Will the game finish when Sarevok dies?

I hope not. I like heading for Ulgot's Beard after Sarevok's death.

    Sarevok is the very ending of the game, just like the original BG.

    I'm not 100% that the game will ship this way, but I think it'll be possible to keep on playing, just don't expect some NPCs to make sense.

    BG:EE will still be a separate game from BG2:EE. If there will be any content to bridge the gap, we don't know yet. I advise you to finish up all your doings before heading to the final stages of the game.

    Seriously, Tanthalas? Haven't someone stated in AMA on reddit that game will end as usual?

    Indeed, it's not like BGT. You can't do the TotSC content (or much of anything else) after killing him.

    Edit: Oh, that is news. Would be a nice change.

    That's why I said I'm not sure how the game behaves after the final battle. I did CLUAConsole myself there, so that might have messed things up.

    I've been fairly disappointed when game ended after Sarevok death.

    In the AMA it was said that the game will end at the same time as the original; the moment Sarevok hits the ground.

    Letting you play afterwards would mean re-writing every NPC that comments on the coronation, iron crisis or any other thing related to the main plot (hundreds of NPC's).
    There's no time rush, so visit Ulgoth's Beard before you kill the bad guy.

    I would consider it a bug if it was possible to continue playing after Sarevok's death. That is the only designed end of Baldur's Gate 1.

    The enhanced edition is gonna attract new players though, for sure.

    He goes to live on a farm upstate! With plenty of room to run around and rabbits to chase!

    I wouldn't look for this to happen. Beamdog don't have the rights to make those sort of core changes to the game and they've previously stated the game ends (or should) at the same point, with Sarevok's death.

    No, that's not true, that's impossible!

    In Sixth Sense, Bruce Willis was dead like, the whole time. He's a ghost.

    Wait! . . .What do you mean "Sarevok dies"?!

    You've ruined it now.

    Ha :)

    One of these spoilers is bound to be a real spoiler for someone sooner or later. So stop now please.

    I get your point, and I dont totally disagree, but when the thread title says it all, its kinda late to be shouting folks down dont you think?

    The thing is, it's almost not a spoiler. I mean, right from the cutscene leaving Candlekeep (hell, maybe even right from the intro cinematic) you know that this is one mean SOB, and can probably guess you're going to end up killing him. Not to mention, a new player wouldn't even know who Sarevok is, and by the point in the game they find that out, they know enough to figure out he's probably gonna be the final boss.

    Yeah, really the only thing it spoils is that there isn't a secret twist ending where Sarevok turns out to be the good guy after all.

    Kind of like if you started out Star Wars by saying to everybody, "Don't worry, the Death Star gets blown up." I don't think anyone would be really surprised. ;)
