Couln't say it better myself.
[QUOTE=DeathLich]I have enjoyed this game alot since buying it. Even though it is a little glitchy, but the patches fixed alot of the glitches. Its fun, but kinda long on your first team. After that though it moves pretty smothly.[/QUOTE]
The title of this post says it all. There are some points that I feel I must stress, Volk. Please read carefully.
1) What can you enjoy better than crafting a magical weapon that (for how high you can go in ToEE) can really whoop some tail with afterwards?
Note: You're best to do all your crafting, or as much as possible after your crafting characters (which would, in that case, be the Cleric and Wizard or Sorcerer that you have in your party) reach maximum level, which is level 10.
2) The possibilities with character classes (namely how each class may work off of each other), skills, feats, and equipment make the gameplay something close to endless.
3) The party alignment and opening scene (which varies by the party's alignment) also make for some variations in gameplay. For instance, only Lawful Good, Neutral Good, or Lawful Neutral parties can have Paladins in them, but each party would vary in how they start out in the game. Still, that's the most I'll reveal about that, since I'd hate to spoil what else there is to that. Speaking of party, you can only have 5 characters to begin with, and 3 other party members, such as NPCs or summoned creatures.
4) NPCs are not as you hope for if you're looking for something like the Baldur's Gate games. Most of them have something to bring to the fold, such as unique personal equipment or even some sort of minor special ability. Also, NPCs loot some things, often a pinch of money or an item or two, so choose your followers VERY wisely. As much as many players may feel provoke to harshly remove such NPCs (particularly by killing them), most will depart if you ask them to.
Overall, it's a pretty darn good game, but it's not Baldur's Gate 2. But if you ask me, I've become more fond of playing this than BG2.
