    Who is your favourite NPC?

    Who do you think the most useful NPC is?

    Do you think BG NPC's are as good as BG 2 NPC's?

    Well, I liked the BG2 NPCs because every one had something unique. This made me like them more than BG1 NPCs in general.

    [spoilers!!!]

    Anomen had a romance.
    Aerie had a romance.
    Edwin had his amulet.
    Haer'Dalis had nice swords.
    Jaheira had a romance.
    Jan had some neat items.
    Mazzy had interesting powers.
    Minsc was insane. :) :rolleyes:
    Yoshimo had a great plotline.

    These are just a few examples, which are noticably absent in BG1.

    I still love BG1 though! :)

    My favourite ones are Coran and Xzar. Two very interesting characters. Who is the most useful: it depends on your playing style and protagonist. There are however, stronger and weaker characters.
    In BGII, the characters are most powerful, that's true. But I enjoy the NPCs from BG as well as the NpCs from SoA.

    1. Khalid, Kivan and Coran.

    2. Coran fits my playing style exceptionally well, so I guess he's my answer. I do think that there are no useless NPCs, though, it's just a matter of how you use them.

    3. The BG NPCs need more dialogue, but then, BG2 needs more NPCs. ;)
