But there is no magic in BG2 or in any CRPG for that matter, because magic is...well magical, but RPG spells are...well statistical. Whether you bludgeon you foe to death with a 2D4 Club or blast him with a 6D6 meteor, all you've done is overwhelm your opponent with statistics. And you thought that math wasn't important in school.
And magical weapons, shmeapons. Dagger, dagger +1. Oooh, that's a great magic. Add a one to all your statistics.
There just ain't no magic in them there hills.
