Have to say, I've played every single version, every single update, and around half the mods (the one's that looked goodish anyway) This Version in particular, in addition to having the obvious spitshine, brought back the mighty Neera, queen of..... chitter chitter..... Sorry got turned into a squirrel for a minute. Half the Reviewers complain about mindflayer instwipeouts, hate to tell ya this, but welcome to Faerun, that's what they're SUPPOSED to do. This actually FIXES the issues I encountered in both bg1 and bg2, with horrid basilisks that instastone, ridiculous 6 spells per round magi, skeletons that litteraly took more damage then a dragon and kept going.... the list goes on. I have NEVER encountered such an issue here, beemdog actually did well, tho I'm not a big fan of the char outlines for bg1ee, you can toggle those.... As for anything else, the writing for the extras flow's almost the same as the original's, the graphics look far better than any mod I ever found, the spells more fit the pnp versions, the only real issue I had was the simple one, I couldn't type exactly what I wanted my Character to do, and have them do it. Alas! something nobody has ever managed outside the normal way! ALAS, I must rage quit and scream and wail until the stars change their patterns! ALAS, I must kick and scream and.... wait honey no! don't threaten me with the sofa for teasing these kids!......... 5/5 as I am truly impressed boys..... Now excuse me while I go remind my wife why she married a gamer. Ad Victorium, and God (or Ao if yer a superfan) Bless.
