<blockquote>Jonric: What are the main strengths you sought to retain and build on from the first game, and what aspects have you improved, added or changed?
<br>

<br>
Kevin Lambert: One of the biggest strengths of the combat system in the original Dungeon Siege is its accessibility. The controls are so simple that anyone can pick it up and play.</blockquote>

wow. This Lambert guy is pretty much a douche. He seriously needs to get off the "Combat is teh cool!!11!!" kick

 

[Transcendent One]

Of course accessibility is a good thing, but perhaps accessibility can sometimes be too good for it's own good... uhh... *head explodes*

 

[dagamer667]

It's so accessible, it plays itself!

I happen to be a blind deaf negro jewish parapalegic former football star muslim with cleft lips so I happen to find this post quite offensive!

The controls are so simple that anyone can pick it up and play.
Yes, but everyone is in constant danger of vomiting.
