Question Mark

Is it like, almost another game? Or is it just some extra dungeons?

It's almost another game, my friend. Get it. There is one big ass dungeon`, and plus the regular plot that brings the story to a final end. I recommend downloading the Ascension and Redemption mods for it as well.

You guys are welcome to post descriptions of ToB here, as long as you don't put any game spoilers in. I can understand it might be difficult for Bredalbane to visit the ToB forum as there would be a number of spoilers there.

To answer your question Bredalbane, ToB is a full-blown expansion which carries on the storyline and allows your characters to progress to a quite explosive conclusion. It also has a MASSIVE additional dungeon (or I should really say dungeons) which is an excellent experience in itself. It's well worth getting - you'll get at least an extra 40+ hours with it.

Thanks for the responses. When I bought BG2 it came with the ToB expansion embedded, but you don't have to play it yet. If you play BG2 you have "Watcher's Keep" dungeon but nothing else(the XP cap is removed however). What I want to do is, finish SoA, THEN do the ToB expansion. I am assuming that, since ToB is already embedded, that there will be no cumbersome "importing" of your SoA character. Is this true?

That's right...it's pretty seamless. No importing or any of that stuff. [img]smile.gif[/img]
