romeo_longsword Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 I have played almost all of the good DnD CRPG, BG 1 and 2 + expansion packs, IWD I and PST. I wonder if I should complete my experience in playing IWD as well, mind you its a 2 years old game and I wounder if its any good still.

romeo_longsword Posted December 28, 2004 Author Share Posted December 28, 2004 One of the reason I feel like getting it is because of the portraits IWD has. It might sound stupid but its like a tribute to the artist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellester Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Well, besides the portraits the graphics in general are the best of any of the IE games. But, that Quote Life is like a clam.

romeo_longsword Posted December 28, 2004 Author Share Posted December 28, 2004 I dont like the fact that I am buying a product off another source beside a shop or some sort of a retailer. That means I have to open some sort of account and worrying about package and if the box that comes with it its sealed, damanged or what not.

Rosbjerg Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 I have both games .. and I really like IWD2 .. for a multitude of reasons, I think it's a good story (not as great as 1 but good), and the character options are way better than IWD1 imo .. I would give IWD1 a 9/10 and IWD2 a 8/10! I really like how you visit all the old places in the sequal and see how it's changed.. Quote Fortune favors the bald.

EnderAndrew Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 I like making table-top characters for good systems, such as the World of Darkness. There's a lot more to it than rolling attributes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volourn Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 "There's a lot more to it than rolling attributes." If this is a silly crack at D&D; I hope you realize that its characetr creation is so far past rolling 6 ability scores which takes up such a small, small, small, small, small amount of characetr creation effort. Just plain silly. Quote DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Where is the portion of D&D character creation where you develop personality, ethics, background, etc? You can tell a lot about a roleplaying system by taking a peek at the character sheet. D&D is about "roll" playing. You can "role" play in D&D despite the rules. But that's not what the rules cater to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
