Castle Crashers vs Dungeon Siege
Castle Crashers
Castle Crashers is a fun arcade-like action-adventure game where you can team up with up to four of your friends to crash some castles and save the princess in distress. Being a lot like a mini-game, Castle Crashers provides players with a wide range of game modes as well as over 25 cute characters who can wield more than 40 different weapons. The combat system in this game is very nicely done as well. Instead of using a simple hack-and-slash system, the game implements an intuitive combo and magic system where using the correct sequence of skills to unleash a combo effect is more important than clicking frantically.Level up your character and invest stat points into the stat that benefit your hero the most. There are also animal orbs that you can carry around with you, each of which provides you with a unique ability to help you in your adventures.
If all of these sound just like what you like in a game, you should definitely check out Castle Crashers. It can guarantee you and your friends hours of hilarious fun as you hop and hack your way through various locations.
Dungeon Siege
Dungeon Siege is a classic dungeon crawler that predates the first Torchlight but not the Diablo series. In this game, you play as a humble farmer who sets off across a 3D fantasy world, battling against hordes of enemies as the storyline unfolds. The most interesting part of this game, back in the day, is that it's a dungeon crawling game that is set above ground and surprisingly not in dungeons. In some way, it is more like certain parts of Diablo 2 and also Path of Exile.The game also has an interesting take on loot and inventory management. You'll get a ton of loot as befit a dungeon crawler, but the thing is you have a very limited inventory, even with a pack mule, and no vendors nearby enough to sell your loot to. So, you'll likely end up throwing most stuff on the ground just so you can move on. Dungeon Siege even allows you to assemble up to a party of 8 characters to aid you in your journey.
However, Dungeon Siege is a really old game and as such, the Steam version does have its fair share of glitches. You may experience constant crashes and installation difficulties even if you're running a top-notch desktop set-up. Some players have also mentioned that the ending of the game was cropped off somehow and that this version of the game doesn't include its expansion or a multiplayer option.
All in all, Dungeon Siege is among the top 5 classic dungeon crawlers back in the day and if you are interested to give it a try, you can get the game for as low as $1 during a Steam sale.
