Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition

All I was hoping for was a correction to high wisdom scores not adding to saves vs. magic properly. It was all I wanted. For the high wisdom requirement classes that were given low magic saves in the rules to balance out by those wisdom scores adding to their magic saves. It is really damn simple. It is the way it is suppose to work. The cleric who can fix the party is suppose to be better at making those mass disabling saves. It ruined and unbalanced BG, they left in the EE, and they did not do better here. This is the result of nightly using different random coders implementing whatever random code they felt like, who had no appreciation or understanding of the ruleset.

Outside of atmosphere, this game does nothing better than the other IE games. This game has a ton of combat against repetitive and tanky enemies, so hopefully you like IE combat and 2nd Edition. Otherwise, Baldur's Gate has more (and better) story and NPCs as well as more varied combat. Torment has (in my opinion) better atmosphere, better world building and even better NPCs yet. Personally, IWD does very for me. Some of the music and portraits I enjoy, as well as some later bossfights.

GOD THIS IS ANNOYING

++++++++ A silent protagonist ++++ The setting is pretty good imo ++ The sidequests are decent imo ++ The ui is very intuitive imo ++++ You make your own party of 6 adventurers ++++ The gameplay is decent for such an old game imo ++++ There is a story mode ++++ The area loot button is amazing imo ++++ It works great on Linux ++++ The character creation is pretty good imo ++++ The inventory system is pretty good, and it makes us carefully consider what loot to keep and what to toss away ++++ We can do the dlc after the main quest if we want to, and i think that helps the structure of the game a lot ------ There are very few dialogue options in this game ------ The dialogue options are very specific and that limits roleplaying imo, i wish they had added some basic dialogue options like yes and no and maybe later. Those dialogue options are great because they allow us to decide what our characters mean when we choose one of those options ---- I don't think of this as an rpg, i think of this as an interactive book. to be fair though, most RPGs are just interactive books/movies imo, at least this one is fun -- I don't like that we have to "roll" for our attribute points, it's just a waste of time imo -- It's not 3rd edition or pathfinder :/ -- For some reason magic users can only use staves - slings or darts, and clerics can only use maces - clubs and flails :/ For me it was worth the money to experience the story and the world, but i don't consider this a true rpg. I consider this an interactive book with a decent story.
