How are you liking BG2? It’s still one of my favourite games, even though I recognise nostalgia is a big part of it. Was one of my comfort game for years.
It’s great - I love both cRPGs and the Forgotten Realms (ever since the days of Eye of the Beholder and the gold box series). But it’s also a bit too much sometimes. You’ll be doing a quest, and you’re approached by an NPC starting a different quest while party members are nagging to do theirs first and as you’re standing there trying to decide what to do first, a group attacks you for yet another quest.
I’m exaggerating a bit, but I really had a moment where two events happened at the same time, while I was on another quest.
It can be a bit like that, for sure! It’s one of the spots where it shows its age I think, it was really the first western CRPG with these types of companion missions and I don’t think they had all the scripting and timings nailed down just yet.
Are you using any mods? And what’s your party composition?
