Icewind Dale II - PC - Prologue (Blind, Hard Difficulty)
2The full prologue for Icewind Dale 2 on PC (GOG version) played blind on hard difficulty with a custom party. I'd played all the IE games before this but had never played a 3E game before. When just the intro prologue is 8 hours long you know you're in for a good time.
This playthrough is a raw, warts n all blind capture, with little editing for "entertainment" sake, so it includes all my inventory management, buying, selling, levelling, travelling to and fro etc. Basically all the stuff people tend to chop out in these types of playthroughs because they fear it's too boring, I've left all that in. This is just meant to be a raw archive of my playthrough so it is what it is. I have spliced footage at save points if I had to reload though, which I usually only do on a party wipe or if a crucial character died before I got the raise dead ability, obviously there will be splices between different gaming sessions too. Because I'm editing the footage losslessly to preserve quality I can only splice on keyframes, which in my editor equates to about every four seconds, so if you're wondering why the splicing feels loose at times that's why.
I had some technical problems whilst capturing this, it would only record in Windows Game DVR and sometimes it would capture with distorted or "skipping" sound. Whenever this happens I've mixed in parts of the game soundtrack over the top as it makes the bad sound more tolerable. It doesn't happen often though and I didn't want to scrap this 100 hour playthrough because of it.
