Anymore Infinity Engine Games? |
|
I'm a little slow on getting to games. I always seem to play them after they've been out for a while.
I'm also finished BG and just started IWD.
I love these games and more important I love the infinity engine. I plan on getting and playing BG 2 and IWD 2.
So my question is why don't they ( someone ) make some more D&D games using this engine? I admit I haven't played NWN, but to me the Infinity style engine just feels/looks more like what I enjoy.
Even better would be some way to create modules for IWD or BG. Now that would great.
Just wondering if anyone else is thinking like this. |

First of all, yes - Infinity is a very nice engine, or at least it was for quite a time.
With regard to games based on it. These are what I know/played:
1. Baldur's Gate
2. Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast
3. Icewind Dale
4. Icewind Dale: Heart of Winter
5. Planescape: Torment
6. Baldur's Gate 2: Shadow of Amn
7. Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal
8. Icewind Dale 2
Also keep in mind that there are many nice mods (modifications) for Baldur's Gate series. The best known are - Dark Side of the Sword Coast and The Darkest Day. You can download them for free. These are not completely free of bugs, but I found that those bugs are worth fighting with
As for Aurora engine (Neverwinter Nights) it was a bit hard for me to switch to it from Infinity, but in fact it is not that bad. I think it is just that the first game made with it was not of the Baldur's Gate quality. |

The expansion pack for IWD (Heart of Winter) was very short, but if you have it you might as well download “Trials of Loremaster” for free. _________________ Money - An article which may be used as a universal passport to everywhere except heaven, and as a universal provider of everything except happiness. |
