Dungeon siege III Rant hub

Never have I been so infuriated by the destruction of a cherished video game saga as this! Not even the Crap-for-brains fable III followed by the Fail-on-a-platter Fable the Journey pissed me off so much! Not even the way Diablo III Took everything good about the classic gothic-medieval-fantasy experience and warped it to suit the casuals, how it turned from Goth to W.o.W in ONE game! (Yes, in my opinion it was Goth...) Never have I truly ranted about it, but now that GPG's dungeon siege websites are GONE and now everytime I go to dungeonsiege.com I'm greeted with the god forsaken SQUARE ENIX LOGO, Screw it, time to scream!

I may be young, but in my short time on this earth I've become a devout gamer and because of these games I have been given the inspiration to draw and write and R.P and CREATE, and each time I see a franchise that means so much to me go down the tubes I... You understand. In my short time on this earth I've seen several of my favorite saga's crumble and it's time to let it out, maybe then I'll feel better.

Dungeon siege was the first game I called 'My favorite game', The first game that inspired my love in medieval-fantasy art and story alike. The gameplay was challenging and addictive, the graphics were beautiful then and hold up pretty well even now, the lore.. To me, at least, was amazing. The way Dryads are portrayed in Dungeon siege II is my favorite out of any game or story or legend to date. My first time journeying through the kingdom of ehb was action-packed and fulfilling and so was my second.. and my third... and my fourth... When I fought my way through Greilyn Isle only to meet the harsh desert of Aranna and eventually find my way into the color-rich jungles past Aman'lu, An amazing experience.

So much inspiration comes from these games, so much of my story is derived from this series. Not copied, mind you, but still.

So here, for those of you that have played it or even for those who haven't, please spit out your thoughts of Square Enix and what it's done to this series here. Don't worry, I'll be adding a lot more.
