So many reviews by butthurt gamergaters. Good god. Make no mistake, the game is great. Well-written, interesting, and like the original games, not afraid to stray into social commentary on occasion (funny how some people see that as a bad thing). The combat and general game structure feels a bit more like Icewind Dale than Baldur's Gate, but since it maintain's Baldur's Gate's rich story tradition, I can hardly consider that a downside. To this 18-year Baldur's Gate vet, Siege of Dragonspear feels like coming home.
