I never played it back in the day, DL’d it on my switch. It’s: faster moving than EQ, fantasy elements, more complex questing and world building, steep difficulty curve compared to modern games, six person party feels like alts and none of you are there. It’s so peaceful.

You should DL it, too.

A lot of the kids i went to middle school with were playing either Baldurs gate or Ultima when I introduced them to EQ. Definitely a lot of similarities between the games.

Had a good run thru recently mostly solo with a dwarf berserker (axe) inspired by the Gotrek series.

Is there a way to add custom voice for your character? Would have loved to use some Brian Blessed samples.

Fallout 1/2, Baldur's 1/2, Icewind Dale, Planescape: Torment and Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magic Obscura are all considered classics.

BG2 is quite possibly my all time favorite game. I'm still regularly replaying it.

Man I loved playing that game. So much fun.


Real fantasy nerds played Underlight in 1997 like I did when I was 7.

Been playing early access Baldur's Gate III. It isn't horrible.

BG is ab fab,

I'd be up for forming a p1999 crew for a run thru.

May even get more players than Red! ��

Consider Might and magic 6! (it's basically single player EQ classic ;p)

It has little towns, eyepatches, dungeons and skeletons.

THe tricks I learned playing EQ really did me well in a playthrough earlier during this pandemic, it as fun and worth it!
