[QUOTE="Tal Rasha, post: 3637357, member: 46213"] I tip my hat to the people who beat Drizzt in Baldur's Gate 1. It's good to see what determination can accomplish. DM-Rocco, Icewind Dale I (because that is the only one I have played of the two) might have been more enjoyable if played over a longer period. Personally, I like to take the time to read every book in every library and go through all conversations twice :). True, the story in the first Icewind Dale wasn't much, but the artwork was worthy of attention, and the music was positively excellent (Jeremy Soule). Plus, there was a commercial expansion, Heart of Winter, which I don't really recall much about, and this more enjoyable free add-on to the expansion ( :D ) called Trials of the Luremaster. This free expansion has proven one of the more challenging CRPGs I have played. Every 10 minutes you have to fight a new party of high-level, well prepared, nasty-tempered enemies. If you have the time, disposition and can get your hands on the add-ons, you should try them. I think I vaguely remember the room with the tiles and the lightning. The tiles themselves were yellow, weren't they? Apart from this clue, I remember the graphics being rather pixelated (i.e., low resolution), and I think it was too pixelated for Baldur's Gate II. I would have to vote for BG1. Please excuse me if I am talking nonsense :) . On a side note, I really wish I had a bit more free time and a bit less distaste towards the Star Wars setting. I've really been hearing good things about KotoR and KotoR II. [/QUOTE]
