Default !!! Dungeon Siege 2 Full and Demo on a Pentium III 450 mhz and a Geforce FX 5200 !!!

Hello peeps.

Yes it's me again Skybuck your game reporter.

I'll keep it short and brief. First of all dungeon siege 2 demo (1.5
gigabyte) runs perfectly on a Pentium III 450 mhz and a geforce fx 5200.

However that's not quite true, the only problem is with the video playback.
The sound stutters.

The rest of the gameplay is good with a slowdown here and there but nothing
too serious.

However I must mention I have a very optimized system, only 12 windows xp
processess and priority set to high and firewall down and internet
disconnect to save extra cpu juicy from having to process arp packets...

But even with the normal stuff on it would run well I think.

Anyway enough about system ****. I'll just keep it short:

Shame on you if you didn't play Dungeon Siege 1.

Dungeon Siege 2 is just as relaxed as Dungeon Siege 1.

However Dungeon Siege 2 is literally a little bit more dark and the story is
a little bit more interesting.

More quests and more different sub quests going on at the same time...

Gaining experience has changed a little... I think this is the biggest
difference and most fun part about dungeon siege.

Gaining experience gives "points" Which can be assigned to a sort of
"technology tree".

Yes you read it right... Dungeon Siege 2 now has a sort of technology tree
like civilization 3

I think it's quite cool and interesting.

However you can follow different paths a little bit and magic is in 4
categories like combat magic, natural magic, melee attack and range attack.

You also have these rond stones for different skill levels which gives you a
temporarely super power etc...

Pretty cool stuff... I had to use those mostly at the start.

Hmmm let's see. The animations/videos looked pretty cool... there were a few
parts were I was really amazed, there were also a few parts with could be
done better, but all in all nicely done

I was kinda suprised how much gameplay the demo contained.

It contains like 100 times more gameplay then the dungeon siege 1 demo.

I kinda had the feeling I was like playing the whole game.

Right now I have completed the demo (I was getting a bit tired of it after
two days but still interesting to see where it would take me ) and I am
downloading the full game :P* haha :P

Too all doubters, bitches, assholes and dickless people:

THIS GAME IS A MUST PLAY.

This game is truely a must play, these people have spent so much time at
creating beautifull, interesting, intrueing levels, weapons, characters,
story, enemies, houses, places, buildings, shrines, dungeons, etc...

YOU SIMPLY HAVE TO PLAY IT ! YOU OWE IT TO THEM =D

Trust me, you won't be disappointed if you play Dungeon Siege 2....
especially if you have never played a roll playing game. If you played
dungeon siege 1 you simply gonna love dungeon siege 2 as well.

The best is probably still to come.

So far the demo contained forest, forest, forest, jungle, forest, forest,
hill, mountains, forest, junle, forest, hills, mountain,bridges, and a sort
of dungeon the shrine etc.

I really really really hope that dungeon siege 2 will have more diverse
lands like dungeon siege 1 had...

Like desert, ice, swamps, caves, dungeons, castle, etc, etc, etc
otherwise I think I am gonna be a little bit mad at the developers unless
it has really other good stuff.

However the first dungeon siege 1 demo also only had 1 type of land so ds2
will probably have lot's of diversity in land stuff

However I did enjoy the ds2 demo =D

Anyway. The ds2 demo did not have any multiplayer. It did have a multiplayer
button, but it didn't work lol.

Oh well I guess it was just there too let you know it has multiplayer
support, but it would have been nice if it said: "multiplayer only in full
version" ok just a little nitty picking

The main menu is very cool. It has this hellish look with your character to
the side so you can admire yourself lol... ****ing great =D

Anyway. I really look forward to DS2 single player and multiplayer.

I really wonder if multiplayer has changed a little.

Time will till... expect a full report in a couple of days

I think a few things would be cool:

1. First I would like to have my single player character be transported to
the multiplayer stuff that would be cool.

2. It would also be cool if my single player characters could also be
transported to the multiplayer stuff so that I can move with a group through
the multiplayer stuff... and maybe even fight group against group just for
the fun of it... just once or so... since ds1 deathmatch was stupid/boring..
however sometimes it was funny to see people loose all there stuff and
pretty much run in the underwear lol, though that s nasty losing your stuff
!
be carefull.. fortunatelly ofcourse most servers dont allow losing your
stuff to others few

3. It would also be cool if dungeon siege 2 has a better protection
system... since in DS1 it was easy to cheat and upgrade your character with
a special tool... oh well... Also copieing rare items was possible.

4. The biggest and coolest thing would be a persistent universe where at
least your multiplayer character remains as strong as it is/was,... hmmm
wait a second... wasn't that in dungeon siege 1 was well...

Hmmm maybe I am bit a confused... or did ds1 have a single player and
multiplayer character per user/player ? hmmm cant remember.. oh well.

5. I just love trying to find secrets. I hope dungeon siege 2 contains lot's
of secret hard to reach areas and stuff like.

6. Also some riddles would be cool but also a bit frustrating because it
makes you feel dumb when you can't solve it lol... too much brain power
required lol though still it's cool to search on forums for the
solution... but then it's no longer a riddle ofcourse... too easy to find it
on forum oh well.

7. DS1 also had these cool things that could happen that was seen throughout
the whole world... when you placed all the stones the sky turned redish...
awesome. I hope DS2 has something like it at least... that would be cool.

8. And last but definetly not least I hope DS2 has many cool looking areas
and beautifull looking areas and ofcourse lot's of treasure, treasure and
treasure and even more treasure... many treasure rooms full of gold, silver
coins, amulets, swords, magic spells, books, staffs, axes, hammers,
crossbows, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc,.
Ohhhhh yeaaahhhhh. And ofcourse LOTS of DEMONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lot's and lot's and lot's of demons that must BE SLAUGHTERED before reaching
the TREASURY, woeeeeeeeeehoeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

9. I also have a little secret wish to find more pussy online lol.
hahahahaha. More beautifull chicks could be cool

Yeah so far dungeon siege 2 demo was pretty ****ing dark... I do hope it has
some beautifull bright levels

Desert, or water or beach. I loved the pyramids and stuff like that...
grrrreeeaaat stuff. and so ****ing relaxing to follow somebody through the
desired searching for the lost pyramids lovely... and ofcourse the demons
straight out of hell/doom... I luvvved it and still do I hope dungeon
siege 2 stays true to it's original in some ways however I am also open for
new stuff yessssssss.

And the best part of all is I and thousands of other people are about to
find out how good this game really is ==DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
wieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Bye,
Skybuck.
