Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna Impressions

GameSpot has written up their impressions of Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna, based upon what they saw at this year's Gen Con. Check it out:
The expansion will add nine new areas to the original game, and should offer about 15 hours of additional gameplay. Though you'll start the game as an inexperienced adventurer, you'll be able to pick up some new items and skills early on in the game that will make sure you don't have too much trouble playing relatively weak beginner characters. For instance, the expansion pack will offer a new line of magic spells called orb spells, which summon a glowing magical orb that floats around your character and provides temporary bonuses of varying kinds.
