The (expected) next-in-line D&D computer game

by TexasFFL , Dec 28 '00
Pros: A fine next-step computer RPG, great graphics, good (if limited) sounds
Cons: Many minor irritating faults
I've played D&D since 1978, and have played all of the SSI Gold-and-other-color-box sets, starting with the Apple IIc version and graduating to the PC. I've role-played with every intellect level from morons to geniuses, and this game falls somewhere...

Baldur's Gate

by nailbomb , Jan 19 '00
Pros: Huge world, engrossing story-line with many twists and turns and a Very surprising ending
Cons: some load times, the experience point limit, party members getting "lost"on their way to a certain point, not much else
Possibly one of the best RPGs (role-playing games) ever. If you have ever mistakenly bought, or played, a TSR (Dungeons & Dragons, etc.) licensed video game in the past, DO NOT let this game slip by you! This is not the pseudo first person,...

This game proves that D&D is still cool [revised]

by SupergoldZero , Mar 11 '01
Pros: Graphics [for their time, 1998], Sound, Music
Cons: May be very hard for D&D newbies
Baldur's Gate, one of the coolest ideas for a RPG. Combine the fun of Dungeons and Dragons with interaction of Video Games and you come up with great titles such as Baldur's Gate 1, Tales of the Sword Coast [BG's expansion pack] ,and 2, Diablo 1 and 2,...

by Sagrabah , Apr 27 '00
Pros: An excellent sub. for the real thing
Cons: Tends to make girlfriends mad
I'm an avid Role Player and I'm always on the look out for games to substitute the D&D experience when my friends and I cannot meet. Baldur's gate did exactly that, matching my expectations and even exceeding them.
I played through the game as...

Our Most Perfect form of Artificial Intelligence in a Game?!

by TheTYK , May 08 '00
Pros: ALL OF IT!
Cons: Nothing
It's true! Interplay has developed the most perfect form of artificial intelligence available to the public in a game. Baldur's Gate is not only a very accommodating game, it has beautifully rendered scenery, and a wonderfully large selection of...

by SmakNuts , Apr 13 '00
Pros: Everything about it is great!
Cons: Nothing at all
Most RPG's are dull,drab and two dimensional! Not this one.. This RPG has it all. This is one of the best RPG's I would have to say that I have ever played before. It has a very awesome intro to the game and the Music and Sound effects are just mind...

Baldur's Gate isn't for everyone

by idein , Apr 04 '00
Pros: None
Cons: Could not install, crashes computer
I am a Diablo fan so I never had an interest in Baldur's Gate.
However, last month my daughter wanted to get it for her birthday. We purchased it from Wal-Mart at $39.99. Not a bad price as computer games go.
However the installation is a...

by BShel96 , Dec 13 '99
Pros: Great graphics, follows D&D rules, lots of stuff to do, tons to explore!
Cons: No multi-player spawn, lots of CD's to carry (5 of them).
This game is the ultimate fun for anyone into RPG's! If you like Dungeons & Dragons, you WILL love this game! There are tons of items to get, loads of people to talk to (all with different voices!) and hordes of different monsters to kill. The...

Pros: Fun, Detailed, intricate, multiplayer
Cons: 5 CDs long
Do you like Warcraft? How about Diablo? Ever play one of those old-school AD&D games on a turn based system? How about the X-Com series?

If you enjoy ANY of the above games, you will love this one! It has the intense playability and...

An AD&D Player's Dream

by pseudoidiot , Jan 29 '00
Pros: great game play, and good re-playability
Cons: none come to mind
What can I say? I love AD&D. Though, truthfully, I've only been playing for a little over a year, but I've been role-playing in other ways for nearly 4 1/2. A few months before Baldur's Gate was released, I read about it somewhere (probably in a...

TRUE Quality AT LAST!

by Banlish , May 19 '00
Pros: Rich game play, Accurate and playable portrail of AD&D paper and pen system to PC
Cons: Long load times if you don't install the ENTIRE 2.4 gig GAME!!!
I must admit I have played more then 20 roleplay games in the last 4 years and Balders Gate stands head and shoulders above the rest. For instance Just starting out was a plesurable change from the norm. You are given a random amount of points and YOU...

Closest to AD&D so far

by aladeptus , Feb 15 '00
Pros: AD&Dish, graphics, sounds,
Cons: Multi-player doesn't work well
I've been around computers forever, using it to do everything, from writing programs to chatting to playing games. Over time I started playing games less and less until I got to the point where I might buy one game a year. And then came Baldur's...

a great game

by manjarres , Jan 24 '00
Pros: stroryline, gameplay, adventure, universe
Cons: Changing CD!
Baldur's Gate is a role playing game. You can create your own character and customizes all the different skills. It takes place in an Eroic fantasy Universe as rich as Tolkien's one. You can control many different characters. The story is really...
