  2. How many time have I beat BG2? I'd have to say 1/2 of the game.

    not enough, not enough times.... the game tells me so, it's my only friend..

    Seriously though, three times, i play IWD and PST between the BG series. And there's just so many ways i want to play through it, sometimes it does seem that the game's the only friend i have lol.

    [​IMG] too many times, 8-10 times I think, can't remember really, don't really care either.

    Once you can remember the location of every important item in the game, it loses its spice. Kinda sad though :(

    10 times, two times of it solo. :) It was a challenge, but I was privileged with being able to play for at least 4 hours a day so I got that far.

    What's worse is that when you begin a game, you do everything like you had done it in routine...
    In time, I became so annoyed with Irenicus' dungeon that... I began to lose my real interest in the game. But I'm still 98.9% interested, so that wouldn't be a problem

    Only finished it once... I've played the game 3/4 through a dozen times, though. I seems that once I reach a certain point in the game, I want to try a different character, and then I start a new game...

    [​IMG] Once with my BG1 char "Maertyn". I tried to roleplay.
    Once with my beloved sorceress!
    Now my monk/barbarian/archer combo rules the land (multiplayer)...
    And for the future: There's a solo F/M/T.


    New cool topic icons!!

    [​IMG] Half of the way with a kensai-mage (they actually get killed really easily). All the way with a sorceress. 3/4ths of the way with an archer. Now I'm gonna play my new BG1 with a multiclass ranger/cleric and import them to BG2 and ToB.

    I tend to stop in the middle and restart too.... and I know Irenicus's dungeon by heart! AGH!! The other places are more fun, since you tend to forget about the monsters and traps....

    And... oh yeah! I LOVE these icons!!!
