This expansion, if it can be called such, is really only a few new areas with some graphical enhancements, ie 800 by 600 resolution support like Baldur's Gate 2. Its somewhere between 5-8 hours of gameplay and when you are finsihed you won't go back. Now if you haven't beaten Icewind Dale, it will add more gameplay value to it with its additions, but other than that, this game should have been a download like the one Black Isles released a few months ago.
