Does this game get any better?

[Alenkii]

I bought this game on it's release day, and I'm finally getting around to playing it. So far I've spent about 10 hours wandering around the starter dungeon (btw I hate starter dungeons, there such a complete bore) and I'm getting extremly bored of the game, so far it seems like nothing more then hack 'n slash. I ended up killing Imoen, her whining about the dungeon every two to three mins got old real fast, and dumped her from my party.

Anyways, does this game offer any role playing or is it just another dialbo clone with a storyline?

[img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] I will sit here stunned for a while then say YES! I personally didnt like Irenicus' dungeon either... and it DOES get MUCH better... so have fun! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yes and yes!!! It get's a lot better and there is much roleplaying to be had. But I'm afraid some of the NPCs are forever annoying! Some are very funny though, so take your pick!

10 hours in Irenicus's dungeon!?!?!?!? No wonder you are bored, I'd say 30 mins at the most to do it. So that 10 hours combined with the fact that the dungeon is the most boring part in the game i can imagine how bored you are lol, but give it a chance it does get better.

It picks up about 30 nanoseconds after getting out of that joint. If your stuck at a specific part we can help, but its mostly combat in there so it guess its just perserverance.

Believe me, once you get out of Irenicus' Dungeon, you're gonna start experience the best RPG ever! It's so much better then Diablo. [img]smile.gif[/img]
And I do pity you, wandering around in Irenicus' Dungeon in 10 hours. And feel free asking us for help getting out. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'v been a little bored to, in the begining, I tink the game should strt in the city, many friends of mine give up playing it because of that but it realy worth to keep playing till you get out, BGII is my favorit game.

Yes Irenicus' dungeon is the crappiest level, but once you get out of that dungeon you'll begin to experience some of the great things that BG2 has to offer. And if you are having trouble with that stage, it wont hurt to read a walkthrough. And ask the people here in the forum if you would like some *expert* advice.

Thanks for all the 'welcome to the boards'. This has got to be one of the more friendlier boards I've been on.

Right now I have no idea why I'm having problems getting out of this dungeon. Myabe it's the way I'm role playing my character, I'm RPing like a hard headed moron that won't listen to anyone and refuses help from anyone to solve his problems. So far my biggest complaint about this game, and all DnD games, is your stuck to role playing your aliment to pick from the start. Is this game like PS:T were your aliment changes depending on what you do in the game?

From what I know, your alignment won't change, but you will piss off your party members if you behave in certain ways. And you can't please them all. Different things that make some NPC's happy will piss off others.

If you killed Imoen, maybe you should try reloading and not killing her. She's rather vital to the plotline, and maybe this is what's causing your inability to get out of Irenicus's dungeon.

Good luck.
