Aloyse Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I've been thinking about Baldur's Gate a lot lately, I found the Throne of Bhaal Expansion recently in a local shop. Since Oblivion is crashing after about one minute of playing right now, Baldur's Gate starts to look more and more attractive. :wallbash: For me, the Baldur's Gate series was the first contact with mods, Dark Side of the Swordcoast for BG1, the Baldurdash fixes, Solaufin, Kelsey, Improved Bodhi (talk about a tough fight, especially with Solaufin in the group :whistling: ).

Monolithic0117 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Ah, Baldur's Gate. One of the pinnacles of the CRPG Golden Age. I preferred it over Diablo I and II because of the more extensive RPG elements, and it was probably the best of the bunch from its time. Fallout, Icewind Dale, Planescape Torment, Diablo, - They were all superb, but Baldur's Gate was in a league of its own. Still have my old copies of all of them, and I play them from time to time. I'm hoping Diablo III will reintroduce classic isometric CRPGs, I'm having a great bout of nostalgia right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monolithic0117 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 dont count on it. its going to be an upgrade of diablo2, just like diablo2 was an upgrade of diablo1 Judging from what I've seen so far, doesn't seem that way. Better graphics, good gameplay, intriguing features, if it is an upgrade, it's a huge one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know. It's a shame they're not going to be making a Baldur's Gate 3 anytime soon. :( I'll just have to settle with DIII. Speaking of, I'm surprised they still haven't announced a release date, even though it's probably near post-production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkf0rge Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Yeah, thats what I hate about Blizzard. Actually Diablo is the only franchise I am interested in there, but why do they have to announce their games years, and years before release. I would much prefer they shut up, until they had a reasonable time frame to release. I bet we will be waiting another 3 years till we actually get to play D3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
