Hmmm... IWD was kinda hack and slay, this one has more plot. But you start at a high level, and the magic items BLOW IWDs AWAY. It moves a LOT faster than BG1 did, but not as fast as IWD. Your chars will get to 18th to 21st level, giving you access to spells you could have only had in PST. The direction is a lot clearer than BG1, and you don't wander from area to area in a quest for discovery. Each area has a quest here, and a clear path. I guarentee you will like this game more than IWD, and I am a HUGE fan of IWD. I just LOVED my cleric getting to lvl 21 and having those BOSS 7th level spells! "Gate" is a blast.
