    Wait you have played BG2 and it is not your favorite game? DOUBLE BLASHEMY!! ;)

    Unless of course you prefer more text in which case Plansescape Torment might take that top spot...

    But I've already said BG2 IS my favorite. Or does it matter between BG2 & BG2EE? If it does then it's got to be BG2EE due to the added kits :)

    I don't normally count remakes as being different unless it is significant. However if I was to do that here BG2 does have a nice advantage what with its greater number mods that work which includes a lot more kits than the BG2EE gets (and most are better since the BG2EE kits are mostly kind of meh to me though I do like that it allows for monk and sorc kits).

    :D

    These forums keep telling me my post must be at least 3 letters long yet I put all of the above in?

    ---------- Added 8 hours, 23 minutes and 23 seconds later... ----------

    Who puts their dead at the beginning of the ramp into the de'Arnise Hold? Who's bright idea was that? Lol.

    ---------- Added 1 hours, 57 minutes and 32 seconds later... ----------

    Imoen says "There was fighting... My cell was damaged. I don't know if I could get out again. The pain in my head is getting worse."
    There is no cell to be found anywhere beyond the room you, minsc & Jaheira start in. Lol. I think Imoen had a part in watching me for Irenicus :p

    The bodies at the start of the Arnise keep were put there by the trolls as a warning to outsiders to not mess with them. Putting up staked soldiers actually occurred in history to cause fear in enemy forces.

    There are extra cells in the initial room from the openeing cut scene. One of those could of easily been hers.

    I've always thought that the game doesn't show you Imoen's cell simply because it's irrelevant. It's like asking where the kitchens/restrooms are in Irenicus' Dungeon, since obviously there are humanoid creatures running about.
    You can't visit them since they're not important.

    She came from the door on the left. :)

    The graves aren't there until after you clean the keep. There are bodies on stakes though :)
    At least they KINDA look like bodies. Either that or they are armor hanging from the stakes.

    ---------- Added 0 hours, 3 minutes and 3 seconds later... ----------

    You go by toilets if you go down the pathways to the room with the otyugh. Kinda odd place for them too. And there is NO DOOR so anyone can come by and see you.

    That doesn't mean she didn't originally come from one of the cells when she first escaped(or was let out... who knows...). It only shows she came from the door on the left at that moment.

    If she was in a cell then why would she be in that room instead of letting me out? :p

    Yes the trolls put those bodies outside of the keep to scare the remaining troops in the palisade. Then after saving the keep they put the bodies into the mass graves found outside.

    Why would they put them right outside? I would think it would scare off anyone wanting to go in and visit. I guess it will keep the tax man/woman out. :p

    I guess she went in there to get some lock picks to let you out. But why didn't she grab the key to Jaheira's cell :rolleyes:
