Icewind Dale II Preview at Stratos Group
Posted Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 21:19 CET by Mollusken

The last preview for today comes from Stratos Group, and they too seemed to like the game.

That is what it all comes down to, I suppose. If you are looking for something brand-new, this is probably not it. If you did not like the earlier games, you will probably feel the same way about Icewind Dale 2. On the other hand, if Black Isle is able to take what the preview version had and spread it throughout the rest of the game, then they will have a real winner. It will be the things that made each of the other games good, plus the lessons that Black Isle has learned over the past five years, mixed together and condensed into what could potentially be the best Infinity Engine game to date. If they can pull it off - and I really hope that they can!
