Is it just me or has IWD become the contrarian pick for Infinity Engine games?>I don't wanna be a normie and like BG2 so I go with the vastly inferior and less praised DnD game IWD

I don't know why people fallate this game so much. It wasn't terrible but just very generic wrpg setting with basically no memorable stuff happening throughout the entire game. It felt like's someone's first DnD campaign to test out the waters.

r8 my insane scs party. didn't want to dual class cheese
berserk dwarf. longswords. dps that chunks everything
fighter/druid helf. scimitars. backup divine, summon insects and tanks with earth elemental transformation
cleric dwarf. probably better as fighter/cleric but I wanted divine spells asap.
necromancer human. spell chucker. forgot iwd forbids two schools, probably should be a sorc instead.
mage human. for all my arcane use. didn't want a bard.
fighter/thief dwarf. wanted to give backstabbing a go. it's okay. you can probably skip thieves in iwd.

It really is, and 2 is not half bad as well.In fact the simple story and the music and amazing Justin Sweet art elevate the trash that is forgotten realms to something actually good.I had no idea that there a couple of decent npc mods these days as well, and tons of fan made quest content, some shit but some really good.

Agreed, there is perhaps no game more suitable for putting in some portrait mods and roleplaying as an anime harem protagonist. Bonus points if you pick bard and have your female party members do all the heavy lifting in combat.

I was really enjoying hard mode since it actually changes enemy encounters instead of just inflating stats but ended up getting filtered by dragon's eye.

Been having very comfy times with IWD2 (GoG). Running it with widescreen fix @ 1280x800 and scaled to fullscreen. I'm playing it with a 14" laptop while chilling on the couch so the upscaling is just fine, the picture doesn't get blurry to the point you'd notice it.
A
Anon02/26/26, 13:46No.3935396
Scaled these screens in GIMP, it's actually a good example just how good the hardware scaling is compared because the game looks way better and sharper live.

I don't know if it's an EE feature or not, but in EE there's an option to disable difficulty-related damage increases so you only get the changed encounters and not the double damage taken. The overall experience on Insane is tough but fair.

if you're playing iwd ee there's no excuse not to play on insane scs. dual wielding, high level abilities and kits completely break the difficulty of the game.

I wish the swordflight guy had just made a bunch of self contained modules instead of a big series. The later chaqpters don't look fun at all with all the higher level bullshit.
More modules around the chapter 1-2 level ranges with their own stories and interesting gimmicks would have been kino

I wish these games had turn based combat like fallout 1 and 2. They're just too clunky for me, and it's sad, because I'm sure I'm missing out on rich stories and worlds

there is nothing better than having a full custom party where I don't have to listen to cringe dialogue. I roleplay all the characters in my head, the way I want them to be
A
Anon03/08/26, 22:40No.3941183
The first time I played through BGEE (I had played the original BG1 a few times already) I made a custom party, and I went through the whole game without imagining them talking to each other at all. They do still say things when clicked on or ordered around, though.I don't play RPGs to hear my character(s) talk, though I accept dialogues with npcs.Anyway yeah, the "crpg renaissance" was fucking garbage. A bunch of no-talent libshits ruining the genre. There were some sci-fi ones that were good to fantastic, but I haven't played a fantasy one that is.

Has anyone else ever noticed that the music on the first floor of Kresselacks tomb (and maybe the other floors; not sure) sounds an awful lot like a slowed down Copper Coronet theme?

Playing the game right now. It went from exciting to mediocre half-way through. Now I'm doing Luremaster trials and I'm a on a verge of calling this trash. Too much superfluous text for a dungeon crawler, too little plot for a narrative RPG. Long stretches of nothing but tiring combat or questioning NPCs without any real choices in dialogues. Great music but it doesn't loop so only silence accompanies the player while he reads paragraphs of text. Buggy content, counterintuitive design, interactions hidden from the player because you chose wrong party member to talk with. The list goes on.Jeremy Soule's music and Justin Sweet's art can only elevate so much.

Lads, I'm old and lazy. I've had IWD 1 and 2 sitting on my gog account forever but never played it because you have to make 6 characters and that seemed like too much hassle. BG and BG2 are in my top 10 of all time favorite games so I really should play IWD.What is the absolute optimal party, proficiencies, alignment, etc. for a comfy playthrough?
A
Anon03/13/26, 18:24No.3944359
It's more comfy with the original interface in the original engine instead of using the BG2 engine.

Anon03/13/26, 18:32No.3944365
I tried some of the custom npcs for IW1 and 2 hanging around, customised their portraits a bit, some are very gay, but some are really cool, and it immediately blasted bg2 out of the water. In fact theres a very distinct PST feel to paying icewind dale.
