To my hard drive. Yes, yes at least once a year it is a ritual of mine to re-install Baldurs Gate 2/TOB , try some new mods and a new character party combination.
For thos who care still about this game or my newest adventure for that matter can read further:
Lots of great mods out, some I haven't tried before including widescreen resolution. It sure makes things small on the screen BUT, it works pretty well and looks nicer than ever before. Giberlings Three has a fantastic assortment of mods most noteably the Tweak pack and fix pack - tons of stuff included too much to list here.
This time around I am going with mainly custom created party. Some are chars made from scratch some are NPCS I modified using the Level 1 NPC Mod ( made Nalia a pure sorcerer and Edwin a Wild Mage for example ). This party is mainly evil.
Human Kensai/Mage ( protagonist )
Elf Archer ( Custom made )
Halfling Soulknife ( Custom made thief kit from a mod I downloaded. Lets him achieve mastery in short swords and summon a mind blade which increases Thaco,dmg. Got him using a soundset of Garret from the "Thief" Game )
Then I will mix in NPCs as I feel like but will probably use the following NPCs heavily:
Edwin ( changed to Wild Mage )
Viconia ( changed to Priest of Talos )
Valygar ( changed to cleric/ranger )
Very Light on the tanks and Valygar may not like me much so I may have to put in Korgan.
I doubt once again I will finish the game but the party creation/customization is perhaps the best part. Anyone else still playing this classic?
