that is played by the computer with minimal human interaction.
July 12, 200718 yr http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/803/803659p1.html Screenshots...it looks like Dungeon Siege in space. Was DS2 an improvement over DS1? Eh, my eternal optimism is taking a bit of a blow.

July 12, 200718 yr Looks more like Mass Effect meets Dungeon Siege to me. Even the main guy on the screenshots looks like Shepard. Good o'l Chris Taylor surely knows where to get his..."inspirations". Edited July 12, 200718 yr by Morgoth Rain makes everything better.
