This is an action cRPG that came out after DIABLO II and just before NEVERWINTER NIGHTS. And it blew both of them out of the water!

Not as deep as NWN, yet the story engaged you enough to make it more than a hack'n'slash. Not as dark as DIABLO II, yet blood fever will take hold of you once in battle. A number of innovative ideas made DUNGEON SIEGE a unique experience: the cinematic perspective, the original characters (who thought up...machine-gun shooting medieval robots!), the fighting-back pack-mule...
At the same time, both the enemies' and your company members' AI is well above par.

Graphically, this is a 4 year game yet it plays much smoother and it has further horizons than most cRPGs today. Even if, to any true cRPG fun, graphics is not everything (otherwise DAWN OF MAGIC would have been considered a great game), DUNGEON SIEGE is found wanting in nothing when it comes to graphics. Not until TITAN QUEST got released could any cRPG hold a candle to DUNGEON SIEGE! Tress and grass move as you pass by, water ripples as you step into it and wakes as you walk through it. Everything worn or wielded appears on the character; whereas, magic spells are not shabby at all.

The game also sports a GREAT CAMERA PLACEMENT (zoom capable and totally customizable) and has one of the BEST SOUNDTRACKS - the theme music will stay with you as the appropriate theme for any epic battles in the future.

Those of you who were (rightfully) disappointed with the truly bad and much shorter DUNGEON SIEGE 2 (I still cannot fathom how they managed to botch that one!), keep in mind that it has only skin-deep similarities to its predecessor. This is the one to buy!

At this price, it is a great deal too - and you will enjoy it more than most latest games!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

This is a good, fun game that does not hog system resources. While it is a couple of years old at this point,it has held up fairly well due to the quality of the story line. Probably not equal to the Diablo series, but definitely a good RPG. Fewer and fewer games of this quality are being brought to market, cherish those that are released.

Very addicting game when I'm not playing I'm thinking of my next quests. Loved it so much I got the whole series, Dungeon Siege II and also the add-on to Dungeon Siege I

This is an adventure game. The beginning of the game is very sad where your hero's friend dies. But it is a very good game to play. This game does have blood and gore but it doesn't look like real blood like Doom 3 on X-box. But It's a very good.
