My thoughts on the game..

Its good fun but I wish:

That you could switch to 1st person pov, or at least pan the camera down a little more so that you could see further in front of you.

They would develop a unch of expansions for all the different campaign settings from D&D. Al Quadim, Planescape etc.

Then this game would be ULTIMATE!

With the pan down idea I totally agree. With archers, it is really hard to get a decent shot from a distance. I am glad they,(archers) improve with experience though. Well, back to more gaming.

The camera idea is a popular one, I hope it gets relased like that in an expansion.

I think having tilesets and creatures from different worlds would be nice, but hopefully we'll get more from the Forgotten Realms before they start branching out. [img]smile.gif[/img]

unfortunately many of the familiar d&d campaign settings have been tossed to the wayside, for those who loved planescape they returned demons and devils to their 1st ed names (not Tanar'ri, Yugoloths or Baatezu), there is an outerplanes appendix that has much of the information needed to replicate a planescape campaign ( i think, not totally sure what it has to offer as I've only browsed through it) Ravenloft has been forced to separate itself from game worlds still supported by TSR (IE no lord Soth in sithicus, just a standard deathknight, Azalin isn't from Oerth anymore, Hazlik is no longer a Red Wizard of Thay, etc.) a Dark Sun mod would be great, but that campaign world has been dead for a long time (unfortunuate because it's my personal favorite, with Ravenloft right behind)

but with the toolset available you can recreate any d&d gameworld you desire, as long as you've got the patience to make it work.

Well the Manual of planes doesn´t really add that much for the Planescape fans out there. Planescape would need it´s own Campaign settings as Faerun got. Manual of the planes shows the generic planes and planeworld as an example. Doesn´t add that much to the Devils, demons and Gods and angles and such.. :S The book rather deals with issues for making and playing on the planes and travel astral and things to think of and watch out for. A couple of nice new prestige classes, feats and magic.

For thoose that wants to check out ongods check the Gods and Demigods, haven´t personally so I can´t tell you what to really expect from it (except alot of the gods and their avatars etc).

Wolfgir, still counting his claws to the days until NWN gets out here...

I wouldn't buy the Deities and Demigods book if I were you, I have it and it is brief compared to the last versions book. In the new book they really have only 3 pantheons described, Greek, Norse, and Egyptian. Too little, maybe they are going to put out a book 2, but I was disappointed in this one.
