SpiritWarrior, my first is "what, I have to start at level 1 again?". I thought expansion meant continue on where you left off like a movie sequel.?
I like the opening linear dialog with fellow students and the difficulty of picking it up from their aspect. Totally stingy on gold and items to cash in on until you have covered readily available tundra. Talking kobolts out of situations was humiliating but I have loved it all so far ;) - More later.

No, the OC is designed for the levelling up of a level 1 char. You can certainly import a 7th level char, for example but most of the XP will be nothing to you and you'll miss that huge amount of pride one takes from nurturing a novice into a hero. You know what I mean ;) .

Well my first try the game wouldn't load so I retured it but after reading all these possitive remarks I guess I'll just have to give it another try.Hope it was just a bad disc or something..
