Dungeon Siege Expansion Showcased
Thanks to several readers for pointing to the press release announcing Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna, the official expansion pack to Gas Powered Games' popular PC FRPG. There's also an interview at IGN PC which offers more details on this Mad Doc co-developed expansion, promising "..a completely new series of fabulous locations.. UI enhancements, new monsters and a massive amount of new stuff throughout the game." Meanwhile, the original Dungeon Siege is still proving popular with fans and mod makers, with the Copperhead sci-fi total conversion a current favorite.
On the MGS website for Dungeon Siege, it seems that FRPG is a "Fantasy Role Playing Game." Isn't that kind of redundant? Most all RPGs are fantasy, except for Leisure Suit Larry. ...well, that's fantasy too, but you get my drift.
Kids these days. They don't know the difference between classic, and just plain old.
