I regret that I did not play Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance back when it was on PS2 and Gamecube. The gameplay is in a similar vein as Diablo, but still holds true to a more Dungeons and Dragons experience. While I played through the game solo, I felt that the game would be even more fun with couch-coop. Regardless, the single player experience was enjoyable. The graphics certainly show their age, but aside from that I found no major issues playing through the campaign. My only real gripe is that the game felt a bit grindy, and I often found myself having to import back to different save points in order to level up and get better loot. Otherwise, it was easily worth the playthrough. Not to mention it also ran flawlessly on PC and the Steam Deck!
I've played through Shogo many times way back. I was happy to find it again on GOG and used whatever tricks I could find to get it working. Unfortunately, those tricks don't appear to work any longer. Both Shogo and Blood II crash immediately on start no matter what solution I try.
I played this game quite a bit back in the day and never finished it. After finding it again on GOG, I ran through the hoops to get this old title working again. Unfortunately, those old tricks don't appear to work any longer. Game crashes immediately on start no matter what solution I try.
