Enhanced Edition Review I really liked the blend of tactical combat and the deep RPG mechanics from the pen-and-paper game translated into a video game. While Baldur's Gate laid the foundation, it had several issues. Icewind Dale fixes many of them, although it introduces a few new ones of its own. Gameplay I won't describe the core gameplay mechanics that define Baldur's Gate, as they're largely the same here. What matters is how Icewind Dale changes the focus. While both games look similar on the surface, Icewind Dale places a much greater emphasis on combat encounters, and it improves them significantly. Experience comes much faster, allowing you to move beyond the slow and restrictive early levels more quickly. The game also features larger, more challenging battles that require better tactics and party composition. This works especially well because you create your entire party from scratch. Since there are no recruitable companions and you cannot rebuild your characters later, every decision during character creation matters. From a combat perspective, Icewind Dale is the superior game. There is a greater variety of magical items to discover, more high-level encounters, and generally more rewarding battles. The game even features a dragon fight, something the original Baldur's Gate surprisingly lacked. Enhanced Edition Like the Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition, this version modernizes the original game with widescreen support, quality-of-life improvements, and compatibility with modern systems. However, the effort feels much more modest. Unlike Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition, it doesn't introduce major new content such as additional companions or storylines. Story Unlike Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale doesn't feature recruitable companions with unique personalities, dialogue, or personal quests. Instead, the game is almost entirely focused on combat. The main story has an interesting premise and, in my opinion, a more surprising twist than Baldur's Gate. However, the narrative is much less dense, and the constant stream of combat encounters can become exhausting over time. Side quests are relatively rare, but the ones that are present are generally well-written and engaging. Even so, Baldur's Gate offered a much more memorable world and cast of characters. Sound Because your party consists of custom-made characters, there is very little voiced dialogue beyond the combat voice sets you choose during character creation. NPCs also have far fewer voiced lines than in Baldur's Gate. The soundtrack is still excellent and fits the game's atmosphere well, but I found it less memorable than Baldur's Gate's music, particularly its iconic exploration and environmental themes. Conclusion/TL;DR Icewind Dale is an excellent RPG with a very different focus from Baldur's Gate. Players looking for memorable companions, character interactions, and a story-driven experience will disappointed. However, anyone who enjoyed Baldur's Gate's combat and wanted a game that expands and refines that aspect will find exactly what they're looking for here. While I believe the lack of memorable companions ultimately hurts the overall experience more than the improved combat enhances it, Icewind Dale is nevertheless a fantastic tactical RPG and one of the best combat-focused Infinity Engine games.
simply a timeless classic, every rpg fan should play this masterpiece at least once in their life. its just as good as baldurs gate 1, but even tho it also has a linear campaign and a decent story, the main focus here is exploring dungeons. its literally one dungeon after another and the atmosphere this kind of game has is unique and incredibly immersive, from the dungeon design and creatures to the ambient sounds and music. just play it if you enjoy a good rpg, especially one with real time combat and no turn based mechanics. you can even enable the command console if you want to make the difficulty easier and focus only on adventuring and enjoying the journey, which is truly memorable and massive!!
Very similar mechanically to Baldur’s Gate, but the focus is completely different. Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition is basically the Infinity Engine combat showcase. Instead of joining pre-written companions, you create your entire party from scratch and head into a frozen adventure. It’s perfect for players who loved BG2 combat but thought there was too much talking and reading between fights. The game shines in atmosphere — the snowy landscapes and hand-painted backgrounds still look great, and dungeon crawling feels very satisfying. Combat happens often and party composition actually matters a lot. However, compared to Baldur’s Gate, the emotional attachment is weaker. Since your party consists of your own created characters, they don’t really have personalities or stories, so it ends up feeling more like a very competent monster-slaying expedition than a character-driven RPG. You fight a lot, and you fight well, but you rarely care as much. + excellent tactical combat + beautiful hand-painted locations + full party creation freedom − minimal character storytelling − weaker narrative depth than BG − repetitive dungeon-heavy structure
Wow. Nostalgia. I played this game years ago. Back then, my English wasn't very good and I finished it with the help of a walkthrough on a website. This enhanced edition has an incredibly high-quality Turkish translation. I was surprised and delighted to see this in a game with such long dialogues. Thank you for adding Turkish subtitles and for doing it so perfectly. Edit: It seems a new part is added, Castle Maluradek Courtyard. Its completely a different mind from the original (no clue what to do). I spent hours here in vain. Then checked comments to open that lovely gate. I wish I did it before. Just go read that steam comment about 'not opening' if you get stuck there.
Amazing game! It is even better with the mods out there like stragems and npc project which add a ton of new npcs, dialogue and new content. Believe it or not but there is still a healthy modding community for the forgotten realms games bg1, bg2, iwd 1 and iwd 2...There is even a mod that combined bg1, 2 and iwd 1 into one giant game. It is really sad they can't make an iwd 2 ee because that game is soo good. The story is as good as bg 2 and the dnd rules are the best. Some day!
