Not.

[CoM_Solaufein]

Something about avariel/drow-crossbreed.

 

Eh, maybe this is the wrong topic.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Well in 3.5 you can have a half-celestial Drow

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I'll stick with my ancient AD&D rules. Some things should never happen and that's one of them.

[Judge Hades]

It never has in any of my 3e/3.5e campaigns. Allowing such things is not up to the rules of the game but up to the DM. In the d20 System the game master has the power, not the rules.

[Darque]

Only an anal DM wouldn't allow it

 

Unique characters are at the heart of roleplaying

 

Though as a killer DM I can understand why that concept might elude you Hades. "

[alanschu]

He's too busy letting them take off in spaceships so he can somehow sap their innate powers.

 

Funny how he demands that a CRPG be held accountable and anything less than 100% rule following is not acceptable.

[Darque]

That is a bit odd. "

[Jorian Drake]

Well, I had to work hard for my char over more than 10 years, and this dissapoints me to see that there are a lot of bad 'clones' of him now

 

How is it possible that i play him since 10 years?

Simply: we converted characters from AD&D to 3.0

(and then to 3.5, can't wait for 4.0 :D)

No

[Gabrielle]

Only in 3.X would you have something so obscene. 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Yeah, but a good DM would say...

 

HELL FREAKING NO!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That's what I would say than I would boot the player out of the game. Go away loser!

...hmm, not the Heart(thats the story), not the soul (thats the 'enviroment' of the game)... but it IS the spice of roleplaying ...oh ,and this spice has

in it the Char backgrounds and good RP too

I know, you'd prefer carbon copy cutouts of popular fiction.

 

[Gabrielle]

Of course. I wouldn't have it any other way.

I like to swim against the water, so he was ever good alignment (and NOT becouse of Drizzt)

I have an elven (normal one) necromancer, a Sea elven sand-raider, a Demonologyst Aasimar, a Pirate Dwarf (a dwarf and water??), a Driad Vampire (i know this is weird, but think about the life-death problems of her), an Efreet Watermage (you don't know this world, its Hungarian), ...and a very high-intelligent orcish cleric of Sune( now top THIS if you can )

 

 

EDIT: Dark Raven actually gets better with closing threads, and she is even funny

...Big G needs to watch out for his job :D

Yes.

Well you can take what are, on the surface, cardboard cutout characters and make them unique with role-playing, but you don't need to have a character no one else has, just because it's possible, to be unique.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

But if you make it unique with your roleplaying that means character is not cardboard cutout enymore .

 

Besides, in CRPGs 'uniqueness of characters' is still defined by gameworld as made by developers, since player has limited capabilities for interaction.

Where were we? I am curious to see what people liked about Baldur's Gate 2 over the first one? It would seem to be more popular over the first one, which is why I ask.

[Darque]

I kinda prefer the first one.

 

I like my games to be about me

[Lancer]

DING DING DING!!!! :D (w00t)

 

I love you Darque!

 

Finally, someone understands!

 

I have been harping on this point for years!

On one level, my preference of BG2 over BG is due alot to the improvements in gameplay and the tweaking of the infinity engine. Also the kits. The variety was nice.

 

On another, party interaction was much deeper, and after seeing what was done with that in Torment, it was a definite plus.

 

The quests were more interesting in BG2 than BG for the most part, and the story moved along at a decent pace.

 

Plus, whether it was done well or not -- those more knowledgeable than I in the FR setting could answer this -- I enjoyed the Underdark. Ever since the 1st Ed. Unearthed Arcana and Dungeoneer's Survival Guide hinted at the possibilities of adventuring in the Underdark I wanted to try it. Damn Illithids.
