FiringSquad has shot up a review of Black Isle's Icewind Dale II. They awarded the game a score of 78%.
Here's a snip:Black Isle’s roleplaying games have an almost universal appeal, and they’ve never had a lackluster product. Icewind Dale II still stands above than your typical PC RPG produced, but gamers expect more from a Black Isle game; one of the many responsibilities top-dog companies such as Blizzard, iD, and Epic implicitly assume when they rise above the rest. Icewind Dale II is a stumbling block of sorts, and a clear indication that the Infinity-engine has finally reached its limitations, especially in light of the recent, fantastic development in PC RPG engines such as Morrowind and Neverwinter Nights. |
