I agree. Fortunately there are mods that fix them.

I'll add my vote to Brute as well. Devoted/Berserker hits hard and lands some pretty sweet crits while not giving up too much defense.

I use two-handed weapons because I like the look and feel of it, but there's no question that dual wielding is statistically superior. It doesn't really matter though, my Brute is one or two-shotting most enemies with a two-hander anyway. It was the same in Baldur's Gate 2, dual wielding far out-passed two-handed weapons, but that didn't mean two-handers aren't viable. The game's not hard so play however you want. That said nerfing dual-wielding or buffing two-handers needs to be done.

Well, that sounds like a massive oversight on their part. Bugs is one thing, but that's far worse.

Also Moon and Nature godlikes are presumably missing their second racial/effect. I don't remember a secondary racial in their descriptions. I just assumed the devs thought their racials were powerful enough to stand on their own.

I'll check it out, thanks. did you report it in the bug section?? No, because I'm not sure if it is a bug or if it's supposed to work like that.

Well, that sucks. Fire Godlike have nothing else going for them.

Specifically the burn damage aspect. I was playing around with a Fire Godlike and noticed the burn damage did not go up as I leveled up. It stayed at 2-4 base damage even at level 20. I remember it did scale with character levels in the original PoE, so what gives? Is the ability bugged or is it just supposed to be useless?

I haven't tried a Swashbuckler, but I'm playing a Brute right now and he's nuking everything. Almost every hit is a crit with the Berserker's frenzy and the Devoted's Disciplined Barrage.

Did you delete achievements?

BG2's problem was that there was no narrative urgency in Chapter 2. We're TOLD that we need to get out there and save Imoen, but in gameplay mechanics our time is unlimited. Gathering lots of gold to buy assistance to rescue her is a perfectly fine narrative hook and it even plays into CHARNAME encountering Firkraag (who offers undeniably the largest bounty for aiding him, whose behavior is quite obviously fishy... but if you're in a real hurry to raise funds to save your little sister, you wouldn't have time to run a fantasy background check on him, even if an adult red would be dumb enough to leave stuff like that in the open.) It only falls apart if the player drags their feet... and they have plenty of incentive to, with all kinds of fancy items and places to explore on offer and no clear indication that Imoen is going to die if they don't get there in X months. What if you're playing an evil character and you don't give a **** about Imoen? Also, you could justify it by saying you're gathering resources to face the Wizards, I mean they are a pretty big institution in the game. And let's be honest, you could do most of the quests within a couple of weeks in-game time if you know what you're doing. A month tops if you're doing everything. That's not an unrealistic amount of time to mount a rescue like that.

Minsc is only retarded because of his head wound, which he mentions when you meet him. That is reflected in his wis and int stats, which are illegal for a Ranger. He was presumably normal before since he had to have had better stats to become a Ranger in the first place.

- Oghren - Leliana (factoring her appearance in the subsequent games) - Morrigan (same as Leliana) - Alistair, kinda but only if you make him king. - Isabella, especially with Aveline - Aveline, especially with Isabella - Anders - Solas - Iron Bull - Vivienne - Sera - Mordin - Morinth (soft spot for her) - Tali Viviene? Morinth? Aveline, Isabela? Iron Bull. F*cking Sera? Dude wtf?

This is reverse-nostalgia goggles. The BG2 party members are iconic for a reason. Minsc became a canon D&D character for a reason. I can promise you that absolutely nobody will remember Pallegina for example. Saying MotB slaughters all IE games in the storytelling when PS:T exists is ridiculous.

That makes no difference. You play it although it is boring, because you like what it stands for. That doesn't change the fact that it comes with very limited options and repetitive gameplay. Also, you are sooo alpha. May I touch your muscles? Just once? No, it's not boring to me. I enjoy hitting things with big swords. Why is this hard to understand? Besides, this is a party based game, so you control magic users regardless of what class your playing (unless you're doing something like an all-warrior party some such).

Well, some of us like to play more alpha-masculine types that go toe to toe with monsters. I get it if you want to be at the back behind the men shooting your bow or wand or whatever tho. That's your playstyle, but you can't call another boring just because you don't like it.

I accidetentally deleted my achievements (and saves) while re-installing the game. Normally I wouldn't care but I wanted to do a playthrough with Berath's Blessings. Would anyone be kind enough to upload theirs? I had around 45 points.

The game was perfectly playable at release You cannot be serious.

No, it's not.

Because Rymrgand has 3 eyes: Nice catch.

In the same one that sees X-Com sequels getting made, whilst Command&Conquer is put on indefinite hiatus. You couldn'T see this coming in 1997 when Interplay signed Battleground Infinity Baldur's Gate, likely, nor in 2004, for that matter. Apples and oranges there, dude.

He probably rolled a Berserker. Just don't rage anywhere near him, OP.

Am I missing something? Why don't you just turn off his AI?

I might just do that. All of the companions suck aside from Eder. Then again, that was the case in PoE 1 as well.
