About the Game

Dungeon Siege III is a role-playing game with action combat, set in the medieval fantasy world Ehb. It was under attack (and defeated) by the mysterious woman Jeyne Kassynder - and her new goal seems to be to destroy everything and everyone connected to the Montbarron family, the land's elite guards. players take the role of one of four persons (the fighter Lucas, the fire creature Anjali, the archer Katarina or the mage Reinhart) with a close connection with said family and the ultimate goal to save their lives, uncovering the truth behind Kassynder and her plot. The combat system has certain dissimilarities compared to the previous entries in the series; while those were made for mouse and keyboard controls, Dungeon Siege III is primarily designed for gamepads - which means direct controls instead of indirect clicking.

Story & Setting

Every killed enemy and solved quest gives experience points; a sufficient amount of those results in a level up. Like in other Obsidian games, players often has to make choices which have influence on how the quest is solved, e.g. with combat or peacefully, and how the quest ends. Consequences of those decisions reach through the whole game and even slightly change the main quest, for example if a faction supports the heroes in a big fight.

Gameplay & Core Systems

players directly controls the character movement and the direction of the attacks, and activates special attacks (which use focus energy) with a button. During the course of the game players meet the other three characters and takes one of them with him into combat. This fighting companion is controlled by the AI, but players choose the gear and makes the level up decisions - just like with the main character. The skills are divided into ten passive talents and nine active special attacks (abilities) which are different from character to character.

Standout Features

• Both can be improved in five steps, but the abilities also feature two different specializations, e.g. damage or speed.
• Dungeon Siege III also features many dialogues with smaller or bigger changes depending on the used character.
