Hmmm, While I was looking trough the topic "Coolest NPC", I noticed most people are so full of Minsc... Dont get me wrong, I'm one of his biggest fans (when I grow up, I want to be a Krazy Minsk too). In BG1 I clicked on his picture for like 40.000 times just 2 hear "Safety comes in numbers... and I am 2 or 3 at least" or "When the going gets though, some one hold my rodent"... Man, I know them all (same with Khalid ("Th-thh-thh-thats all Folks" is briliant"), Dynaheir, and Jaheira-tha-Bitch). But my point is...
I think, like lotsa people, that Minsc is funny... And so did the people at Black Isle, probarly. I think the Rendez-Vous with Minsc was kool. To hear him shout battle cries... Wow !!! And the way he tried to bring comfort 2 Jaheira, by offering her fuzzy Boo... aah, so cute.
But after a while I really had it... Black Isle tried to make him WAY more funnier and Crazier than he really is. Just so they could say "You'll meet old friends, like Good Old Funny Minsc" so people will think "Oooh, Good Old Funny Minsc, I have 2 buy it !!!"
After a While he even started to anoy me. I even thought "Was that supposed 2 be funny ?? I didnt laugh"
Well, Its hard to express my feelings about this topic in English.
It just comes down to that I think Baldurs Gate 2 was kinda made with Big Blinking $$$-signs in the eyes. I just think Baldurs Gate 1 had much more charisma then BG2... I almost get Nostalgic...
