Actually we surely won't have hack & slash replaced by storyline in future crpgs, because it simply does not sell. Planescape was a fantastic attempt to bring more storyline & less combat into crpgs. It was far from having BG's success...

And such a shame!!!
Something I missed in BG2 was the ability to be able to initiate dialouges with your fellow adventurers as you could in PLaneScpae. The only thing you could actually talk with was a crazy sword and a familiar. No wonder the child of Bhaal feels a bit out in the cold :S

Planescape had alot of dialouges and intricate problemsolving and unique solutions, but at the cost of a pretty linear story. The second time around was not so fun, but give it a rest for a year and it is fun again.
