60 of 111 · most liked firstThere's a little game anniversary today, Icewind Dale's 25th. Which, yeah, releasing just a day after Diablo II did? Probably hurt it a wee bit. I have fond memories of this (and have played the EE since), and picked up on release, my excitement fuelled by my love for the Icewind Dale novels.

unlabelledView post →Some of my favourite Infinity Engine game music is in Icewind Dale, inspiring you with its grand sweep. It has to be noted that Jeremy Soule composed this music, who has disappeared from the game industry following multiple sexual harassment and misogyny allegations.

unlabelledView post →Character portraits I drew for my players. The game is set in Icewind Dale and I love that they all embraced the setting when coming up with characters
unlabelledView post →It's such a tricky art... fun attrition tests in a fast-paced RTwP like Icewind Dale can be tiresome in a slow RPG like Baldur's Gate 3... Because of these per-game particulaties & high entry barriers, we never had a community as vibrant as tabletop RPGs... I feel only NWN1 & RPG Maker got close :/

unlabelledView post →I'm in a bit of an anxiety spike at the minute, so that means time for my comfort game: Icewind Dale II! This time I'll attempt a solo run with each class to see how far they can get until they die. Not all right now, one each time I get a anxious spike 😅 Our first contestant; Barb the Barbarian
unlabelledView post →Somehow, I played Icewind Dale before Baldur's Gate when I was younger - I think it was, sincerely, the box art that grabbed me. It was *the* game that reinvigorated my love of RPGs, and I love returning to it.
unlabelledView post →Icewind Dale 2 is the most surreal game to have ever been made it's got the engine that ran millions of hours of AD&D and it's got 3.0 bolted straight onto the side of it
unlabelledView post →Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, Icewind Dale, Planescape Torment, and Eye of the Beholder are great and all, but the BEST videogame adaptation of D&D ever made wasn't even a roleplaying game:
unlabelledView post →Yep. And the reason we don't have Icewind Dale 2 Enhanced Edition is because the source code for that game was lost. For a while we hoped someone had it in their stuff, but they didn't. MAKE BACKUPS PEOPLE.
unlabelledView post →23 Years Ago: Icewind Dale II was released. Set around 30 years after the events of the original game, its plot revolves around the players fighting the Legion of the Chimera, which threatens to overrun the Ten Towns. #dnd #TBThursday #tbt forgottenrealms.fand...
unlabelledView post →I've played Icewind Dale 1 and 2, and played a premade set in it in a 5e game, and I have to admit: I fucking hate every last one of these towns, it's good that dark forces are going to destroy them
unlabelledView post →OK Josh Sawyer replied to a reply that means I'm playing Icewind Dale again by which I mean I'll do character creation the next two days followed by the rest of the game.
unlabelledView post →Morning light 🌅 Just wanted to draw the sweet boys cuddled up for their last sunrise before heading back to the perpetual dark in the Icewind Dale. Also less than 48 hours in game later they’re both in a very precarious fight and I am NOT OKAY 😩
unlabelledView post →In 2005, I didn’t have a Wacom tablet, so I painted the piece on the left with a mouse, based on a scanned ink drawing. Twenty years later, my love for Icewind Dale still endures, now realized in an official D&D video game.
unlabelledView post →Botched Game Room (missed VERY juicy artifacts). Decided to restart with same party. Encounters are actually scaling in Icewind Dale 2?🤨 There was only 6 guys at 6 lvl. At higher levels games turns into Diablo. You rushed by hordes of enemies. Strategy? Just shoot fireballs and hope for the best😅
unlabelledView post →For Random Game Saturday, here's what I'm now playing when I'm not working on a video: Icewind Dale II. It's the only one of the Infinity Engine games not readily available, and I never played it before so I picked up a copy.
unlabelledView post →The quality of this game is so high it makes me have insane, lovecraftian thoughts like "Maybe I should play Icewind Dale" or "Surely Neverwinter Nights *can* be fun"
unlabelledView post →Also drew the Autognome Forgekin duo I'll be playing with a friend for our upcoming Icewind Dale game. #dnd #ocsky #art #doodle
unlabelledView post →in awe of a guy I play tabletops with buying BG3, when he didn't like NWN or Icewind Dale, and finds D&D 5e combat extremely boring, and then complaining about not enjoying the game
unlabelledView post →So, my personal comfort game is Icewind Dale II. There's a lot of interesting things it does which I wish other D&D games did, but as I'm attempting a replay (solo fighter lol) it's reminded me that I love it gives items deep lore in a way I don't think has been done to the same degree since.
unlabelledView post →Reading Forgotten Realms lore for a game and it occurs to me, FR (and thus official #dnd) lore is very much about ‘names that describe things’ (Icewind Dale, Greypeak, High Forest) which is the exact opposite of Lord Dunsany style ‘exotic weird nonsense’ names. The former probably translates better
unlabelledView post →everything from lost mine of phandelver became a retread of bits of Against the Giants, Curse of Strahd is just name recognition: the module, Icewind Dale is the same for video game nerds
unlabelledView post →Made little sprites of the Icewind Dale players for a game I'm in.
unlabelledView post →Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn, then and now. Final Fantasy IX a close second, though. In a truly vintage year. Also kind of wild to see BG spinoff Icewind Dale came out *the same year* as BG2. Game development was ~different~ then.
unlabelledView post →It was decided in last night’s D&D game that the good people of Icewind Dale talk like they’re from Fargo.

