    Indeed. I actually thought it was better than the main game.

    [​IMG] Maybe not better, but indeed a very good extension. Absolutely worth to play.

    TotSC does round out BG rather well. The new area are well done and the fleshing out of spells and items make the entire game more enjoyable.

    I agree, but after playing ToB for the little bit I could at least, I'm wishing they had made it revolve around the main character's story somehow instead of just making 3 fantastic and large side quests with it. It couldn't have been that hard to work in some sort of plot for the character in there somewhere.

    It is a great expansion. Not all of the sub-plots need to revolve around the main charaacter, many do not. It would be unrealistic to have everything revolve around the main character, after all it is a big world. If you do not have it, get it.

    I just personally think it would have been nice if they would have continued his story somehow with TotSC. I know it doesn't have to, as most side quests don't. But it would have been nice to make the game part of a main quest of some sort, IMO.

    Heh, the reason I did like TotSC more was that it *didn't* revolve around the main character :p
