What Now?

02-22-2001, 05:48 PM

I`ve completed BG2 twice and before having another go, I`d like to try something else. I got Wizards and Warriors but considered it a total waste of time. Compaared to BG2, the graphics were crap. I`m informed that this is because it doesn`t support my graphics card and the universal alternative on the game is rubbish.
I don`t understand how a game can be produced that has problems with popular graphics cards. Anyway, it`s gone back to the shop now and I`ll avoid that software producer in the future.
That said, I`m now looking for something on the same lines as BG2 and BG1 and would be grateful for some ideas.
Cheers

Try Icewind Dale if you haven't already. IMHO not as good as BGII, but there is soon to be an add on (Heart of Winter) which I was reliably informed by my games store will be available (at least in Britain) on 15 March. This revelation ruined my day 'cos I thought it was released yesterday.
It is more linear than BGI & II with no NPCs, you create your whole party.
Oh, and most of it takes place underground in, what are they called?, oh yeah, dungeons.
Still good fun though.
