Which....I...didn't...like. It is possible for people to have differing opinions from you, you know. If I don't like the things that MAKE a game, why in the Nine Circles of Hell would I like it?
bg is one of the very few series of crpg i return to
Right, so keep playing them. I'm not telling you not to. How is this pertinent at all?
AC lower when armor on? Boooohooooooo! :'(
I already said it was an exaggeration, which means it's half-sarcastic. I also didn't include that my introduction to D&D was actually the ToEE computer game. AC worked in the 'normal' way I'm used to in that. I also said I don't play D&D, so 2.5 vs 3.5 (which is apparently when they overhauled things) really means nothing to me. I really can't believe how hung up on one simple fact you are.
Minsc warcrying? If anything else, that is one of the most iconic things in BG.
How is it stupid to bitch about something that irritated the absolute living Hell out of me? Sadly, it wasn't the worst of them. The Evil mage you get before him screams, "QUIT TOUCHING ME!!!!" like a 5 year old when you click him. Khalid screams when you click him. It's not a singular incident. It's a lot of little things that irked the shit out of me.
I obviously had Minsc and a full 6-man party, which basically means the Mage he's looking to protect. I did quite a few side zones and quests. I hit level 3 with quite a few characters due to constant respawning enemies (which also bothered the shit out of me), and as far as I'm concerned, played enough to form the opinion that it isn't for me.
When it comes to RPGs, I find the most fun in the starting aspect of them - not having money, gear, or supplies and needing to scrape by. I also love the idea of building my characters and watching them become powerful. BG managed to somehow make it not fun for me. I can't believe I have to spell all of this out in every single word lest I get attacked by a frothing mob of half-literate dipshits incapable of processing a contrarian thought.
im not turning into a melodrama queen because of it
THAT wasn't melodramatic? I would really hate to see you when you do get sand in your vagina.
