I have been playing both at roughly the same time , though obviously not both at once,. BG2 really is the more rounded experience as the depth of the story and the interaction of characters lead to a game which has evolved from both BG and IWD. However if i got too annoyed with BG2 i would slip in IWD and enjoy a period of charging around killing everything in sight without too much brain strain. The fact that I finished IWD and HOW before I finished chapter 5 of BG2 I think shows that while BG2 will certainly take longer to finish and is more enjoyable as a challenge IWD is more pick-up and playable. You make your own mind up.