unlabelledView post →a lot of the systems in Pillars were "what if really good game designers took a crack at the core conceits of D&D that they worked with back in the Baldur's Gate/Icewind Dale days?" chief among them: why would you use any particular weapon over another?
unlabelledView post →Reinstalling Icewind Dale 2 enhanced edition because I cannot and will not play this game in my insane "solo guy who gets all the XP and multiclasses" mode style with the quickloot bar NOT WORKING
unlabelledView post →404. D&D is a system designed to be fun at the table, not as a single-player video game. This is why Icewind Dale isn't as fondly remembered as Baldur's Gate and Planescape Torment: it's a hack-and-slash game using a system that's not fun to hack-and-slash on a computer.

unlabelledView post →Icewind Dale has a hell of a good opening, Im glad they basically just reused it for Pillars It is a game that makes me want more IE games and also makes me understand why they didnt
unlabelledView post →I - Icewind Dale A classic CRPG from 26 years ago. A thoroughly enjoyable game though not as engrossing as the main Baldur's Gate games were at the time.
unlabelledView post →It would be nice to play a D&D video game outside of the sword coast. Planescape and Icewind Dale were great adventures. How about Silverymoon, or Thay? Allowing us to cross the Shining Sea, or spelunk into the lowest depths of the Underdark? A return to Khorvaire mayhaps? #dnd #eberron
unlabelledView post →finished Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition + the Siege at Dragonspeare expansion this morning 10/10 game (though Siege is maybe more of an 8.5/10), fully turned me into a gamer for these last 29 days will take an extended break before BG2 or Icewind Dale because I need to be a responsible adult now

Salvatore's Icewind Dale trilogy and Dark Elf Trilogy. I read 'em all in 2 weeks! I'd forgotten how good they are. They really need a game or film series!

unlabelledView post →The Crystal Shard R.A. Salvatore First time and finally, I can see the appeal. I can also see how Icewind Dale the game took more from this than I guessed. Excellent D&D coded fun. So this is why 'Drow Ranger' became a thing for years. [RECOMMENDED, TO ALL WHO CROSS BLADES WITH THE 9 HELLS]

unlabelledView post →PoE was promoted as a throwback to classic Infinity Engine #crpg s, measuring against the original Baldur's Gate games, Planescape: Torment & Icewind Dale. It's impossible not to compare it to those games. Aesthetically, it matches & surpasses them.
unlabelledView post →49. Icewind Dale Enhanced Edition 2014. I wish for more 2nd editon dnd games in which you create your own party. The story is simple, the gameplay is fun although I regret some of my class choices, but this is the first time I've completed this game though I was desperate for it's release in 2014.
