Got best RPG ever?
From the time when you start in the cage and first meet minsc and boo you will love this game. Nothing provides the sence of achievement from a single player game like BGII. There is so much content that you will be occupied for hours and hours on end.
Unlike alot of other fantasy RPGs you lead a party of 6 people so you have the diversity of playing all archtypes. I normally play as a fighter DPS class. In BGII you can play yourself (as a fighter) have a paladin with heavy armour to tank and DPS a mage to DPS Cleric to heal etc etc. In conclusion this game is one of a kind. If you havent plaid it and dont want to because the graphics doesnt compare to what is available now, dont worry, because the gameplay is far far better then anything you will every play again.
