Throne of Bhaal - Short or Decent length

bendbuddy · 06-28-2001, 03:06 PM

Hello all,

I was curious if anyone has played through Bhaal already (there are some diehards out there). Heart of Winter was soooooooo short and kind of a rip off. I'm a tad worried that Bhaal may be more of the same.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance for a reply,

- Ben

Already? I've been through TWICE

And its amazing... I tried to pace myself (Ahem).

But I played through the entire thing in about 40 hours already, plus there is heavy heavy replay value on this one. Class act all around.

I've really been pacing myself so it lasts but is a lot longer than HoW. And as for is it good.....Its f*cking awesome, worth the money, buy it now

i just beat watchers keep playing using my original save right before fighting irenicus and that alone was pretty awesome the amount of power your character builds up is sick, you will love it

The game was relatively short when compaired with Shadows of Amn. I finished it in a total of possibly a little under 30 hours. BUT the game was friggin awesome!

I'm glad it was released and the whole Bhaalspawn saga was brought to an end, although I thought that the ending could have had a little more work put into it. I'm a big fan of the still artwork as opposed to full motion, and wish they had showed character pictures or pictures depicting various scenes of the game more as they told what was to become of our beloved hero.

In all I am very satisfied with this product and, after playing through all the Baldur's Gate games, I can honestly say I have wasted too much time sitting in the chair I am right now.

With that said and done, I'm outtie!

DEFINATLY worth it. Ive been playing it for about 2 weeks now, and I love it.
Plot is well scripted, Dungeons new and fresh, items also. and ROMANCES! I'm gonna be a DADDY!!!

It tends to lean a little Powergamer way...but hell, what campaign ISNT powergaming past 20th level?

Fun part is theres more dragons and demons of Epic proportions then ever befor, and we all know how much we like to kick some dragon butt! (insert line from Minsc here
