But yes, i agree on the Fade... Btw: Can you solve the "Templars Nightmare" (the one were you don't get a new form) whiteout the spirit form? I was stuck in there for a pretty long time having all the other forms until i just went on to another dream and everything became easy. | ||

You have to go through a Spirit Door to finish it, so you need Spirit Form. | ||

Why bother getting exp and leveling when you can beat the final boss with an iron dagger (maybe not that drastic, but you get the idea). I guess the dumb console kiddies can't handle being manhandled by a dragon (as you would in BG2 frequently), so they had to make sure you had a chance even if you were absolutely terrible. | ||

What are the chances I would be able to run this game decently at the lowest settings? You probably won't even at lowest settings, you are below the minimum requirements. | ||

It is also highly power gaming oriented. However gameplay and fights are GREAT. I honestly think that the quality of scenarios in the BG serie is BG1> BG2 > ToB ( who cares about ToSC it has none lol ). I really enjoyed how you had to find why you are hunted by bounty hunters in BG1, also the revelation about your identity + all the Iron Throne machinations are great. BG2 offers some better banters, decent class quests and way more interesting fights gameplay wise but its scenario isn't as interesting. It is basicly runing after Irenicus ( Sarevok was a way better badass boss btw ). edit: hunted by hunters lol | ||

Some had nothing in them... Some had enemys... Some had damn hard enemies... Some had decent loot whiteout a fight at all. Thats the only thing i feel is really lacking, if a house is not needed for a quest, you can't get in. The funny thing is that BG1 had even more zone to explore. One of my problems with BG2 is that it was too "urban". No more countryside zones  | ||

BG2 had plenty of that .Countryside zones with a level 1-3 group + this music was definitly one of the thing i enjoyed the most in BG1. ( and getting raped by wolves / ogres / Flind / Xvarts :D ) The lack of level scaling made your first run of the game REALLY hard and awesome because you could wander into "death zones" ( remember the maps with sirens / vampire wolves / basilics ? :p ). You could really feel the weakness of a beginner group. Also some encounters were really awesome ( Poe in Flammevin, Albert+Ruffie, Larry etc .. ) | ||

In BG1 when you get to actual Baldur's Gate, the city is like what 6-7 areas, and then you have houses and sewers and temples in every area, it actually feels like a real medieval city. It felt so much more like a free world, and modern rpgs have very few areas where you can actually explore. Instead it feels very MMO-ized, NPCs have quest marks over their heads, they are all bunched up together in one location and most of the buildings are just for show. Golden age of RPG is gone | ||

I mean, here I get to the capital market and it has like 4 houses I can enter, 2 of which are shops (lol) and 3 quest back alleys and 1 tavern/brothel.

My best memories of ToB were playing it on LAN with my brother, only 2 party members each, and no pausingXD. | ||

Am I really the only one having problem with constant crashes here? It seems so unlikely... Where did you buy the game from? Have you patched it to version 1.01? | ||

Damnit!!!!! Don't make him the king. Make him sleep with Morrigan and have her demon baby. That'll at least let you keep the romance till the end. Remember, this is a dark fantasy. Where else would make you actually look at your ROMANCE TARGET make love to another female while in the same room? It's kinda sad though that female characters don't get a "perfect happy love" ending unlike male characters. | ||
