Game News Baldur's Gate - Ten Years After

[oldschool]

The hell? Was that article about Baldur's Gate or Dragon Age?

There is like a DA plug every 3 fucking lines.

Yeah, I can't believe none of them mentioned how it was all Spiritual Successor and stuff.

Ah, Spelljammer. It was like a geek orgy.

Which should be avoided at all costs.

Those BG days were awesome. I spent hundreds of hours on BG1-2 to the end of ToB.

Then 8 years later hundreds of hours again replaying with mods like BGT, SoS, ToD and others.

Now I am playing something called the Big World Project, which will take years to finish if I ever do.

I love this game

I hope Dragon Age can come close to this, we shall see.

I hope Dragon Age can come close to this, we shall see.

"We're the guys who worked on Baldur's gate, this game is a lot like Baldur's gate, if you liked Baldur's gate you'll like this game. It's basically the next-gen version of Baldur's Gate, did I mention that this game is for Baldur's Gate fans?"

Its not in first person .
Oblivion rules , they will have to start again .

That explains why Imoen's lines were so out-of-place at times.

A late addition? Oh please - the whole storyline is a lame Gaider's copy of Star Wars Ep 4-6.

I mean the evil Sarevok wearing mask (starring Darth Wader) kills your mentor Gorion (starring Obi-Wan) and then you are being that some-village-guy (starring Luke Skywalker) go on a journey in order to save the world and you also learn that OMG Imoen (starring Leia) is in fact your sister, you are a mighty half-god(Jedi) and of course the talent of Bioware does not end there - it ends with "Luke I'm your brother" (instead of father because we are oh so original)

Even if I were, I would never admit to being even 1/10th that knowledgeable of the SW's story line. My issue, not yours.

i bought my copy when it came out and liked then i accidentally came here and you told me it sucked damn you...

 

[Andhaira]

lol yeah I wish he had NOT divulged that secret about Imoen. Now I will never be able to take her into my party....

Oh I guess I will take her. I am playing neutral good this time with an elven fighter mage!

 

[Luzur]

i liked BG 1-2 and the Icewind Dales games, and as long as I like it im gonna play it regardless of others opinions on the game.

That explains why Imoen's lines were so out-of-place at times.

yeah i was suspecting her of taking strong drugs behind my back sometimes when she began her bantering.

Ha, that happens to me all the time.

I decide to play a game that's universally praised everywhere else on the net, even by other so-called 'hardcore' RPG sites - then I come here to see what the codex thinks and my hopes are dashed

I finally realised the codex really is just a bunch of angry cunts who find fault in anything that's not Fallout, Arcarnum or (sometimes) PS:T. Of course I include myself in that group, because I too often hate games that get rave reviews everywhere. This is a good thing btw, someone's gotta play devil's advocate to bring some ballance.

Honestly, you'd never play anything other than the devine trilogy if just go by the opinions of the codex. Go play BG and form your own opinion.

they have faults, the rest of those games just makes up for those.

Dark Sun is better than BG.
