Rush through the game or not?

Post by Baassie »

I want to play every single quest in the game, well almost. And in Chapter 2 I pretty much did that, but now I'm wondering I've it's such a good idea to try and play every single quest in my first game. A want to play an Evil Kensai/Mage next game, so I know there are going to be (a lot of) new quests, but I would hate the idea of having to play all the quests I already played once just to get a few points of experience. Don't get me wrong: I really like most quests, but let's be real, there are a lot of arrand jobs out there that are really annoying. Fortunately my party will be totally different next time around (except for Korgan and Lilarcor that is) so that'll help too. I know a lot of people have played the game twice already, having played good and evil, so could somebody tell me what to do? Try and do as much as I can the first time or leave something for the next time? Tell me! Image

It all depends on how much rplay value you want the game to have. Go through in a rush if you want to play as lots of classes.

I think I will play the game about 2 or 3 times. First time as a Monk (without patch or extra merchants), second time probably as a Kensai/Mage (lv. 12/-) with Beta patch and merchants and maybe with exp.cap remover. If there will be a third time, which I doubt at the moment I haven't got a clue what class I'm going to play really. So, I still don't know what to do?! Play around with multiple char. creation-thing to find out which class I like? I really hate Chapter I though. Any thoughts.... anyone?

The Monk is fantastic at later levels and a bit crap at the start it might be worth playing with a multi-team and importing him into your game Image
