Planetscape:Torment. Michael Send a noteboard - 23/09/2011 09:24:24 AM
Planetscape is my favorite of the bunch. It's quite different to the others, being based off the idea that you are an immortal who will always resurrect after Death. Some of the puzzles in fact, require you to die to progress - I remember a classic where you spend ages trying to get into an area, only to find that if you die the right way, henchmen come out, pick up your body and carry you to where you want to be, only to have you resurrect again.

It's widely hailed as the best of that generation of RPGs and still makes best game ever lists.

The Icewind games are ok, but not as good as Baldur's gate, in my opinion. I don't know what the other ones are like, but at $34 for the whole nine games, I shall soon be finding out...

I can't even... need the ability to delete failurific posts, *NM* Rowland - 24/09/2011 09:21:07 AM 385 Views
I got BG1 and PT... BG1 is surprisingly hard, or maybe that's just me. Legolas - 24/09/2011 02:57:53 PM 686 Views
BG1 can be pretty tricky LadyLorraine - 24/09/2011 03:27:13 PM 675 Views
Yeah. There aren't high-level abilities, you have less HP, less magic equipment... *NM* beetnemesis - 24/09/2011 08:47:19 PM 348 Views
Not a fan of actually having to roll HP dice, either... that just forces you to save and reload. *NM* Legolas - 24/09/2011 09:35:52 PM 344 Views
You can do multi-player offline if you do not wish to wait for NPCs. Joel - 07/10/2011 05:49:11 PM 777 Views
Oh, I did have enough NPCs, they were just all level 1 was what I meant. Legolas - 07/10/2011 05:57:09 PM 707 Views
The big thing that annoyed me was attacks/round and dual wield on rangers. Joel - 07/10/2011 06:19:23 PM 803 Views

Haha I sort of want to buy them all again *NM* beetnemesis - 23/09/2011 03:57:30 PM 361 Views

I got Planescape since I've never played, and been told I should. Kotagg - 24/09/2011 01:30:54 AM 675 Views
honestly, I wasn't that enthralled with Planescape LadyLorraine - 24/09/2011 01:46:10 AM 674 Views
Interesting. I'm a fan more of classic high fantasy like Baldur's Gate, but... Kotagg - 25/09/2011 12:33:24 AM 704 Views
it really is good. I totally do not know why I don't love it. *NM* LadyLorraine - 25/09/2011 03:58:56 AM 345 Views
