1) BGI will be just as fun roleplaying wise and adventure wise as BGII. Are you going to be as powerful? NO. Are you going to have to kill tons of small creatures and get your butt kicked a couple of times and reload? YES. Is the Gameing aspect going to be as high powered NO. You won't be as high level, but the game will still be what you put into it. If you are going for the roleplaying of a starting first level pc, it is fun to watch them grow quickly or be killed.
2) Me personally, I would do BGI first. It depends. Are you bored with this story and are looking for something similar but a new storyline? (and yes, I always answer a question with a question) Both are good. In BGI, you start off with you. IN IWD, you start with 6 first level pcs. Different games, both fun and worthwhile.
3) I haven't played HOW yet, so I obstain. Is it out in the states? Anyone?
4) LIFE? This is my life.
5) I think BGI is about the same size, more time devoited to outdoors adventuring and fetch and carry. IWD is more linear and quicker to beat IMHO.
Play em all. I have a life outside of this forum and this game. Sometimes I post alot, sometimes I play alot, sometimes I get crazy and play some REAL DnD paper and pencils ect. Sometimes I get REALLY CRAZY and visit my family and girlfriend, change clothes, shower up, etc. jk. Just have fun with them, and keep posting here.
