    What was your least favorite moment, battle, area, or whatever in the game?

    Mine would definately have to be fell wood, it was so annoying! Ice temple was all that great to me cause it was kinda big and lots of backtracking. And I don't like ice :)

    Fell Wood, Even with dropped items, woodland lore, marked maps, I have a hard time. Second place, the time loop. Just didn't care for it.

    Am I the only one who loves the game all the way through. Sure Fell wood is irritating, but I still like it beacause its got this certain atmosphere about it. Dragons Eye then. The only thing I hate about that is.... nothing.

    The Ice palace.

    I also wish it was a little more like Baldur's Gate with the charecter development.

    Didn't like that cave with all the hook horrors dropping from the ceiling. Slaughtered my mages, and greatly annoyed me. Bah.

    That would be a toss-up between the Battle Squares in the ice temple, and the 8 chambers or challenges or whatever they were called, in the Black Raven Monastery.

    Probably the Ice Temple, it was really boring for me. The wood wasn't so trouble as I had a ranger in my party.

    Well, my least favorite moment had to do with my idiocy, not with the game. I fireballed myself in the Ice Temple. Bye-bye bard, wizard, and cleric in one fell swoop.

    The Fell Wood did annoy me until I started to use Wilderness Lore. Then I was happy because that skill had a use other than descriptive.

    I like the game the whole way through even Dragon's Eye and the Fell WOod. However I do have one least favourite spot. The end battle with Isair and Madae. I don't hate the battle or the location (Severed Hand very cool especially the link from IWD1) but i hate the fact that the game ends afterwards. I think this game is far too short(bit like the first IWD but IWD1 wasnt wuite as short) and so far there's no expansion

    Definitely that obnoxious time loop! It was cool the first time, but after that, it is just plain tedious!

    The Ice temple was the most annoying by far.

    Hook horror caves, definitely. All those beasties, along with that matriarch or whoever she is.... gave me a headache, that did. I don't even want to imagine what it'll be like in HOF!

    [​IMG] I can't stand Dragon's Eye. I haven't posted for at least 6 months, dropped the game last February and just picked it up again tonight. I'm in Dragon's Eye-and its just to complicated and messy.

    The monastery trials. I am tempted to kill off the monks themselves than go through those challenges again :p .

    Battle Squares is just an option so doesn't count. Everything else can be dealt with and it is nice to make the most of party members abilities.
