[QUOTE="Doctor Futurity, post: 1672515, member: 10738"] I have to go with the "Dungeon Siege has no plot and is a waste of time," crowd: I got the Legends of Arana expansion (comes with the original, and is only $20, so it's a good deal). The game is so linear that it brings new meaning to the word. The plot is so thin that, as described earlier, it can be summed up as, "Those bastards killed my Cow.....and now they're going to pay." The amount of time spent slaying (not playing, just slaying) between plot advancements is so long that, if you aren't at it constantly (say, playing for a couple hours once per week vs. playing round the clock with 5 minute bathroom breaks), you will eventually forget why you started killing the baddies in the first place. After about 15 hours and no discernable change in play or focus, I realized I could have read three awesome fantasy novels in that time and sold my copy on Ebay for the same price I bought it. Like breaking off from a bad date, I felt instant relief. [/QUOTE]
