Dungeon Siege II (2005)

Dungeon Siege II throws you back into the magical world of Ehb, a generation after your hero vanquished the previous evil. However, a new threat has awakened, steeped in an ancient legacy and rapidly growing in power. Drawing upon the cataclysmic events of a millennium ago on the Plain of Tears, where the god Zaramoth was defeated and magic unleashed, a new heir seeks to claim dominion, consuming all who stand in his path. As the Second Age of Man hangs in the balance, you must once again take up arms, wielding sword and spell to confront this growing abomination and determine the fate of the world. Dungeon Siege II rightfully earns its place amongst the best games by Gas Powered Games due to its refined and engaging RPG mechanics. Building upon the foundation of the original, it offers a more compelling story, deeper character customization, and enhanced party management. The seamless world exploration, where the camera smoothly follows your party across vast landscapes, remains a defining characteristic, and the improved spell system and diverse skill trees allow for a greater variety of character builds. Coupled with cooperative multiplayer, Dungeon Siege II delivers a satisfying and immersive action RPG experience that cemented Gas Powered Games' reputation for creating quality games in the genre.
