This is what made the encounter challenging. This is what made you think out of the box. Had you been able to do "realistic" stuff you could spied through window and sent five fireballs in simultaneously reducing the encounter to ashes.
Stop fucking about, dear sirs.
Yes, and I often did in ToEE. But there are still plenty of encounters in both BG and ToEE where you can't do it. And I'm glad. It means I can rinse-repeat tactics all the time.
Also, your comparison is a little off in the sense that I'd take ToEE's turn-based glory over the semi-what-the-hell in BG any day. A game as vast and different and BG combined with ToEE's rule-set and combat? HAEVAN.
Then the metagamer in you will realize that you can still do the Hommlet quests, and you'll force yourself to go through all that agony simply because they're there and must be done.
The temple faction-interplay is actually pretty well done, of course you miss out on it entirely if you don't put on the robes (or a paladin who will fall if you do evil quests).Yup, it abandons that quest design, and replaces it with no quest design at all
2. Eh? I could have sworn there was a mouse speed setting in options, is that what you mean?
It's cool but it's too short (3 quests per any faction and you almost join evil forces).The temple faction-interplay is actually pretty well done, of course you miss out on it entirely if you don't put on the robes (or a paladin who will fall if you do evil quests).

Some stuff was fan-VOed in Co8, but that shouldn't be in a non-NC version...*shrug*Regarding ToEE, still trying to complete my first run, Co8 6.1 without NC. Party of six at level 7 so far.
I spent some time today and trudged through Dungeon Level 2, and half of 3, and have a few questions/thoughts:
- Voice acting ranges from shit to passable.
There are few truly interesting encounters in the game, but you still have 2-3 before you.- Seems there isn't much variety of stuff to kill so far (fucking bugbears), very few caster enemies.
What? Do you want us to play the game for you? Do whatever you like.- Should I murder all the high priests? Or just leave them be and continue down to level 4?
Yes and no. You are either very near the end or still have a few hours to go. Depends on your choices...- Am I near the end yet?
What Grunker means by "thinking out of the box" is hitting save/load until all enemies are dead and your guys aren't.
Flanking the enemy by using stealthy rogues, puting ranged units and mages on overwatch positions to cover your party, manoeuvering between enemy ranks is that casual "thinking in the box" that all next-gen popamole gamers love so much.
I see what you are trying to imply here, old cock, but I had no lawful good people in my party and used the robes to run around. Yet like half of the mobs of the fucking bugbears would still attack me on sight for some reason. Must be some of that lovely ToEE bugginess I've heard so much about.
No, I mean that mouse feels like it's dragging an elephant on ice. It's horrible, and made me want stop playing because it's a chore to fucking put the cursor over anything.
If you go to the options menu and change the scroll speed from 5 to 0, and then back up to 4, your mouse should behave normally. It sounds silly, but it really works.
Try casting 2 or 3 Rays of Enfeeblement on the Ogre.except the ogre
