I was hesitant to try this game due to people saying that it's too buggy. Having just finished both Baldur's 1 and 2, I prefer TTOE over those 2. This game has much more combat with lethal foes and the 3d characters look a lot better than the sprites found in Baldur's Gate. Yet the things I like the best is less fetch'em tasks and the combat that is much harder and requires you to think. Also can build your custom party of six and it's cool that your quest varies based on the alignment chosen. If you do decide to get this great game then get the co8 mod and careful when you saved.
