youre also given 36 quick commands to work with i have 12 set asside to command my henchman. its fast control and you dont have to talk to them.but said earlier this was ment to be a multiplayer game and between load screens its states that the games difficulty was based on you and 1 henchman not 5. the game is also based on 3rd edition rules, but then we have beat that one over plenty of times. maybe people arent reading it. instead of getting upset with how the game is played out get upset at the rules that original d&d creators have set. bioware is just staying current with the ad&d rules.if you dont agree with it fine we all have our opinions and your intitled to them. play it if you wantor dont its your desision. but to try it under a whole new set of rules and restrictions is what makes this game so new and unique.

when i first got this game i did not like it you can probablly find the post where i even said that. i didnt like the camera views. i didnt like the char setup either. but i gave the game more than an hour of play time and i started enjoying it.it was something new to work with you had to earn your way up in the game.thats what i liked about the game.new and challenging.

i just am misguided that someone would get such high expectations for a game and then shoot it down because of miniscule flaws. i can say that their where far more char portraits here then in BG2. and i hear people say that there isnt. voices sound just as gay as the original BG series so i could careless.im just thrilled that for each voice there is a different script for each. then the henchman, people cant be that reliant on 5 extra char to help you out.i hear alot about there not being certain char kits in here, maybe they where to powerful or something and they wanted to balance the game out.

the only gripe i have about the game now is the online play. for those of us who want to play the game and enjoy it. the experience is ruined by people who cheat.what is the point of playing the game if your just going to cheat?
