Yeah, they look pretty rough. I did play several hours of Neverwinter Nights back in the day and uh ... Temple of Elemental Evil. I'll give it a shot but I have low expectations.
I have finished a few, but, yeah, only a very few. And I was blown away by BG2 back in the day, adored it, but never finished because it demands attention and devotion. Same with both PoE. But I will second Wasteland 3 recommendation. It very addictive and has flat-out amazing satirical writing.
I always forget about that, but I will try that as well one of these days.
I've seen them drop to $20 for both and I still was like ... eh, maybe not.
Dunno why so many have it out for Pillars of Eternity. I played Baldur's Gate way back and enjoyed them generally all infinity engine games. Replayed BG 1 and 2 just a few months ago to completion and loved them. Tried Pillars for the first time last month and I loved that too! Finished it out a week or two ago. Playing the sequel now love them both. As to which to play first maybe BG because it's a little more dated but if you like them it shouldn't be a problem.
Man I wish we had a dislike button
They're not for everyone.
This isn't Diablo.
You don't have to really, they are connected but not ridiculously so. I'd still play the first personally because if feels like a more gradual introduction to how things work. Many would disagree and say to just jump into BG II but I personally like the first one better. They are both good.
Boulder's?Mom, can we have Boulder's Gate 3?
We have Boulder's Gate at home.
Boulder's Gate at home:
then every post on this site would have at least one dislike. People are generally much quicker to dislike shit than to like shit. I think this was also the basic reasoning when implementing the "like" system was first discussed on here.
