Long live H22A1!!!!!

how about this? play a party of your own, forget about NPCs first time

human monk
half-orc barbarian
elf ranger/cleric
human assasin dual to fighter later
human kensai dual to mage later
human inquister

or try this:

elf archer
human socerer
halfling fighter/thief
half-orc fighter/cleric
human shapshifter dual to fighter later
dwarven berserker

heh, this almost covers a lot of new features. have fun.

Dude i totally feel you man. before i found out about this board i used a Monk and played the game without regrets or anything. Now it seems like i have to check in everytime i make i move in the game so that i won't make any mistakes.

But i like this board and it's not so bad. It adds to the replay value of the game as Accord said.

Its ok, we all have gone through character overload. I myself have changed my character over 20 times. They all are good, you just need to ignore everyone else and pick a class that fits you. Just stick with what you like.

You think you got it bad? Here I am reading all the posts, read the guides, drooling over BG2 and how it's great, and I've not touched it beyond installing it. http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...s/rolleyes.gif

Just trying to complete my current game (Jagged Alliance 2, 3rd time at it).

You can do what I do - I play through with a different character everytime. Sometimes I multi with a couple of NPCs and sometimes just NPCs backing me up... I always have a blast and changing the NPCs changes the quests.

Hehe.

I must be weird then... I started my character as a mistake.

I've never played a D&D game before, so I didn't realize how involved the whole process was...
So in the character creation screen, I didn't actually realize that there were scroll menus on the sides, and I pumped all my points into the first four categories (pick pockets, find traps, etc.) and completely ignored the other ones that were "hidden" until about 3 levels into the game...

That's OK though, because it all worked out in the end and he *ahem* uhhhh... I mean I became pretty damn cool.

there are other ones, DAMN!

Just try and control yourself Dragon. I went through that stage too. I was worse. I've finished the game and then thought "This party isn't good enough lets try again" and promptly deleted my save game. So now I've finished the game four times and have nothing to show for it. If you really can't decide on one character then start several games and see which character you like the best. Or vow to yourself that you won't come back to this board until you've finished the game. That will make you hurry.
