Well...
I don't think I've ever finished the game with any class other than Ranger, Paladin or Thief and never any alignment other than chaotic good (except when Paladin). I guess i'd like to think of myself as playing fair. No 'loophoole' tatics for me thankyou. I try to get the most out of my party both in their interactions and their abilities. Breezing through the enemies and fights in BG2 really is missing much of the point of playin IMO. There is no satisfaction. However, one of the reasons WHY i play almost exclusive rangers (NO kit) is because of the high minimum attribute scores they must have...which basically means i don't have to roll for hours before i get good stats

. And thieves? It fits my character (not that i shoplift or anything like that, really!). Paladins cos they're just more 'rounded' than a basic fighter - and it's more of a challege to keep that rep up...Yeah, i roleplay. But i maximise the roleplaying.
There is no problem with either way - as long as you feel you have great fun, it's good
