It looks pretty good but I'm playing Ascension right now and so won't be playing TDD for a while [img]smile.gif[/img]

IMHO that TDD is CRAP! It adds many spells, items, kits, etc, etc... But these are much worse made than original Bioware ones. Majority of kits is unplayable. Majority of new items are usable only by those kits.
OK, some spells are good.
Quests and dialogs are pathetic and often without sense. Example:

In some point of game you'll hear about demon Errtu. He is a character of Salvatore novels, and he is killed (and banished to Abbys for a century) by Drizzt in "The Crystal Shard". He appears here in game, being banished by a mage??? AFAIK, there is only one Errtu. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Irenicus in the opening scene: "I wanna go to the Underdark, somethiong cool is going on there" (or something like it) Not the way an evil mage talks. I'm still going to play it and hope it will be better.

I dont hate anybody, but I definetly do not like my enemies. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Nah, seriously, I'm not too fond of Anomen. Of all NPCs, Saemon Havarian is the one I dislike the most.

actually in Passage to Dawn Errtu's banishment gets undone and he comes back more powerful than ever. his banishment can be broken (as explained in passage to dawn) if he is summoned specifically by name by a powerful mage.

Yes I really dislike Saemon Havarian do you ever get the chance to kill him in TOB?(haven't played TOB yet though have it installed). As for Anomen his attitude is annoying yes but I actually found him to be a useful NPC once he passes his test. This is my third game and the one character I've never really used is Cernd. I always take him(apart from my evil party) to do Trademeet quests and then I do the quest about his wife and then it's bye bye Cernd. I don't hate any NPC they all can be useful in your party if played right but the one I dislike the most is Cernd but to be fair he does have 18 wisdom so he's not all bad.

I hate Minsc, he's such an idiot theres no way someone like him could survive in Faerun. Edwin is my favourite, his calculating evil style is the only way to get the job done with class

I also hate Aerie.....thats why I didn't bother raising her after she was killed by an Illithid in TOB...
