Like in the good old days, but with nice graphics :) For modern gamers the game is hardcore even in normal difficulty. It is a strange feeling to be commited to READ and THINK in a game. Not your everyday CoD ^^
I've been gaming since my 5th birthday and i'm now 33, still gaming after all those years. Baldur's Gate 2 is the only game i've played several times since its release. You can go wrong if you buy it if you like RPG. It has everything : challenging fights, epic main quest, side stories with your teamates... I still remember feelings i had the first time i encounter the Red Dragon (epic music), the death of my beloved and several other little things that make this game the Parangon of all PC RPG. And even better, it doesn't age, as it doesnt have crappy 3D graphism. Go buy and play it.
