Originally posted by NiceWorg: 1. In BG1 you practically had to cover every area of the map and I found that enjoyable. There is no fog in BG2, as far as I know. Is this a good or a bad thing? A: There is fog, but not in the City Area. It's better - one of the things I disliked about BG1 was finding you way around in the city. In BG2 all the important locations are marked on the map. 2. How is the difficulty level of #2 like compared to #1? A: More difficult. No more gibberlings & xvarts here! Or I should say, more challenging, given that you start off as a level 7 character (or thereabouts) rather than a total greenhorn in BG1. 3. Only 16 NPC´s?? How do you deal with that? A: 16 is plenty enough. They are also more colourful than in BG1. They have their own personality & some of them are quite fun to have in the party (read Minnsc & Jan). 4. Does the lack of worthy 3D card cause major slide shows in larger battles? A: It might in some of the larger battles where lots of spell animations are taking place. You could always adjust the graphics settings though.
