  • Baldur’s Gate 2: Just Beat Throne of Bhaal for the First Time

    People might wonder, “Why did it take you so long to beat a game that’s over 10 years old?” My reply is that I just have been distracted and never really put the time and commitment into going through the entire game. I’ve defeated Shadows of Amn a few times but for some reason Throne…

  • Baldur’s Gate 2: Dual Class and Multi-Class Modification Wishes

    After the latest play through of Baldur’s Gate 2 and from writing my previous article on classes and party combinations, one thing I’ve come to realize is that you’re still somewhat limited on a few possibilities.

While there are other issues in having such large parties, the thing about games like Baldur’s Gate is the fun factor in…

  • Baldur’s Gate 2: Class/Party Composition Re-Roll Thoughts

    I just busted out my Baldur’s Gate 2 disc (although my reader isn’t working for some reason) as I have been thinking quite a bit about this subject lately. Nothing excites me more than character creation in an RPG. Baldur’s Gate 2 satisfies this craving by allowing one to create up to 6 different characters…
