RPG gaming at its finest
User Rating: 9.8 | Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn PC
With the revamped class system, and the addition of new features including player keeps, Baldur's Gate II outshines its predecessor's amazing game play. In the sequel to the popular Baldur's Gate 1 you can import your hero from the previous game, or roll one of the fun new classes, such as the sorcer. The amount of content in the game is simply staggering, and with it being so open ended its almost hard to choose what area to explore next. The main quest itself can easily devour a significant amount of time and is highly compelling. Each of the primary classes also has a different stronghold it can acquire such as a keep for the fighter, and a thieves guild for the thief, each with its own subsequent quests. That not enough for you? You can assemble a legendary weapon or 2, or battle with a demi-lich. Baldur's Gate II has as much or as little to do as you want to, and is a must have for any serious RPG player.
