Applauding creativity

I'd just like to take a minute out of my intensive playing to applaude the creativity I've been seeing in Book II. I am extremely impressed with the extensive story-telling that goes well beyond what we saw in Book I. The skill books are well fleshed out with detailed and sometimes humourous stories, the character dialogue is intriguing and the quests are proving to be twisted and fun.
The weather effects combined with the music give a whole new quality to my emotional enjoyment. I was caught in a bad thunderstorm in the middle of the night with my torch blowing out repeatedly, not able to see where I was going. I was being assaulted by dragonels and couldn't find my way out of the situation. It was realistic enough for me to feel afraid. Wow! That was truly unexpected.
Overall, I am truly impressed!
