Quoted from from home page:
"There are three big new features in Dungeon Siege II multiplayer. The first is that each player can control multiple characters, so it feels like you and your friends are each controlling part of a single, large party.
Like having a huge backpack I suppose as well. I like and don't like this idea. A player with one hack char is enough, that he could now bring multiple hack chars in the game worries me. The fact that I could have characters hold items for me until I can use them would be cool and yet somehow change gameplay. Now players may hang onto items they can't use that someone else can at the moment. Have to think more on this.
Quoted from from home page:
The second is that you can save multiplayer games and pick up right where you left off.
I still am not sure I get this. Does that mean that all that where playing would have to be there to carry on? If so what are the odds of that? Has cool potential though. Have to give more thought if I feel I would use this. If DSII is really more story oriented, as they say it will be, then I can see it being a very nice idea.
Quoted from from home page:
And the third is that everyone gets his or her own quest rewards, so there's less arguing about who gets the rare "Bloodletter" sword."
Now that will be nice. I get tired of people racing for the chests and getting whacked etc. fighting over who might get the cool drop when we made it there as a team. I liked that all players got there own stones. Seems like the best drops are most always for the highest level player/s anyway. When all players are legit there is much more of the abilty for them to discuss who could use what the best/most. I suppose there may still be the one player that swoops up all the "Bloodletter swords" or something ridiculous, but not a big deal. Just don't play with them again. lol

When I whisper of deep dark space
Or ponder upon that of the rhyme of time
I find there is no change in the words of rhyme
Whereas there is in both space and time
