    Chris Avellone from Black Isle studios continues RPG Vault's Icewind Dale II designer diaries. This one includes a few tips for playing the game, a short emotion-spells cartoon and a few screenshots.

    Any hints for Icewind Dale II?

    Now since I designed a large chunk of the first area of the game you're going to find yourselves in, I thought I would crap out some common-sense adventuring advice and some not-so-common-sense adventuring advice once you step off the ship and run around like a jaybird along the cliffs of Targos.

    The following general advice can help you in your adventuring in Icewind Dale II. I know all you hardcore special forces RPGers have heard this junk a million times, so you can test out of this class and skip the next few paragraphs. If you need a refresher course, read on.

    Tips for the Icewind Dale II adventurer

    Wear Clothes: Do not play Icewind Dale II naked. C'mon, really. Keep your "Heart of Fury" where it belongs, no matter how hot that female halfling portrait is.

    Stay Sober: It is not funny to intoxicate your Dreadmaster, then go into multiplayer games and start casting Finger of Deaths willy-nilly. Some players get really angry about this.
