Another deviation from the world of Baldur's Gate is that it is a lot easier to play evil characters in this game. "In Baldur's Gate, the more evil you became, the more you would be accosted by the Flaming Fist, making it practically impossible to do some things in the game," Cain said. "Here, playing an evil party will make some things easier, or allow you to bypass some difficult situations altogether. I really pity anyone who tries to write a walkthrough for this because there are just so many different ways to play the game."​
