It's definitely worth playing if you enjoy the CRPG Infinity engine, and want more storyline, character, and playing style options than in BG2. Think of it as being on one extreme of the current spectrum; IWD is on the other, and BG2 is about two-thirds of the way towards P:T.
I found it an excellent game. I do wish it had been balanced for a slightly larger selection of NPCs (there are only 7 in all, plus your own, to build a party of 6), but the game is otherwise very flexible, and really creates a haunting atmosphere through its prose. |
