I’m really enjoying my
time with Baldur’s Gate right now. I’ve cleared out the western side of the
Sword Coast and am getting ready to attack the bandits’ camp led by Tazok. I
have Tutu installed so I could progress directly on to Baldur’s Gate 2… but I
have other plans. I look forward to revealing what they are as soon as I get
closer to finishing this game, I think once I actually get to the city of Baldur’s Gate
would be a good time.
What I really love
while playing is the ingenious combination of turn based and real time combat
that lets the action be paused at any time so that I can give orders quickly
and efficiently. I am, by no means, a dexterous player anymore since I quit
playing FPS games competitively online, so having this option is great. I’m
also quite bad at maximizing the spell potential in the game so it’s very
challenging at the normal skill level. People who can beat Baldur’s Gate on the
highest difficulty and still find it so easy that they need to install further
difficulty mods amaze me. I’ll just stick with the default.
Anyway, sorry for the
delay, but I’m having a good time with Baldur’s Gate and Dungeon Crawl Stone
Soup when I have less time to play. I may do a write up on that in the future.
Thanks for sticking with me.
