I've been thinking about buying Baldur's Gate or Baldur's Gate 2 for quite awhile now and I would like some opinions as to how good this game is and what is it about? Is it linear or non-linear? Any feedback welcome. Thanks in advance!

It is a bad game, starts in a boring prison and gets worse. You may enjoy it for the first five min but then it is bad. Dont bother getting it.

My opinion only.

Some idiots? Who are they? I'll tell 'em to go screw off.

Jafin don't listen to him. The game is a really good buy. I played BG1 21 times and BG2 8 times and something different happens everytime.

They are linear, part of a trilogy, BG, BGII, and TOB to be out this summer. Simply put, they are the best RPG games I've everplayed. Money well spent. Hours of enjoyment. Check out the TeamBG website, the have lots of tools etc to enhance these infinity engine games. www.teambg.com

It's non-linear then? The storyline I mean.
