    PS:T would've outranked BGII, despite the fact that I've yet to experience it, until just recently when I found out it uses 3e (or at least 3e-like) rules. :grr:

    [​IMG] Well okay, I'm dissapointed :o

    But maybe it's because we all know that IWD 1 is the best crpg ever - so it didn't have to be on the list ??

    1) Baldurs Gate II: simply the most enjoyable experience.
    2)Knights of the Old Republic: super fun.
    3)Planescape Torment: brilliant story and setting, but confusing and eventually, I get tired of it.
    4)Baldurs Gate: the root. Great game, too.
    5)IWD2: meh. Didn't finish this one, can't mourn it.

    1. Torment - fantastic
    2. BG2 - also very good
    3. BG - less depth, but still very good.
    4. IWD2 - it uses 3e, but otherwise not much to it. Not bad, though.
    5. KotOR - it's alright, but I can't say much more than that.

    1. Planescape: Torment - Less hack and slash, more roleplaying.
    2. Baldur's Gate II - Tough choice between BG & BG2.
    3. Baldur's Gate
    4. Icewind Dale II - Not a good game but it is Infinity.
    5. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic - Odyssey... not much content either.

    1) Planescape: Torment (best GAME ever, hands down)
    2) Baldur's Gate II (Inc. of TOB) (2nd favourite game of all time)
    3) Icewind Dale II
    4) KOTOR (Great story, but the fact that it is a multi platform game RIDDLED with bugs really make me want to hate it!)
    5) Baldur's Gate (Never really got myself to finish the game, not that I hate it. But I just can't seem to go far in this game making it the weakest in the list)
