well he may have include the expansion of baldur's gate 1 to at least match the quests in baldurs2 at the very least.but sure since u can level up easily in the game u can complete it without resorting to those unimportant sidequest not relevant to the your cause.
But compared to baldurs gate1, quests are almost always connected to the main plot and best experience is earned by doing this important quest. So every chapter of the game in baldurs gate one doesnt look empty. Unlike in Baldurs 2 when you go to spellhold u are stock in that area going to underdark for sometime and it may get you bored sometime. Imagine skipping 3 chapters when u enter spellhold; and it may also be a disaster going o chapter 4 right away being unaware that you will be stuck there.Unlike in baldurs one that before a chapter closes your sure that ur ready to face the next chapter. and there is a sense of achievement in every chapter u have at least accomplished one thing for yourself not for anyone else but FOR YOURSELF. should you also stuck in 4 onwards youll lose some time related quest, like loosing ur thieves guild. arrgg unless jan jensen was able to tame a griffin to fly you back to the mainland
