Hey guys, I recently reinstalled BG2, started a game, got like 20 mins into it and uninstalled it because I had forgotten to add the patch.
You know it's weird but I have never installed a patch in the middle of a game, that is, by the time I read reviews and buy a game the patches are already there to download and install before I play.
So is this actually necessary? To uninstall the game deleting unpatched saves and all or does the patch simply work over the whole thing (which I imagine it does) fixing everything it needs to without any interruption to your gaming no matter how far your into it?
