OK, but too pricey

Nice Addon, especially voice acting of companions. Finally they have some "interiors". Not much, but compared to BG1 it's a lot. Especially love Baeloth short dialogues (with Minsc) and his comments. Story-wise and Role Playing: level of Icewind Dale and ToB. It lacks freedom, but is more than enough to push the game forward, but it's just too small. BTW: Only crash I had was when I made Alt-Tab - game jsut couldn't return to it's normal state. So no crashes, because BG2 has sometimes same issues with Alt+Tab. Just Engine problem. "cdtweaks" mods work like charm. Problems: - Ending has plot holes - you are unable to use _important_ information you learned in both "meeting in woods", last meeting with the Hooded Man in the castle and final talks in the city (so no spoilers). - One companion is built during the game to trust, and finally he/she in fact betrays you - Normal Price is a joke for that short game with that obsolete graphics.

Decent revival

It's been a little bit since I played this, but something possessed me to leave a review when I saw it while browsing Gog's catalogue. I thought it was fine, overall. The main plot is very silly, and the new characters are pretty shallow. Where the writing improves is in its expansion of existing characters and themes. Companions like Khalid and Jaheira are given more depth than they had in BG1, and the dream sequences were surprisingly well written, being on par with Black Isle's writing for most of them. Combat encounters were reasonably challenging and well designed. Despite being an expansion of BG1, it feels more like a lead-in to BG2. Originally, the jump from 1 to 2 was quite jarring. Without spoiling anything, Siege of Dragonspear does an adequate job of bridging the gap and setting up important characters and themes that were explored in 2 but not in 1. The length is what will probably let you down, being about 30 hours on average. I think they probably could've succeeded a lot more if this had been shorter, more focused and kept the tone of BG1 before developing into the tone BG2 had. As it is, the characters are too talkative and the story is very tropey and lacks self-awareness and nuance. If it seems like I'm being hard on the game for giving it 4 stars, I'll admit that my opinion is closer to 3.5, but that's not an option, so I went with 4, since there's a lot of 1 star reviews that I don't think were posted as good faith critiques. Such is life when there's a trans character for over a minute of screentime. My opinion of that character is the same as my opinion for all of Beamdog's original characters; shallow and perfunctory to the story. That said, her being trans doesn't magically make her worse than everyone else. The tl;dr is that the writing ranges from kinda bad to surprisingly good, the combat portions are solid, and it does a decent job of leading into BG2, but it's longer than it needs to be.

Viel besser als gedacht

Nach all der Kritik die dieses Addon eingefahren hat, habe ich ihm dennoch eine Chance gegeben und wollte es zumindest mal anspielen. Nun sitze ich vor dem Abspann und muss sagen, dass ich die Kritik zwar in Teilen nachvollziehen kann, dass ich aber auch 20 - 25 Std. sehr gut unterhalten wurde. Die Geschichte rund um den Helden von Baldurs Tor und den Kreuzzug von Caelar Argent ist spannend und gut geschrieben und die Schauplätze sind kleiner, aber recht abwechslungsreich. Auch bei den neuen Begleitern, die durch die Erweiterung dazu kommen, sind mit Corwin und v.a. der Goblinschamanin M'Khiin zwei lohnenwerte Charaktere dabei, die ich nicht mehr missen möchte. Alles in allem eine schöne und lohnenswerte Erweiterung, welche die Geschichte zwischen Teil 1 und 2 gut weiter erzählt.

Bugder's Bug: Bug of Bugbug

This game is exceptionally buggy. Extraordinarily buggy. Cannot leave the first dungeon. Imoen does not appear on either level. AVOID!

You've got to be kidding me

$20 "on sale" for a DLC missionpack with bad reviews from crashes and content? I paid less for the entirety of Skyrim.
