Well I will say I have never dropped the difficulty setting in IWD2 only coz i'm totally against doing it as I feel like i'm cheating - seriously it's almost an ego thing where I pit myself against the whole game muttering things like "Them F$&@ers wont beat me!" as I reload my last save [img]smile.gif[/img]
I would never call IWD2 difficult... It is however, challenging and probably the most challenging IE game yet. In my view 'Difficult' is something that is extremely hard to master or beat with very few options open to you to do this, which isn't the case at all here.
This time I think they wanted to give the hardcore fans a real run for their money, BG2 boasted great RPing and interesting storylines but (lets face it) wasn't very challenging at all when it came to the foes (They've even made mods to remedy the final battle as it was too easy for alot of people).
But yeah, my point is i'm enjoying it just the way it is, I think to up the difficulty rating would upset a balance that Black Isle achieved here.
Not too easy not too tough
