Not last but definitely least.

As a big fan of the series I decided to buy this expansion despite all the one star reviews I read everywhere. It's not THAT bad as I expected, but Siege of Dragonspear still leaves me a bit dissapointed. The main pros of the game: + music - soundtrack is really beautiful, thrilling and full of motives from original games. good work. + I really appreciate the effort to make the story of Bhaalspawn full and complete, I also like that there's explanation of Imoen becoming a mage - maybe not the best written one, maybe not the longest one, definitely quick and easy one, but it's present. + new companions are quite well balanced - when it comes to classes and statistics and can be easily made OP. + there is a main villain to chase as a main story, there is annoying gnome. Annoying gnomes are important. The list of cons could be longer: - shaman class leaves me dissapointed, there were much more interesting d&d classes to choose - it also doesn't have a stronghold in BG2; - speaking of roleplay, some dialogues in the game gave me the feeling that writers are trying to force their own idea of my Bhaalspawn's personality, moreover most of them are maintained in Dragon Age 2 style - first option is lawful, second one is humourous (although, same as DA2, humour is mostly poor) or brutal and bloodthirsty. This isn't fitting in the original series. - both here and in the EEs the writing sometimes is really out of lore, some dialogues doesn't really make sense, some are political. Despite I like the new characters (at least Dorn and Neera), it hurts that the originals characters seem changed a bit. - game is full of bugs. I don't mean beetles nor ankhegs. - 25 hours of gameplay in comparison with other three parts of the series is rather humble. I'm pleased anyways - it's still Baldur's Gate, but it's rather a poorly made filler to the series than a full expansion like TOB.

Enjoyable, but it's no must-play

The main plot is alright and ties together the two main games, the new characters are nice, the gameplay is still solid, there's great loot and also some of the new areas are quite well designed. A lot of the criticism on this expansion is quite overblown. However, theres no denying that there are issues: the writing is very inconsistent outside of the main quest and some of the lines feel like they were written by a teenage intern, not to mention the sidequests suck and don't add much to an experience that already feels quite distant from the sprawling adventure of the original games. One note ragarding the "controversy"... A bunch of people got mad somehow at the presence of a transgender character, citing how forced and hamfisted that revelation was. It's all a bunch of bs. It's one very minor and missable character that gives you a small fetch quest (which you can ignore) that is only completable well after half-way through the story and only if you complete such meaningless quest AND you press them for more info on why they asked you to complete it in the first place they will reaveal to you about their story. It's the exact opposite of it being forced on you.

Had potential but overall disappointing

Compared to the original games, the writing was not as good. It was nice to see what they did with Viconia, (felt more like her BG2 version) and see additional personality with Dynaheir. However the new NPC additions were really bad and completely unnecessary, other than Corwin (who I would like to see in BG2). As for gameplay, well it was disappointing. The siege is basically several smaller battles, your party plus some allies fighting a small group of enemies and then a somewhat larger scale battle, with so many NPCs on the screen its difficult to keep track of things or issue meaningful commands and it felt like I had no control over proceedings. There were no epic moments. What made BG2 so good was either fighting one incredibly powerful monster e.g. Dragon, Liche, or party vs party combat. There was nothing quite like that in SoD. The plot lacks cohesion, and simply falls apart towards the end, when you begin fighting demons and go after Caelar Argent (again someone I would have liked to see in BG2). I was also beginning to really like Skie as well but well that also did not go to well, as I know there is nothing in BG2 continues that particular plot (Wish she was in BG2 as a recruitable character). The Irenicus cameo was overused at the end, and that scene should have been done completely differently. Given the ending was predetermined by the beginning of BG2, I just did not find SoD to be a satisfactory link between the games. Nor did I feel compelled to continue onto BG2. The story still remains incomplete as it currently stands.

Boring

The beginning of the Story it felt pretty intriguing, but after playing a while it was somehow very boring. Also the choice of Companions was not the greatest, Dialog Options lead into the same Answers and Outcomes, there was also no feeling about exploring a World, all together, it hasn't kept me playing through it. Skipped to BG2 and it was much more enjoyable.

Really underrated game

This game is definitely a worthy addition to the Baldur's Gate trilogy. The main focus on this is the gameplay and combat. Some of the battles are so massive that there's no way the old infinity engine could have handled it 2 decades ago when Baldur's Gate was first introduced. There are a few flaws that might be annoying at the start though, namely 1) only a very limited number of characters from BG1 can be carried over to Siege of Dragonspear, unlike in ToB where everyone could come over, 2) there's less joinable party members then other Baldur's Gate games, so it can really restrict what kind of parties you'll assemble. 3) The story isn't as good as the original BG1 and BG2, though to be fair it's hard to top the great story telling of Shadows of Amn. The game does not deserve the 2.6 overall rating it currently has. The reason it's score is that low is because a bunch of people review bombed the game upon launch for daring to have a single Transgender character, who's admission to being transgender is very easy to miss given that you have to complete a side quest to unlock the dialog where it's even mentioned.
