I have the tendency to ramble, so I'll do my best to keep this one short.

I'm debating buying BG1 and starting a character in it, and going all the way through BG2... no expansion packs tho. Just 1-2 plain and minimally modded. My big question tho is: Is it really worth it? From what I understand, any items that you carry over from BG1 get lost anyway once you start BG2. And as much as I love the fun factor of games, it just seems like it's hardly worth putting so much work into a character and not being able to use them in the state I worked to get them to. Would I be better off just getting ToB or another game that I can take my BG2 character into? I just hate putting so much work into characters and then having them stripped...

just reminds me too much of my DM in the P&P days
