![]() There are so many different and truly beautiful locations to enjoy. There is a really great mix of travelling out in the open world, and exploring dungeons. It’s all pretty dark but there’s a wonderful mix of beautiful light and lightened area’s in the cities as well. I didn’t realize how dark the world was until I was going through my screenshots looking for a reminder of some of the things I’d done in the game. I think Diablo 3 is gorgeous but Dungeon Siege 3 is even better looking in my opinion which is even more impressive since it’s an older game. Not that ARPG’s look bad or anything, but this is definitely the most visually detailed one I’ve played. As an artist I can see the intricate details that went into the design of the buildings, characters, even the armor, and it really impresses me. It’s still very beautiful though and extremely detailed. The other tree enhances your characteristics with improved defense, magic power, crit chance, or how much gold you get from drops stuff like that. One tree enhances your abilities with increased damage, bonus effects like damage over time, or longer durations of spell effects and such. Eventually you’ll basically fill out every single talent by the end of the game. While you level up you can customize your abilities in the talent trees. I really like the way it works, it’s a nice fluid mix of combat. You can burn up your mana by casting your most powerful spell repeatedly if it doesn’t have a cooldown (and chain different spells of course), but you won’t be able to spam spells without having to switch to basic attacks to get enough mana back to keep it up. You can use magic as much as you want but you do need to use your basic attack just as often. You gain mana just by using your basic attack on enemies, so you’re never really limited to one type of attack. I want to tell you how mana works because I think it’s pretty cool and is the reason that it’s necessary to switch between your combat styles. While you only have a few special attacks per combat form, it really adds a nice variety of moves to play with. Each form of combat has three different special offensive abilities on top of your basic attack, and three defensive abilities. Reinhart switches between using magic from a distance and meleeing his enemies. The really cool thing about the combat in the game is that you can switch between two types of playstyle on demand which is actually necessary but doesn’t feel forced either. I played as the monk/wizard guy – Reinhart. The controls are a bit funky to get used to at first but once you do they work great. I haven’t so I don’t know what the controls are like on that.) Better still is the fact that you can remap the keys! If you prefer the point-and-click action you can still do that also. The gameplay is very similar to Diablo style games but offers you control with the W, A, S, and D keys. ![]()
