Infinity engine peaked here
I always wanted a BG-style adventure set in Icewind Dale but with IW/Heart of Winter encounter design.
>>11491985What went so wrong with the sequel?
>>11492042Change of ruleset and updated more political setting.
>>11491985is that supposed to be an achievement or something? there's like 4 games that use the infinity engine including that one.
>>11492693There's 9 IE titles.
>>11492905bg1bg2Iwd1Iwd2Planescape???are you including expansions and EE as "titles"?
it peaked in the soul department. non-combat is a bit too reductive for me. feels almost like Diablo, with how little the chars interact with the world and how they are basically walking mannequins. Combat and dungeon-delving is peak though.
>>11491985>Infinity engine peaked herewould a dark sun rpg (part 3, not remakes of 1 and 2) look properly athasian in the engine?i would like to see something like this
>>11494002it would look like shit just like every other game in IE
>>11491985>can't progress dungeons without savescumming and restingit's utter shit. at least with BG they understood that the combat system isn't designed for trillions of subsequent enemy encounters.
>>11494179sounds like skill issue. >>11494067soulless hunk of flesh you are
>>11492921Yes pretty much. Or he is mistaking the Aurora Engine for the Infinity Engine and including: >Neverwinter Nights>Neverwinter Nights 2 >The Witcher
>>11491985What's do you think is better about the IWD engine than that of BG2? For one, BG2 brought actual dual-wielding, instead of the weird jank that IWD used. BG2 also added kits, which add a lot of replayability (and moddability).
>>11492042They were given an extremely short period of time to complete it. There's an easy to find video, on the tube, of one of the lead devs breaking down the production issues.
>>11494941want to replay bg2, got any cool story mods anon?
>>11496052I don't, but I'm sure someone does. I've only ever tried mechanical tweaks and content packs on the scale of Unfinished Business (which, IIRC, is good).
>>11496052Pull out Darkest Day and let 'er rip. I honestly don't remember much. Just that it was cool. Otherwise, I recommend Unfinished Business, too. I actually always promote that mod. It's really the best upgrade to the base game.
YOU MUST GATHER _____
IWD 2 is a decent game. It really kicks off after the monastery.IWD is very comfy, I was definitely surprised how fun it was.
>>11492042sequelitis, like fallout 2
>>11497784IWD 2 is like Tomb Raider 2 for me; the beginning is great and the end is great, but the entire middle is a slog
Anybody ever notice that the background music in Kresselacks Tomb is the Copper Coronet music slowed down?
