1. Actually use wands and potions instead of hording them for "future fights" 2. Not reload any time someone dies (I don't usually like the concept of resurrections) 3. Actually finish the game before starting a new playthrough!
I solemnly swear to: Actually finish the game before starting a new playthrough!
You could rise to the challenge right now, and finish your current campaign instead of starting a new one.
As for me, I always hate the sad faces I imagine when I reject adventurers from joining my party. So my resolution for the next playthrough is to have lots of characters die so there's always space for new recruits.

Already finished my last playthrough (IWD, HoW and Trials of the Luremaster) and just installed the Baldur's Gate games and PS:T on my new computer. I never had a problem finishing IWD, it is the BG series that always gave me restartitis.
I plan on going through all 4 BG games consecutively for the first time! We'll see how that works out.
1.Play a goblin pc 2.Play either a Bard multiclass (depending on the timing of a mod update) or emulate a Shaman/Barbarian via EEKepper. 3.??? 4,profit
Well he's a kindly old man who's worth 2500 xp! Truthfully I only kill him when I play a NE mage or sorcerer. My little imp makes short work of him (mustard jelly sounds like something that would be good on toast).

pssst.... he is actually worth 2700 XP, but i wouldn't know that from personal experience....
In my next play through I solemnly swear not to kill Firebead Elvenhair or Drizzt.
What stopped me from killing them already was discovering that both became quest plot figures for quests that are far worthier than killing them. That's for EET modded games only, I have to add.
Things I've never done, but may do before long (obviously not all at once)
Play a single-class thief Learn to hide in shadows Learn to backstab Play a romance Play a sorcerer Play a single-class mage Play a shaman Play a single-class druid

My newest endeavor is with a single-class Totemic Druid. I'm vowing to finish it. I played solo up to 7th level and it was a blast. I've since added a party and suddenly she's underwhelming. I almost never need her summons anymore. I'm going to continue regardless and see if she's more fun in SoD and BG2. I also solemnly swear to actually play SoD for the 1st time with her. I always get bored with my character before I get that far due to restartitis...
Play a singleclassed, legal character all through BG1-SoD-BG2-ToB without eekeepering the character at all. Make this SC non-magic oriented character as OP as is humanly possible using only actual items available in the vanilla game. Play dwarf. As always.

Why would you play a dwarf, but restrict yourself to make it only as strong as humanly possible? Wouldn't the reason for playing a dwarf be that you could make it as strong as dwarfishly possible?

I swear to errr, uhm... well I swear to (this is embarrassing), never done this before, and it would be a weird run for sure, but, Play a paladin! (And no, not some blackguard .) There, I said it. Somebody get me a rum.

Be a REAL man - play a paladin AND romance Aerie
Hey, thats my canonical charname! Cavalier in love with that sweet avariel girl. I always played good charnames only, so my next play will be CHN Swashbuckler in love with that sweet drow girl. Just waiting for the update and all (urge to play CHG mage again....).

Heh, lawd, that would be a challenge, esp. given my idea of how my PC might drift off the chosen path, as they say.

Wizard Slayers are remarkably effective against him. He's a pretty powerful wizard but he doesn't actually know any defensive spells.
