A nice looking game with decent party interaction and somewhat unique plot....difficulty is lacking.

The Good: Very nice to look at. There are some interesting side quests, and the main plot is engaging for the most part. The evil ending is one of the best I've ever seen. The game borrows some elements from HOTU. I liked the soul quests in Thay, and I really enjoyed some of the NPCs.

The Bad: The romances left something to be desired. They could have been worked out more. The difficulty level was somewhere around eight year old child. A one armed monkey stuffed full with a six pack of Red Bulls would be able to complete this game start to finish.

Note: The spirit meter was a minor issue for me. I really didn't have any major issues with it the first time through, but it does force the pace. After the first play through, it did get to be a bit irritating as I wanted to play more casually.

Conclusion: Buy the game for the story...
