The official Icewind Dale II website has updated with a link to an interview at Icebound, a fansite for Black Isle's Icewind Dale II. Tex Yang and Chris Avallone from Black Isle were Icebound's responsive partners and both are game designers if I remember correctly.
Here's an excerpt:6) What was the single hardest moment of converting IWD2 from 2nd edition rules to 3rd edition rules?
Tex: In my opinion there really wasn’t one particular moment that was the hardest in converting IWD2 from 2nd edition to 3rd edition. Since we couldn’t really overhaul the whole game in one fell swoop overnight, it was a gradual process which had different hard moments throughout. The closest single moment I can think of, if it could be classified as one, would be the time we decided to go 3E to begin with - from that moment on, things have been pretty much on overdrive ever since.
Chris: For designers, Domain priests and the Intimidate/Diplomacy/Bluff checks. The programmers may have a different (and longer) list. |
