Icewind Dale 2 Released -- 6:39 am CST, Update by J.t.Qbe
Black Isle's latest, Icewind Dale 2, shipped yesterday and may be hitting stores as early as today. It's another combat-oriented Infinity Engine AD&D game and will probably sell a zillion copies. I didn't plan to get Icewind Dale but got a great deal on clearance at Target. I didn't plan to like Icewind Dale because of it's linearity and heavy emphasis on combat, but ended up playing it quite a bit--more than I've played any other Bioware AD&D game. Icewind Dale 2 sounds cooler than the original. Must. . .avoid. . .EB. . .
A.T. Hun comments: The Gamespy review seems less than enthusiastic about it. I think it's high time that the Infinity engine was put out to pasture. And why is it that there's hasn't been an RPG in history (including my current fav Neverwinter Nights) that has decent pathfinding?
And now that you're back online, how about some of that NWN co-op we talked about?
I'll give you a call about some NWN online action. I still have some home network wrinkles to iron out.
