Baldur's Gate website

You don't seem to fully understand what you're heading towards... Once you've played Baldur's Gate and its sequel (especially its sequel), there's no coming back. Not only you will lose all your friends, fail your grades, gain twenty pounds and turn into an albino, but your life (or what will be left of it) will be one never ending wait for an hypothetical HD remake (or an even more hypothetical third opus). Every other game you will play will seem hollow and childish in comparison. You will shudder when you'll hear words like "Square Enix", "Bethesda" or "BioWare" associated with the words "role playing game". And you will end up cursing the date of December 8, 2003 and the name of Interplay for the rest of your days. I would pity your soon-to-be-cursed soul if it wasn't for the fact that you, lucky bastard, are able to discover the two greatest video games of all time, where I can only install them for the billionth time (which I'm actually doing, thank you Asterix for reopening the wound ) and wander around the streets of Athkatla like a lost soul...

 

Ordered and shipped. My corruption awaits. :/

 

I honestly envy you. Keep us posted when you start the experience ;)

 

Will do! :)

 

Yeah give us your impressions! haha i love hearing about people playing it for the first time and what they think of events that occur etc haha

 

Estimated shipping is about 3-5 days so I'll get back to you all soon as I can. That's a very good deal, in my opinion.

 

Should have got it off GamersGate a few days back! D:
It was ~$3, and download, so no shipping time!

 

I don't really use GamersGate, although I should. I got Desura just because of Project Zomboid. I'm more of a Steam kind of person.

Okay, I got the game in today, and I haven't much time to play it yet. My initial thought was the soundtrack. My God, on BG II, it was amazing. The graphics, honestly, look a bit similar to Diablo (I'm not sure which was out first). I'm still tweaking setting and what not to get the game running smoothly (my computer isn't that good). That Planescape Torment game that came with it... scares me. I don't think I'm going to play that one. Anyways, very impressed so far and I haven't even scratched the surface. I've to get out of that modern-day RPG style and into the oldies. Stuff works a lot different, especially in Baldur I.
