Greay addition to the story.
A wonderful extension to the story. BeamDog did a great job with the engine and at times it felt more like a modern RPG. The storytelling was top notch with a lot of lines voiced over. Played it on Linux and it never crashed once. I can recommend the DragonspearUI mod which changes the UI.

I really enjoyed the game minus bugs.
I quite enjoyed a second expansion to Baldur's Gate. The encounters were fun for me, the core of the story was alright. It sparked a feeling in me that I haven't felt since playing the infinity engine games in high school. It's a solid forgotten realms/infinity engine experience. You will notice quite a few of the reviews aren't commenting on the gameplay, or the core story. Instead they are focusing on an optional character you are free to ignore. My critique of that character is that in Faerun - especially knowing there is a potion to change genders in BGII - you would never know she was trans unless it was a reveal through influence/conversation. I encourage you to play the game. For a larger developer/publisher, the one star reviews would be drowned out largely by people who bought and played the game, while not irrationally fixating on one small part. Giving the game a one star review because of one or two barely significant political hot topics is bullying. The people that disagree with the direction gaming and society as a whole is going have a game popular enough, yet niche enough from a developer small enough that they can have a major negative impact on sales. Game gets three stars. I'd give it four but the bugs it had at launch were very noticeable. Beamdog has always fixed them eventually, but they would have been better off holding off another month or having a larger beta.

Buggy and fanfic quality of writing
People in this DLC talk like they are in a high school or bachelor class. Some will deliver their important word s in a quote , for example , some NPCs in game say something along the line of "l don't have to be "prejudiced" toward orge like you do". The word prejudiced is in a quote , just like that...... Seriously? That was a 2000s talks not a sentence that anyone in a fantasy word would deliver. l could understand if Baldur's gate was a j-manga which the CHARNAME is a high schooler time travel into fantasy realm but in is not . Baldurs's gate realm is suppose to be backwater and backward people in this world are uneducated compare to the real world so can who ever write conversations in this game please get it together and write lines that are believable under the game's environment ?

Great add-on to the best cRGP ever
Playing the Siege was a great pleasure for me. I had to go through the BG1 again and I tough I will be already tired by the end - but no, I was really enjoining going further and further into the campaign of Dragonspear. Game has some minor bugs (i.e. problems with containers, thus minus one star), but overall it is a great BG experience. I've played like 15-20h.

Terrible Fanfic
The quality of the story at a bad fanfic, and I can identify bad fanfic, because I had written them myself. So I do not advise you to play this edition, with impaired graphics, lots of bugs and Baldur Gates brand attached on top. So I probably go back to my heavily modified the original game, in which I can romance gays and lesbians, as well as Imoen.
