This is a really addicting game. But I have to say that the interface is just awkward as hell. The floating camera is really frustrating to wield and at times wall punching frustrating. Although there's options to lock the camera, there's just no easy way to coordinate the movements. On a poor video card, it's even worse. I'm using an nvidia with 256 mb of ram and I still experience a lot of slowdown.
The character growth can be fun but I wish we had more control over the NPCs such as being able to multi-class them or give them prestige classes at least. Also, I read that for Mask of the Betrayer only one NPC returns. It's pretty disappointing that after all the work you'd put into such a game that most of it will end up going to waste.
Hopefully, they have more add-ons for the world. I'd love to see them expand the world and provide more maps and areas to explore in the Forgotten Realms. And make them interconnected. Without that, the game still falls a bit flat from a pure role-playing perspective.
