[edit] Plot
DS:ToA picks up where Dungeon Siege II (PC) left off; after the 2nd cataclysm altered the world of Aranna. The game stays true to the DS2 storyline and gameplay, with plenty of hack-n-slash dungeon crawling and a huge variety of weapons, armor, and items to obtain.
[edit] Gameplay
Instead using the mouse like in original Dungeon Siege games, the player direct controls the character with analog stick (very similar of Champions series). Player can also choose a partner to engage fighting making a party of maximum 2 characters but the partner can be changed (ranger, magic, melee). In online play, the second character can be another player on the Internet.
Throne of Agony looks and feels like a Dungeon Siege 2 expansion: interface, music, character designs and movements, regions and dungeons - it's all very similar with the PC version. The quest system is the same; weapons, armor, gear and consumables too. The unique and exclusive feature is the navigation in a global map to enter in stages and dungeons.
[edit] Features
- 3 unique characters to choose from – Characters can be customized as they level up into 6 different Hero Classes and then even further into 12 Legendary Classes.
- Player can choose from over 10 different Pets and Companions to play with. Gameplay will encourage the player to constantly switch between unique Pets and Companions to use their special powers.
