Be wary of the newly available areas. Some evil things are lurking!

What's interesting to do in this game? Can you buy slaves? Can you own houses? Is there cannibalism? Is there thievery? Is there necromancy? Is there hooking your neighbor's wife on heroin and pimping her out to pay for her bad life choices?

I believe you can dry and crush herbs.
I did notice the mention of drug use in the form of potions. Wonder what's the extent of the system. I have zero interest in this game's plot or combat, but would settle for setting up shop as a drug dealer.

Shit golems honestly seems like a terrifying enemy to face. I mean, then seems resistant vs piercing, slashing, blunt, if you throw fire on then, they will become a deadly "shit fog" spreading disease, if you try electrify then too, freezing then seems the better strategy. But only by seeing then, enemies will lose morale and can catch disease even if they kill then.

Terrible smell makes party members roll vs vomiting, possibly losing a turn. You can also have an enemy mage throwing dehydrating spells which will go nicely with losing water during constant vomits during the fight. It's not shit golem fist you should fear, it's midbattle dehydration death.
And thus a new RPG spell system was born.

Interesting. When I played I could only cast tier 4 spells. I"m curious about the new spells.; did they fixed wintermage? It was pure trash back when I played.

Are they very open with their development process, is there still a significant art pass that will be done on - for example - the map above? That ice dome bisecting the ground and house looks straight outta blender, there's no interface where the dissimilar materials meet.

It's a true test of an individual's ability to identify the actual beauty of the IE-games (especially Icewind Dale) if they believe that image to be of even remotely comparable quality
