Wish there were more mods that add quests and story. While I like the games I could never finish more than half due to boredom of fight, fight, fight, rest...Fight, fight etc...
Man, IWD is a gameplay-RPG! I.e. you build a creative party, explore great locations (the exploration is God Mode, IMO) and develop your party while overcoming difficult combat. It's even better on harder difficulties where you have to be more tactical and pay closer attention.
If you want the story-heavier version of the game, play Baldur's Gate. That game has plenty of story.
I know it should be right up my alley as a long time RPG player (both tabletop and crpg). I tend to create balanced parties; fighter/paladin, ranger, cleric, rogue, wizard. What would you consider creative? How about Barbarian, Bard, paladin, sorceror, wizard?
