Like others, I truly enjoyed the aspect that you were able to create the party you always wanted to but weren't permitted to do so with other RPGs such as BG1 and 2 (which I also liked). The music is awesome, the graphics are good, and with Heart of Winter and Trials of the Luremaster it is a fun game. Yes it is a hack & slash, but a fun hack and slash. Plus with HoW there is actually a little more role playing involved with side quests. There is even a demand for diplomacy along the way with the add ons. In addition IWD/HoW are now cheap and TotL is free. Can't go wrong there! I think this is a perfect game to install if you don't have the money for NWN and IWD2. By the way, your fighting tactics will be challenged. Good luck.
