Dungeon Siege III
Dungeon Siege 3 is the third sequel in the series developed by the much-beloved Obsidian Entertainment. This time, the game has no auto-attack and uses the WASD control scheme with combat mechanics similar to a slasher game. This gives the game a more dynamic feel, but may disappoint the fans wishing to have a classic experience. Still, it's a nice original game that's worth our time.
