So I gotta know if this is happening to anyone else... LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 30/04/2011 01:22:24 AM
Whenever the Quote of the Moment is a voice-over line from Baldur's Gate (eg. "You have been waylaid by enemies and must defend yourself";) do you hear it in your mind with perfect eerily accurate clarity? It's not only happening with the voice-over lines. Pretty much every BG quote...Did I plainly just play this game WAY TOO MUCH??

AM I GOING MAD?!?!?!?! Is Boo the miniature giant space hamster living in my head? AHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!

I pretty much just hear... MightyYT - 30/04/2011 07:57:10 AM 577 Views
you must gather your party before venturing forth Foxhead - 30/04/2011 10:16:34 AM 546 Views
oh god....I hope that narrator makes lots of money. He DESERVES it LadyLorraine - 30/04/2011 10:01:01 PM 535 Views
This behaviour must not continue. Feel the burning stare of my HAMSTER and change your ways! beetnemesis - 30/04/2011 11:43:38 PM 611 Views
the best. Particularly since follow-ups having come CLOSE :rollups: LadyLorraine - 01/05/2011 12:25:01 AM 512 Views

"Build more burrows." *NM* Zalis - 30/04/2011 11:28:59 PM 285 Views
To me, yes, but then I'm currently playing it, so not as odd. Legolas - 01/05/2011 12:25:17 AM 524 Views
live by the sword live a good long time! Foxhead - 01/05/2011 01:30:21 AM 641 Views
Xzar!!! LadyLorraine - 01/05/2011 04:21:18 AM 538 Views
I've never played the first one - sounds like there are some good lines there too. *NM* Legolas - 01/05/2011 09:44:48 PM 256 Views
...how could you play the follow-ups without playing the first one? LadyLorraine - 02/05/2011 01:18:12 AM 532 Views
I never played BG1 and still REALLY enjoyed BG2. The story seemed a clean enough break to "get it." Zalis - 02/05/2011 01:14:23 PM 482 Views
i really recommend going back and playing BG1 then LadyLorraine - 02/05/2011 04:19:21 PM 564 Views
Yeah, exactly... I don't really feel the loss. Legolas - 02/05/2011 10:50:04 PM 622 Views
BG1>BG2>tob Foxhead - 03/05/2011 09:37:31 AM 587 Views
You have more characters, but they don't participate as much. Fanatic-Templar - 03/05/2011 11:36:28 PM 541 Views
I certainly agree that SoA > ToB. Legolas - 04/05/2011 09:45:15 PM 529 Views
to put it simply, you're wrong about the gameplay. LadyLorraine - 03/05/2011 01:42:10 PM 572 Views
hi 5* *NM* Foxhead - 03/05/2011 02:16:17 PM 358 Views
BG was AD&D 2.0 and BGII was 2.5, right? *NM* Zalis - 03/05/2011 02:23:06 PM 267 Views
I believe so. Regardless, it doesn't really change much. LadyLorraine - 03/05/2011 04:19:46 PM 510 Views
It might clarify things a bit if I say I've never played tabletop RPGs. Legolas - 03/05/2011 10:21:34 PM 637 Views
Baldur's Gate requires level grinding though. Fanatic-Templar - 03/05/2011 11:47:30 PM 770 Views
you don't grind Foxhead - 04/05/2011 08:36:12 AM 615 Views
Depends on your perspective I guess. Fanatic-Templar - 04/05/2011 06:49:52 PM 576 Views

Re: patience is rewarded Fanatic-Templar - 05/05/2011 07:31:01 PM 477 Views
so does every game, honestly. LIFE is level grinding. LadyLorraine - 04/05/2011 10:15:26 AM 583 Views
That's not true, and you know it's not true - you've talked about playing games that don't have it lord-of-shadow - 04/05/2011 01:18:51 PM 516 Views
by my definition of grinding, yes, games like BG don't have it. LadyLorraine - 04/05/2011 05:41:59 PM 577 Views
No. Specifically, I was commenting on Baldur's Gate compared to Shadows of Amn. Fanatic-Templar - 04/05/2011 07:04:55 PM 617 Views
I wasn't aware you were specifically comaring BG to SoA. LadyLorraine - 04/05/2011 07:43:32 PM 505 Views
Ah, sorry then. Yes, it was in reply to the improvements of BG2 to BG1. Fanatic-Templar - 05/05/2011 12:45:55 AM 567 Views

Apparently the archaeologist thing even happens twice, then... Legolas - 05/05/2011 08:45:59 PM 532 Views
I do have the impression that SoA (and certainly ToB) swings a bit the other way regarding mages. Legolas - 04/05/2011 09:40:12 PM 643 Views
Yes. It's not the fault of the games though, they're using D&D rules, so it comes with the territory Fanatic-Templar - 05/05/2011 12:25:21 AM 613 Views
ah, you found the game to be a grind? Foxhead - 05/05/2011 09:08:27 AM 668 Views
Diablo 1 is vastly superior to Diablo 2. Just saying. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 03/05/2011 02:22:44 PM 374 Views
As I said I haven't played the former, but I really rather doubt it. *NM* Legolas - 03/05/2011 10:22:07 PM 258 Views
Diablo 1 wins in the story and atmosphere department. lord-of-shadow - 03/05/2011 10:37:30 PM 550 Views
If you thought they both had a terrible gameplay... Legolas - 04/05/2011 09:41:46 PM 540 Views
Because they're addicting and I'm exaggerating. I have completed both. lord-of-shadow - 04/05/2011 10:04:40 PM 526 Views
