@premier6666 Yeah.. The WORST thing about the Beholders is that they can petrify characters in the blink of an eye, as well as can cast dozens of nasty spells in quick succession.. Mind Flayers? well I think we both know the problem with them lol
And what exactly do you mean by the term "gimmick" runs? Is that another term for speedrun?
@LokizarroX Gimmicky, weird party composition. One class only party, solo runs, no spellcasting run, solo bard run... I like making oddball characters.
Oh christ mind flayers i remember fighting them for the first time and being like ".... it isn't possible to win..." uthlarids or what ev were just plain TERRIBLE to fight too...
fooblepie: I had thought of that, but the NWN toolset is not flexible enough. Everything would have to be rectangular, and the graphics aren't too good anymore.
The D&D problem: I think the spirit of the BG series does not lie in the D&D ruleset, but in the story. We should find equivalents for most monsters, but might also have to create new ones. Another problem would be the characters - Jaheira would have to be a shapeshifter, Jan Jansen maybe a dwarf...
There's no game as epic as this, jesus christ. down in the effin' Underdark and everything. I was mindblown when our ship first sank and that punk Saemon Haevarian fled, yet again.
underdark had to be my favorite place..aside from the stupid mindflayers..and the drow ambushes..Mainly cuz I loved the drow in the first place.ha. x3.
oh god so did i lol x3! but i did love the whole thing there..I tried to make my character look like a drow..I think that would be a really good option, for like elfs, to pick if you want to be a drow or a regular one ya know?
The politic of Dark Elf is interesting and it really test us on our judgment, plus it also test us on our love towards our chosen lover... Both Aerie and Viconia will have a different sort of jealousy when the Dark elf princess approach us..lol
Did they enter combat in the middle of this? It's been a while but don't remember that part of the music being part of the background, and it seems there was other parts to the Underdark music that aren't in here
Oh wait I think it's all there up to 1:48... wow, a lot shorter than I expected. I still don't remember if the part after 1:48 was there; that might be because I mentally tuned it out when playing because it's generic fighting music...... I don't know... gotta find that BG2/TOB cd now I want to play the game again
Yeah at 1:48 that's the generic Combat Music... So I would have to assume that yeah they did. However... There is a distinct possibility that the combat music comes from the Underdark... Hmmm...
and um i'm not sure cuz i remember this being part of the underdark naturally and i would always freak out cuz i thought something was gonna attack me x3
My fave track on the OST, aside from the shadow-tainted forest. It really captured the feeling of a vast, oppressive blackness that was the essence of the underdark.
Whats the name of the music that plays when you fight drow in the city? it was so epic!

I have to play it again, no question. Unfortunately I had a bug somewhere in the middle so I had to quit - that was 2000.
That game brings the best atmosphere and world you can dive into.
( Ad&d (2nd Edition) rules! I hate all the stupid wizards of the costs adaptions :( )

This song brings a sick feeling up in my stomach as I remember the sheer frustration that was the Underdark. Despite that, it was still awesome.

Ahh yes, the underdark. Ender of so many of my adventurers. I think half of my play troughs ended at some point during it.

@premier6666 How come? was your cover blown as a Drow in Ust Natha?
or was it the Mind Flayers? in which case, I suppose I can empathize.

@LokizarroX Effing mind flayers. And beholders. I like to do "gimmick" runs, and those never survived facing that kind of stuff.

Maybe you are right. It also depends on the toolset - does it allow new monsters, Or do we have to take genlocks and call them "orcs"?
As for the setting, the FR world does not depend on D&D rules. If we can adjust the DA rules, that will be no problem.
It would be an immensly huge project though. Imagine we use professional speakers for all the dialogs :)
