Worth it or not.

Just simply: Is IWD2 worth the 50$ it costs? Bear in mind that I only get 60$ a month.So If you were in my position, would you buy the game?

I'll go ahead and give you my two cents worth, and I know someone else will reply differently. First of all how much do you know about Black Isle D. & D. games? Because you could look at getting IceWind Dale one and Heart of Winter instead. Not to mention any of the Baldur's Gate games, (1 - 4).Also there is one called PlaneScape Tourment. I just think you should be aware of these other titles.

As for me personally, I like all these games, own all these games and would definatly recamend them to anybody who like playing Dungen and Dragons in general.

About your price line, I would think you could find a better deal, or go to the Interplay website and check about ordering it online because they are currantly selling all these games at. "I think", a reduced Price.

Hope this helps

Ooh it's worth it, compared to huh much timeyou can play it.
IWD2 has a high replay value, more compared to other games.

And if you also do the "hearth-of-fury"-mode (extra difficult) it takes even longer.

Where do you live that the game still costs $50,-?

I live in finland.(hope you guys know where that is:P)
And I have played Bg1,totsc,bg2,tob,and iwd through several times.Never played Planescape though.I've tried to look for it at the shops but i guess its just too damn old. Well anyways i tihnk the game costs about 40$(actually €'s but anyways)currently but its still quite a high price for my budjet.I think ill buy Iwd2 soon, and wait for planescape to become abandonware.(i sure hope that'll be soon).But please keep contributing with your own ideas on the subject.

If you played and even liked IWD, IWD2 is worth the money.

Whole new system to get used to (3rd edn)
Multiple modes of play (Heart of Fury)
Different parties and new races/classes
Huge areas and lots of them.
