@RiseofBane The problem I have with more recently released titles is they tend to lack freedom of choice: you tend to get railroaded into good vs. evil choices (netural if you're lucky) with too many assumptions about why you made those choices; progression is usually too linear, not allowing you to explore the world "in parallel"; and not allowing you free reign (e.g., they usually won't allow you to kill certain NPCs).
In short, a good RPG lets you write your own story. :)
This is the game which introduced Forgotten Realms and D&D to me so many years ago...
Thanks for doing this playthrough, brings back memories:)

@sleepybrownbear Ha ha! I've never played KotOR, but I saw a video with Bindo, and yeah, Kevin Michael Richardson's voice is hard to miss!

Thanks for this, MNINL, this is youth sentiment for me! It's still one of the best RPGs out there..

Baldur's gate is probably the RPG with the most rich/decent stories. Today's rpg's are so much based on actions, and weak stories.
