Forgotten Realms: The Archives - Collection Two

Pleasantly surprised

I got it for FRUA and of course Pools of Radiance and Curse of Azure Bonds are classics, but I just finished Gateway to the Savage Frontier. It was easy to miss amid the falling quality of SSI's games in the later years. But this game had a proper ending! I enjoyed running my degenerate party through it (level 3 cleric who renounces the faith to take up magic and his squad of infidel fighters). I remember my deep disappointment in Eye of the Beholder's single wall of text ending. So Gateway was a nice surprise. Luckily that isn't in this collection and I'm looking forward to Treasures of the Savage Frontier next. Totally worth the price and I haven't even played half the games yet.
