Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I first rented Baldur's Gate 1, I stayed up all night with my sister and we destroyed the game, loving every second of it.We beat all the settings, the gauntlet and extreme mode.After that, we were left to wait, wondering if a Baldur's Gate 2 would be coming.Our wait is now over.And it was well worth it.
Gameplay hasn't been changed much from the first one.Its still the go kill every one set up.This time, however, there is a vast quantity of new spells and feats to mess around with.Kromlech (the dwarven fighter from number 1) had, like, two feats he could use.Niether were very effective.On the other hand, Dorn, the massive barbarian, has just as many fighting feats as Ysuarn, the elven necromancer, has spells.Very cool.
The story line by itself is only fair.Its when you know what happened in number one can you fully realize and appreciate what's going on.There is finally some depth in character for our heros, all of them prompting NPC's to say different things if different people talk to them.
The biggest addition to number two is the weapons creation system.The possibilaties are endless.Add six rune stones, four aquamarine stones and four jet rocks and you get the
+5 Mighty Cleaving Axe of Cold Fire.Insanely cool (or hot?).
Yes, there are now five playable characters.A barbarian, necromancer, cleric, rogue and monk.They all have special abilities only they can get, meaning you have to play the game five times through to get full experience.And, if you have a friend to play with, you can fool around with different combinations of characters that will make you adapt to eachothers style of fighting.
The artificial intelligence is way better than it used to be.The archers and spear throwers will actually go to a strategic location, such as raised ground or behind a partially broken wall.Some enemies will attack you in certain formations, making it harder for you to maunuver.There are some old enemies, but alot more new ones.
If you liked the first Baldur's Gate, the second is the same thing, only its on fire going 100 miles per hour through a cave with all manner of monsters jumping out at you.This game is perfect for any fan of the series or hack and slash games in general.
