Hey all!
I am a big fan of Betrayal at Krondor and still think it is one of the best games ever made. I am also a big fan of BG2 and think it is one of the best games ever made. One of the things that I always think about when I play BG2 is that the riddles in Spellhold (like the riddling statue with the crazy stone faces) seem VERY familar--in fact, some of them are almost identical to the word-locked chests from BAK. While this is not a bad thing, I have always wondered if some of the writers worked on BAK as well as BG2, or if the riddles were a tribute to BAK, or if is just plain coincidece (which I sort of doubt).

Has anyone thought about or have info on this.

Thanks!
