    3. Icewind Dale and Heart of Winter
    4. Neverwinter Nights
    5. Baldur's Gate II

    I suppose Icewind Dale II will go in as number 3.

    1. Icewind Dale + HOW + TOLM :D
    2. Baldurs Gate II (Don't have ToB yet.) :)
    3. Baldurs Gate + ToSC :)

    Icewind Dale II will make the list once purchased. I don't have Neverwinter Nights yet either. :(
    I have Planescape Torment, but for what I have played so far (which is not much I confess), this game stinks. :mad: Thus it is not on the list.

    Thanks Z. I'll have to stick with it and let it open up. (I'm in the Hive right now, doing quests.)

    Kerap, the beggining is boring, buttrust me, once you get out of the mortuary, it al opens up into one of the greatest games of all time.

    3) NWN
    4) BG1 + TotSC
    5) ID

    Torment is great, so is BG2. Neverwinter is fine, but not as great I had hoped. Maybe if a few issues are resolved, such as it sucking online, it will get a better rank.

    Scratch that, I doubt it could ever bump off BG2, let alone Torment. :love:

    1. Torment - unbeatable in story, atmosphere, design, NPC and PC development...
    2. BG1 -> ToB, the saga in whole
    3. Dark Sun 2, a shiny gem from the distant past
    ...
    50. IWD (+HoW), which is nice, but lacks replayability and quite a bit of roleplaying feel
    ...
    99. Neverwinter Nights, which I find almost as annoying as the morning breath of a fine lass after a night well-spent... *sigh* WHY, oh WHY did they release the game with such an irritatingly shallow singleplay?

    Relic... You moron...

    How much of PS:T did you actually play? Let me guess, you started playing your way through the mortuary and gave up... If not, still, you're a jackass...

    Pool of Radiance is a bug infested peice of ****, why the hell you place it above Torment I don't know, I hope you were having a moment of temporary insanity.

    Could you not handle the dialogue? Could you not handle the fact that it wasn't a "Go here, kill this, go here, bring me this, now go kill the big boss..." type of game? Or was the supreme character interaction too much for you to grasp?

    Oh no, now I get it, the supreme spell effects and lack of console and uber weapons put you of!

    /me facepalms!

    How did I miss it, the fact that this game has a storyline is too much for you to handle!

    *****!

    1) Planescape: Torment~!
    2) Baldur's Gate 2 + ToB
    3) Baldur's Gate (minus TotSC...I thought it sucked :p )
    4) Neverwinter Nights

    350239924780238182821025) Pool of Radiance

    I never played the Icewind Dale series, despite being a Drizzt freak. Everyone told me it was really hack-and-slash, and I'm really not a fan of that, especially with 2E rules :(

    1.) IWD1 + HOW + TOL
    2.) BG1 + TOSC
    3.) PS:T (didn't finish it, so go ahed and insult me.)
    4.) BG2 + TOB

    I anticipate IWD2 bumping PS:T. Probably not BG1. These rankings, BTW, are very close. I never played POR, I just couldn't see spending any money or time on such a poor product. I can't play NWN because my sound card isn't good enough. Any patch coming to fix that, or do I really need a new card?

    [Post the details on your sound card in the NWN forum and we'll see.] -Tal
