I pretty much kicked everyone out because I couldn't s t a n d the NPCs (unlike the BG and Planescape games, where I often have trouble picking favorites) and brought on a group of created adventurers, which led for some very quiet dungeons. And when the meat and potatoes of an Infinity Engine RPG don't inspire me, there's not much point in improving my numbers until I can overcome the enemy's numbers. I do wish they'd do Enhanced Editions of Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale II, and Neverwinter Nights (and its expansions), myself.
