War in the Infinity Engine
I'll start this off with the bad parts. Icewind Dale 2 was not as awesome as Icewind 1 in a lot of ways, especially level design and environmental visual wise. Stuff looks great, and there are some more imaginative scenarios at play... but the actual visual design never left me as dazzled as Ice wind 1, and there are a couple of levels in this game that will make you want to tear your hair out in frustration... Having said that; this is STILL one hell of a ride! Gameplay is similar to Icewind 1 (and Baldurs Gate 2 by extension), but unlike its predecessors, Icewind Dale 2 uses the Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 edition rules, the same used in Neverwinter Nights 2 (albeit not as feature filled here). This makes for a party that's much more diverse and easily tweaked, and a a lot more useful skills. Likewise, the available weapon types are also expanded on. The plot is... okay. It is more fleshed out than Icewind Dale 1's story, but this is one of those games where you feel like you are forced into certain decisions that you don't agree with. It does, however, create some pretty a atmosphere, and for the first half of the game you'll really feel like you're a part of an ongoing war (especially if you have summoners in your party, which can enable you to summon up to 6 more goons for your crew, leading to epic battles of 12 vs the monsters). All in all, this is most certainly worth picking up. Its tons of fun, and does the previous infinity engine games proud.
