Just got the game this morning and so far I like it, but it did crash a couple of times on me. The graphics are as expected from the original game, and some of the early encounters are pretty challenging. Some of the side plots are carried over from the original game and have become the basis for the plot of this game. The company has worked on increasing the easy of game play and fascilitating ease of combat (i.e. all characters now have 2 quick weapon slots which replaces a delema from the orginial game - do I give my mage, cleric, or multiclassed character a melee or ranged weapon). New weapons and spells are also introduced as is a higher experience cap (and thus higher level characters). The character pathfinding has remained somewhat a problem (i.e. characters still wander off during explorations of underground layers, leading to them unexpectedly running into traps or monsters), and characters move at the same (moderatley slow) rate. Perhaps this is not as much of a problem on faster computers. All in all the game sees quite fun, just like the original, but because of some minor problems (pathfinding and a couple of crashes), I give it 4 stars.
