Ultimately, Dungeon Siege III is an easy-to-play popcorn journey into the classic action-RPG genre, hitting every checkbox. There is little innovation here, but it offers plenty of examples of how good design and development practices can make a derivative game enjoyable — and how a pretty severely console-designed game can be adjusted to feel largely right on a PC.
Full Steamworks integration certainly doesn't hurt, though some may find $50 too steep of a price for 30 hours of gaming popcorn. Regardless of your gaming preferences, you could certainly do a lot worse than Dungeon Siege III, but when it hits a Steam sale, it'll be worth picking up.

If this wasn't playable on X1 too I'd never get round to playing it. No idea how good it is but worth a go!
