Did they apply well the 3rd edition ?

Do you think that the 3E is the reason for IWD2 being so bad (so good, etc.)?


I think that the 3rd edition wasn't applied too well, but also not poorly. It was funny to use any weapon I wanted etc.
IWD2 is bad because of its weak story and clumsy battle system... yeah so partly this is the consequence of the wrong application of 3E indeed. But this is not the only reason.

If they had of created a game along the lines of BG2 but leaving behind the whole Bhaalspawn saga, moving the game up North to Sembia or Cormyr it could have been awesome.

I really enjoyed the character creation of the 3E implementation of IWD2, spells, abilities, feats etc but the game was way linear and it just became a dungeon crawl with little reason behind it.

I don't know how open the IWD2 engine is to modding but it could be a rich field if its as straight forward as BG2 modding has become now.

IcewindGate2 is a step in this direction and a good one too!

All we need now is a TC for this! (not volunteering!!)
