LegitHyperbole said: They are worth full price. However I must warn, they are very complex. If your wife is not a hardcore gamer, skip it. Also, choosing the proper party members really changes the game so don't just pick up the first two you come across, check them all out specifically if it's DOS2. And always choose the pet pal perk as your starting perk on one of your mains. Also, DOS1 is significantly tougher to get through the first area of the game cause it takes actual exploration and brain power, expect to be roaming around for a long time until you figure it out. DOS2 is much easier to progress in but has a much more complex battle system with one simple change that there are two different armours for magic and physical, it may not sound like much but it really effects things in a big way and makes choosing classes for your party members really important. And...also, also, also... if playing DOS2, play with original characters, the game would be a lot more band if you were rolling two create your own characters. They have great little stories and alm characters interact with each other and effect each others stories in unique ways, especially along the main scenario. |
We played Everquest together for years, but that was 20-25 years ago. The problem is not hardcore games, it's to find time to play with kids around. So it all depends on how hard it is to stay in the game and its mechanics when only playing a couple hours on the weekends. (We used to play Everquest 3 hours a night, longer in the weekends)
DOS2 sounds better for that, don't want to spend an hour roaming around not progressing with limited play time.
Thanks for the tips!
