    [​IMG] Hi all!
    After a long time I finally finished BG2 and although I do not have a lot of time I want to start a new game....I love my lazy sundays, sleeping and playing computer all day. Until now I finished BG1 (great), BG2 (great, too) and Icewind Dale (quite cool).

    Which game would you suggest? To make it possible for you to help me I ll write what I liked/disliked most about the games I already played

    BG:
    -some really useless areas with the same monsters all the time

    +lots of NPCs, cool story


    BG2:
    - nothing

    +really cool long lasting quests.


    IWD: -hardly long quests, just fighting all the time, poor story

    +nice graphics +create all characters

    Hope you can help me
    Lowbo

    Congrats! I WAS going to get Icewind Dale and Heart of Winter, but now I have to buy SoA again because of my idiot friend(I ought to ring his neck :evil: ). Maybe I'll get both if I'm lucky. So is Icewind Dale any fun? I played BG1 and I'm still playing it, it's a great game, although you start to think less of it after you play BG2.TotSC isn't very fun, but it fixes a lot of bugs and raises the experience cap a little. Luckily, BG1 came with TotSC so I wasn't jipped. I actually couldn't even install it(lack of hard drive space) until I got a new computer. BG2 just rules. So many character classes, you'll probably never play them all(unless you're like me :)). Actually I've only beaten BG2 twice, but I've played many characters. I usually don't have the patience to stick with one character for long. I'm can't wait to play my MC F/M in BG2. I also want to try an Avenger Druid.

    IWD is basically a "Fighting Edition" of BG1.
    It doesn't really have many sub quests, maybe 4 or 5, but the general story was quite good, I found the final enemy kinda sappy though. His identity I mean, they shoulda left more hints throughout te game. Heart of winter is cool too, lots of new stuff that make the thief and druid invaluable. Is Trials of the Luremaster any good?
