Room for improvement
RaTcHeT302 | Nov. 17, 2011 | See all RaTcHeT302's reviews »I expected the game to be pretty mediocre but it managed to preserve a little bit the feeling of the first classic game, too bad that the controlls are uncomfortable and it feels really repetitive. There are issues with the camera and overall it doesn't feel as complex and complete as the first game was. The good thing about it is the CO-OP, Online and Offline and it is a game for almost everybody and pretty long too, the story isn't of quality tough and it makes the game not really worth to be bought for the price it has now.

Not bad, there are just better
Culthero | Sept. 9, 2011 | See all Culthero's reviews »As you have seen, Dungeon Siege III Never quite met the expectations set by 1 and 2. Though in all honesty Dungeon Siege isn't a bad game, it just suffers from a sometimes god awful UI and terrible multiplayer elements which fix your camera to a particular point. The controls as a whole aren't bad, the characters vary enough in playstyle to make it somewhat interesting but sadly customization is limited to what sort of weapons you use as far as elemental damage and how you specialize points. As I said at the start, it's not bad, just sadly there are better RPGs that you can play with others of that will even be more fulfilling on your own.

Too bad
Kane666 | Sept. 2, 2011 | See all Kane666's reviews »I was really looking forward to this game. I had enjoyed the other games but this one was a let down.
The whole thing really felt like a console game. Controls were horrible, very little customization. It did look nice but how far does that get you when you're playing with frustrating controls. I really didn't like the items either, I didn't feel it satisfied my looting expectations. I wasn't a big fan of the combat system either but that could be partly because of the horrid controls.
I would only buy this game if it were 75% off or more, even then it is debatable whether it is actually worth it.

Such a shame
Ascadia | Sept. 1, 2011 | See all Ascadia's reviews »Lets get one thing out of the way. Dungeon Siege 3 does not live up to the Legacy of 1 or 2.
The PC controls are terrible and you will need an xbox 360 pad to make it through this mess. The interesting level design has been replaced with a series of corridors, the loot system follows the Mass Effect 2 school of thought rather than the Diablo approach and over all everything feels shallow and unfulfilling.
If you are feeling the loot'em up ARPG itch... this game will not satisfy it.

Decent RPG game
chetancs | Aug. 13, 2011 | See all chetancs's reviews »Dungeon Siege III is decent RPG game developed by Obsidian Entertainment.The graphics is good.The character designed in the game is slightly disappointing but the spell effect in game look awesome. Story of the game is not that much entertaining. Sound effects and music in game are good. In game interface is clean and the menus for the equipping items are also perfect. Multiplayer mode in game is not good. The game has fast combats. And if you play the game with the game pad its more enjoyable.
