Heart of Winter Expansion Interview

RPGVault has posted up an interview with Steve Bokkes, designer on Black Isle's upcoming downloadable expansion to Heart of Winter. Quotage to follow:

    Jonric: Do you have a sense yet of how long it should take to play through? And is it aimed at characters of any certain minimum level?

    Steve Bokkes: We've only just begun the testing and balancing phase, but, all in all, I'd say it should take at least eight to 10 hours to complete the adventure. As far as level requirements go, we had a hard time deciding the exact level range we wanted to gear the adventure towards. Since this project is all about the fans, I posted a poll on our message boards asking what level we should shoot for. Most of the replies indicated that the players wanted a high level adventure for parties of 14th level and up. That sounded about right to me. However, as Darren was quick to point out, it is possible to complete both Icewind Dale and Heart of Winter and still have a party that is well below 14th level.
