I would like to see that all bugs in the next game (nwn)are fixed before it is shipped out. Yes , it may mean a delay in playing the game but it will mean a more enjoyable experience ....an experience that isn't marred by crashes or recurring faults. And no-one should have to go through the familiar ...

Or send her out to do battle by herself. That way you get rid of her plus you maybe kill a few enemies as well.

My team :

me as specialist mage

minsc
jaheira - but halfway through the game I got rid of her ( with a magic missile ! ) and took on viconia .
Jan
Imoen
anomen - the best for me.

I really enjoyed playing the mage. weak in the beginning but very powerful near the end.

One aspect of this game that I really enjoyed was the puzzle and the moral dilemnabbb that is presented to you on occasion.
Of course , fighting /slashing and sneak backstabs will always play a fundamental role in these types of games but I would like to see more such puzzles and conundrums . And ...

I finished the baldurs gate 2 without once using the backstab feature and regarding the large number of posts on bthe issue , I think I missed out . Which brings me onto the next improvement ... the tutorial at the start. it should of course be optional for all those people who are familiar with the ...

Just a few thoughts... It was mentioned that enemy AI should be markedly improved. but that it couldnt yet be done ...too difficult. The truth is that it can be programmed without too much difficulty. on many games but developers choose not to do so simply because you will never beat the enemy ! or ...

Another gripe to add :

Switching from melee weapons to ranged ones on a team wide basis was a pain . Having to go through each person's inventory was laborious and frustrating ( at least for me !). An improvement perhaps ? to have one button which when pressed enabled all ( or specified only ...

For me , the biggest thing was firstly, how dumb my npcs were ...I tell them to move to one place and some of them would decide to take a more scenic route to get there. Unfortunately , for them , that route just happened to have a big bad guy there and that was the end of my npc.

I didn't like ...

What improvements would you like to see in any future game?

Hi all,

I've been reading these pages for a while now and the same questions get repeated so I thought about asking something different....

What annoyed you about Baldur' s Gate 2 ? Was there anything or was this game perfect without a single blemish? and ...

Yeah , the demon knights were a huge surprise ! I only had anomen fighting since he was immune to level drain but within a minute he was down to 20 hit points and I knew I was in trouble.

Of course ...it depends on your style and strategy employed during the fight. For instance sending in your entire team to face vampires isn't the best strategy in dealing with these level drainers. You have to adapt to each fight noting the weaknesses of both your enemy and also that of your team.

I put my game on the easy setting. And still I enjoyed every moment of the game .There is a fine line between enjoyment and frustration and you just have to find your balance.

I really hope you know what you're doing when reformatting your computer. If you have never done it before let me tell you that it is a real big pain .... make sure you have boot disc made before hand.

I dont know what you did but I think you removing the bg folder could have had something to do with it. I'm not an expert on computers but perhaps by removing the folder manually you also removed something else essential to the running of this ( or any game). my suggestion is to try installing a ...
