    I'm not too big on the Underdark, so I voted against chapter 5. The fun of it all is double crossing both the Matron Mother and her daughter. If it weren't for that, I would really despise that chapter.

    I don't have much of a problem with Chapter 1. It's not that bad. I guess I'm not a big restarter though :p .

    Favorite chapters are probably chapters 4,8, and 9.

    Chapter 8 was the worst for me. Seemed like a nearly endless stream of tasks, particularly after speaking to the mage who sells scrolls (forgot his name; Liberous? Libelous? no matter)

    The dungeon at the begining is purely evil! :evil: But at least there is that thing you can download to skip it :D

    Irenicus' dungeon sucks, that is always the blocking dungeon in my mind when I'm thinking about playing baldurs gate 2 again.

    By the way, the underdark and the city of elves are the best chapters

    I actually find very little of the game annoying. The talks with Gaelan Bayle and the cutscene at the beginning of Iren's dungeon are the only things I find annoying.

    [​IMG] I'm afraid not enough effort was put into the creation of this poll. The options for the different chapters are incomplete.

    It's an interesting idea for a poll and I would vote if a better planned poll was posted.

    Irenicus' dungeon :eek: is the reason that I hate starting a new game of SoA. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy playing the game, but I find the prelude so slow and boring :mad: I just wish I did't have to do it.

    I realise there is a patch out there to skip the prelude, but then if I used that I feel that I'd be cheating somewhat.

    I agree

    every chapter rocks (maybe chap 1 could be shorter)

    Underdark and suldenessallar were the best :)
