...saying that BG2 is the worst RPG you've ever played on one of the most populated gaming board at Ironworks is probably not a smart move.

That being said, I like Myst and Riven when it comes to roleplaying and puzzle solving. But one can only beat their hard against that game for so long... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I think that the Baldur's Gate series comes closest to a D&D gaming session than any other game out there.

If Betrayal at Krondor was your first RPG, no wonder you don't like BG2.

Betrayal & Return to Krondor were wonderfully rich games, with great gameplay and interaction. I still sometimes play them. But, I have to say, the BG series is my favorite group of RPGs of all time.
