Icewind Dale II Review at Silven Crossroads
Posted Friday, February 14, 2003 - 19:34 CET by Mollusken

Silven Crossroads have also review Icewind Dale II, and just like in most other cases it was right behind Neverwinter Nights with a score of 7.75 out of 10. Here's an excerpt:

Although our tests found the game to be bug free after installing the latest patch, we did find some logical errors in the game mechanics. On numerous occasions we moved from one area to another, and appeared in the middle of an enemy encampment or right next to a group of adversaries. It would seem logical that the party would have sighted them if they were so close to the area entrance, when coming from the previous area.

On the upside, the Dungeons and Dragons feats and skills are wonderfully implemented allowing a PC to use his Wilderness skill to detect details in his surrounding area and using Animal Empathy to calm enraged beasts and so on.

Get everything here.
