This is for the one person who did not know what was.

 

 

 

 

(I got the information from Moby games)

Released: Jun 30, 2000

Published By: Interplay

Developed By: Black Isle Studios (Black Isle is some of the developers came from that now work at Obsidian)

MobyScore: 3.9 (out of 5)

Platform: Windows

Genre: Adventure, Role-Playing (RPG)

Perspective: Isometric

Non-Sport: Medieval / Fantasy, Real-Time

 

Description

Welcome to the Northern Faerun, where winter never ends. In this harsh realm of ice only a few hardy survivors live. Nowadays even those few survivors find the conditions a step higher.

 

You and your party, has just arrived to a small fishing village. There is an expedition that will soon begin, whose main reason is helping a troubled nearby tree-village of humans, Kuldahar.

 

In this hack-n-slash cRPG you play a combat oriented Baldur's Gate. Which means the graphics, the system, the interface and everything is just the same. The only real difference between the two is there is a lot more enemies to kill and much fewer NPCs to talk to. Nevertheless the title, with the other Infinity Engine Games (Baldur's Gate, Planescape Torment), marks a great age in cRPG history.

 

 

 

 

Here is where you can buy the game if you want to participate, you can buy it used for 2 bucks.

Okay, also I've been having some troube with sister's computer, it keeps on kicking me out of Icewind Dale. Also for some reason when I try to install Icewind Dale on my computer nothing happens.

Is Icewind very good? I'm getting the expansions to NWN, and then I'll check out the Baldur's Gate series... I admit, I'm hooked on Faerun now... (They still can't beat the old Dragonlance books, though.)

IWD is great. :(

 

But seriously, I love all the IE games. IWD 1 & 2, BG 1 and 2, PS;T,

 

But there are those who don't like them. Or who love BG but hate IWD.

 

If you decide to try them, I would suggest in this order.

 

IWD, BG, BG2, IWD2 and PS;T.

 

Why??

 

Because once you have played BG with all the different kits, it is hard to go back to IWD. I have seen many hate IWD because it did not have kits and other features like BG2.

 

And why PS;T for last??? Because it has the best story and the best spell effects of them all despite having older graphics. I remember being dissapointed when I played ToB because I felt that it was three steps back compared to PS;T. Of course what I did not know at the time is that it was realeased even before BG2.

 

But that is just my opinion.
