Camaraderie, adventure, and steel on steel. The stuff of legend! Right Boo?

No doubt, when I am dead, my urn will be engraved with some quote from these games. Maybe it will simply say "Finished Baldur's Gate" but then, I haven't actually done that yet.

I've poured thousands of hours over the last couple of decades into BG and here I am again, on another play through. Somehow I accidentally found the EET mod and was absolutely thrilled at the idea of all 4 chapters being smashed together into ONE GAME! So yeah, I'm with a canon party and doing it again. Determined... THIS TIME, to finish it.

I remember I used to spend hours upon hours, just loading character images and creating custom multiplayer parties... This time I was going to just leave it all alone - start it, finish it, canon, with a party.

I'm here today because I accidentally found a post about someone playing BG with one character and no party and I was like OMG THAT IS ONE THING I HAVEN'T TRIED!

So yeah, now I'm thinking, I'd like to start over....again. Maybe I can just start a second game to play solo WHILE I finish my canon play through. (Sadly, this would not be the first time I was playing two different play throughs at the same time.) I'm thinking if I go solo it's going to be pure evil.

Maybe it doesn't matter. Maybe what matters is that I enjoy playing. /shrug

NO! I must finish this storyline - just once!

Anyway, hello, I'm new here. (technically, I can see that I created this account some time ago...but apparently never posted or commented. I'm sure I made the account and then went right back to playing BG.)

Secret things I wish for:
Dream mod for BG: Turn BG into an anime harem game.
How have they not turned BG into a TV series or movie yet. With all the reboots and nostalgia stuff these days. That would be epic! Instead we get Superman as Geralt (with no mustache, for real).

    Welcome to the forum! Really enjoyed your post! :)

    I have played the game through, but I can fully understand why you never finished. On subsequent numerous play throughs I never seem to finish. I think it is because the beginning is the most fun. All the banter is fresh, meeting NPC's for the "first" time, and several of them flirting with you. ;) The game is chock full of content and it does take an awfully long time to finish. Especially, if you are doing all the side quests as well. I hope you make it to the end this time and wish you many hours of happy adventuring! :)
