.....so,you decided to play a real game? Heh!
I never played an RPG myself until BG1 ,i was put of with lots of demos that didn't impress. BG1 is great ,i'd recommend playing that first because once you've played BG2, BG1 will seem a little tame perhaps.
....having said all that ,i would go out right now and buy BG2 if i were you.
Althogh my Banshee doesn't do openGL/Glide or whatever,i cannot believe the quality of the software version,the lighting and spell / attack effects are great,the maps are beautifully rendered,and the characters,....you will get to know them given time.
If you've ever played an RTS or like tactical games then it's definitely for you.
