Tags: Icewind Dale 2GameAxis has typed up a review of IWD2. He faulted the pathfinding, a few missing third edition rules, and the simplistic journal. Overall, the review is favorable though, calling it a quality CRPG.
Although IWD2 did not revolutionized the CRPG genre like what Neverwinter Nights did, it proved that a well polished good old engine can also fork out an immeasurable number of fun. Incorporating right combat balance, consistent pacing, good dialogues, refined gameplay and new rules, IWD2 has established itself as one of the most enjoyable CRPG released this year. Without a doubt, BIS has yet again proved they know what makes a CRPG tick and delivered where it matters.
Okay, so what exactly did NWN do that revolutionized the CRPG genre?
