    Voodoo Extreme has posted a small interview with Black Isle's Doug Avery. The questions and answers are related to the gameplay side of Icewind Dale.

    VE: Can we expect to see any old friends from the first game?

    Doug Avery: Of course you'll be meeting up with some of your friends from IWD. Oswald Fiddlebender will be making an appearance and also playing an important role in Icewind Dale II as well as a cast of other characters. Some of them have aged or may be related to NPCs in the original game. This is not to say that there aren't any new characters to meet and interact with. There are plenty of new faces in Icewind Dale II.

    VE: You mention in the Icewind Dale II FAQ that the game is larger than the original. Give us an idea of how large it is and how long of a journey players are going to have to face (how many hours of gameplay roughly)?

    Doug Avery: Icewind Dale II has more area maps than the original. This makes for a bigger game overall. The story is also more engaging than in IWD and many quests and puzzles will be encountered along the way. The average player should find a very satisfying adventure. Someone that just bulls through it and doesn't complete any side quests or just kills everything probably won't take as much time to finish it.
