Hi Guys,

I will probably finish IWD/HoW/TotLM about the time that IWD3 is available, and IWD2 is selling for $10 including add-ons; but I thought I would ask now, while the memories of IWD are still fresh in your minds. How does IWD2 compare to IWD in terms of:

1.) Graphics;

2.) Player interface (screens/controls);

3.) Sounds, voice sets and music;

4.) Ability to build your own party (rolling characters, etc.)

5.) Ability to Export/Import characters into new IWD2 games;

6.) Game difficulty, length, and required playing style;

7.) Storyline and plot twists.

8.) Replay value (e.g., like HoF mode)

9.) Expo caps, richness of magic spell sets, etc.

10.) Things that irritated you about IWD:HoW that were solved in IWD2 (or the other way around.)

What's a party,
without a song?
Bards rock.
Party On!!
