taks Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 I didn't mind IWD2. I actually enjoyed the game for the most part, outside of the forest and the trials. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i think the leading comment on the black isle boards was "whoever did the forest design should be shot." taks comrade taks... just because.
Pidesco Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 i think the leading comment on the black isle boards was "whoever did the forest design should be shot." taks And who actually did it? "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Dark_Raven Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 What was wrong with the forests besides they being rather small? Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
LoneWolf16 Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Well, for one, it was freakin' annoying. I gave up on getting through it until I finally broke down and used a walkthrough... :"> I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast

I was talking about IWD2 with my friend yesterday, and he used those exact same words.
Musopticon? Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Hah, the forest was easy. Anyone with one point on Wilderness Lore could do it. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
Sargallath Abraxium Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 ...it be funny how most hated the cursed woods...was one o' me favorite parts; I's thought it was very well done...the redone Hand o' the Seldarine, on the other hand... " ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!... A long, long time ago, but I can still remember, How the Trolling used to make me smile. And I knew if I had my chance, I could egg on a few Trolls to "dance", And maybe we'd be happy for a while. But then Krackhead left and so did Klown; Volo and Turnip were banned, Mystake got run out o' town. Bad news on the Front Page, BIOweenia said goodbye in a heated rage. I can't remember if I cried When I heard that TORN was recently fried, But sadness touched me deep inside, The day...Black Isle died. For tarna, Visc, an' the rest o' the ol' Islanders that fell along the way
Musopticon? Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 I liked the woods. Well, it was frustrating at first, but in the end I enjoyed advancing there. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Dark_Raven Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 If this is about the puzzle forest than yes it did suck. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Gorth Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Too many trees in the forest. Makes it hard to find your way out without that one skill you never thought you were going to spend points on I kind of liked it once I figured out how it worked But I probably also belong to the minority who liked IWD2. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
Dark_Raven Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Perhaps so my good Gorth. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Jumjalum Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Both the collections have been dispatched today so I'll post if there are any bonus features. I suppose the soundtracks are too much to ask for. " We now bring you live footage from the World Championship Staring Final.
BicycleOfDeath Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) I liked all of the D&D IE games. I could play them and liked it. Something the community had to do for me for NWN. -.- Edit: Ack! Icewind Dale is only playable in 640x480? Edited June 28, 2006 by AngryKidJoe Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.
Lare Kikkeli Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Edit: Ack! Icewind Dale is only playable in 640x480? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The reason i can't play it anymore, not after TuTu and IWD2.
WinterSun Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Heart of Winter lets you play in 800x600. master of my domain Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo.
Jumjalum Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Heart of Winter lets you play in 800x600. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, I've never played IWD in 640x480. We now bring you live footage from the World Championship Staring Final.
BicycleOfDeath Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 *looks for his HoW install disc* Whoohoo! I didn't leave that one 1300 miles away. Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.
Dark_Raven Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Don't forget to install Trials of Luremaster. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
BicycleOfDeath Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) Bah, everytime I click on "New Game" it crashes. Icewind Dale and I are just not getting along. I might have to play Icewind Dale II instead. Edited June 28, 2006 by AngryKidJoe Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.
Dark_Raven Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Patched? What are your specs, OS? Of all of the IE games I found Incewind Dale to be the least buggy of them all. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
BicycleOfDeath Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) Patched, yes. My stats are in my sig. I uninstalled / reinstalled and it works fine w/ just the core game. Edit: Except I'm in Windows XP until I get my Linux harddrive replaced (fried: Good ol' Texas lightnin') Edited June 28, 2006 by AngryKidJoe Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.
Dark_Raven Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Try going to the games icon and change the compatibility so it runs under Win95/98? Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
BicycleOfDeath Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) It was a bad install. One of the main GUI buttons didn't install right. That's what I get for multitasking. Edit: Funny, the 1.06 patch corrupts my game no matter where I download it from. Edited June 28, 2006 by AngryKidJoe Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.
Dark_Raven Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 IWD>HoW>TotL Install Trials of the Luremaster, it contains the latest fixes and I never had any problems with it. I never used any of the patches since the add-ons contained fixes. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
