valeriusGOG: Not quite sure what is meant by multiplayer shenanigans, like it's some kind of cheese? There's nothing wrong with making your own party, or making however many characters you want and adding npcs for the rest.
But it requires starting multiplayer mode, which isn't always possible. (I tried it once (using BG2 classic on Linux), and wasn't able to get multiplayer to work.) valeriusGOG: There's nothing wrong with modding the npcs to whatever class floats your boat, assuming it's all within the vanilla rules, but I'm definitely not one to tell anyone how to play their game.
At this point, you're no longer playing the same game. (Worth noting that I dislike many of the rule changes that were introduced with the Fixpack and with the EE.)
