Does anyone have this game? A few you were telling me you thought it was real good. One of things I'll really like about is the 3E spell system, where you can have put lower level spells in higher level spell slots (eg- memorizing a magic missle as a 2nd level spell)
I've been playing Icewind Dale 1 right now with the Heart of Winter expansion, and have 2 mages (one is a specialist transmuter) , 2 pure fighters, one dwarf fighter/cleric and a pure cleric. The game's been pretty good except you have to reload a lot as combat can come quick and you can be killed real easy. I had these archers hit my mage with a -11 armor class repeatedly!! I hope I can finish this game however. it's been real good up to where I am now in Lower Dorn's deep, where I'm getting some bugs which I've never experienced before up until this point. It won't let me move to a certain place, and sometimes the enemies will sit there "twitching" while it says they are attacking, and sometimes my party members don't carry out the actions I give them, like I told one to attack someone and he walked up to him, and the enemy attacked while he stood there and let him hit him. So, I'm not sure if I should buy another interplay game, since this is not the first time it's happened, almost the same problem happened with the original Baldur's gate, making the game unplayable, but I'm not sure how they could fix these kind of bugs or why they come about in the first place, I'm guessing they probably did good testing of the software, could it be that some files can get corrupted somehow just like how drivers can?
