SPOILER

I just finished the game with a sorcerer. I must say, I have never played such a game where I have been so emotional in fighting THE villain. My goal has always been, in games, to be fantastic at it, kick some ass, and win because that's what the final objective is. But in THIS, I wanted Irenicus DEAD. I was actually enfuriated and wanted nothing more than to destroy him. I was a little disappointed in the nill-satisfaction I was given when I beat him. His death was not glorified enough. He should have been more shocked... should have been more horrified. I must say... I've never wanted to actually KILL THE DAMNED guy at the end for any other purpose than just to win. In this, I actually felt something personal. I'm still pissed off.

I don't know why but I actually felt a little sorry for both him and Bohdi....I must say I wasn't too fond of Ellisme....It was a bit shady, I mean she only exiled him beacause he wanted to become a god.....IS that SOOOOOOO wrong http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif...
Nah I agree, the game does stir some emotions...Like the Yoshimo but ;( poor guy!
OH and ANY bit of dialoge with minsc http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Nah!! Smilies are good!! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

He deserves to die many painful deaths!! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...s/biglaugh.gif

------------------
Long live H22A1!!!!!

a odd thing about one of minsc dialougs is the one where he says he wished he could take boo too Rasheema er,,i forget how to spell it anyway..he says somthing about a snow covered bow and then says "That would look odd let me tell you" when he said that he seemed more....real somehow to me

Quote:

and the dialogue where he sees some squirrels and want to give them some nuts...that is my favourite Minsc quote ever http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

hahaha i loved that part where he asks "should you have a wooden leg and a talking parrot" hahahaaahhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/noncgi/smiles/485.gif

I wish he was harder to kill!
I used three spells:
breach
true sight
breach

...boring!!!!!! Yawnn..........
I hope they make the demons harder...no one in my party got heart in the final battle!

It's very well-built up, isn't it? The end confrontation, I mean. You are presented with that simple ultimatum - The One Who Wins, Lives. No saving the world, no rescuing anyone - it's just straight law-of-the-jungle. Your NPCs, demonstrating exceptional loyalty in following you to Hell - start their cries of defiance, almost like a Pep-talk; especially Minsc's final cry of "SWORD, MEET EVIL!!!" (yes, we all like the guy) And then that's it - your blood's so UP you want a piece of Irenicus right there and then.
As for Irenicus' reaction to his death, well... he is cold. And almost devoid of any feeling. I wonder how he doesn't understand he's going to lose; he tries to keep you locked up in Athkatla, and fails. He leaves you to die in Spellhold, but you don't. He thinks Bodhi can keep the magic lamp safe, and she doesn't. He thinks he can beat you at the Tree of Life, and he dies. By this point, I'm quite impressed with his refusal to admit to the facts.
But I DID enjoy the final scene, with the mad mage screaming his frustration to the pits of Hell before going under. "Take THAT, you BAR STEWARD!" I cried, or something like that.

Wow, did I feel good at the end - and hungry for more when I saw the Bhaalcultists plot my death. Oooo.
