Very short game of Baldur's Gate

Killing Gorion before he gets the chance to irresponsibly take you outside of Candlekeep without so much as a wand in his possession.

Tethtoril can take like 50 Drizzts with his damn lightning bolt spell. I would know, I tried it

[Vidrinskas]

@MegaLipid According to the manual it's the gods who are intervening on his (Tethtoril's) behalf. It is possible to kill him when you return to Candlekeep later in the game.

[MegaLipid]

@Vidrinskas Why would the gods be intervening for Tethtoril? He's like a third-string plot character

[Vidrinskas]

@MegaLipid I really don't know. Maybe it's a Forgotten Realms lore thing (of which I have little knowledge). Maybe Bio just put it in so you couldn't kill him in the prologue.

shit, when he said "our rules are very strict" nostalgia'd hard

[Vidrinskas]

Yeah. Still a great game, even today.

Well, just realize, Gorion- one of the best wizards in the game charmed with level one spell xD

[ClubScape]

Lol!

Guard: Our rules....are very strict!

[Apolix1234]

lol ... how can you even come up with something like that :D

[Banefane]

not bad dude not bad at all

(Never thought it will be posible)

[monkeyslaye]

Even Hull came after you... That guy was too lazy to even grab a longsword from the barracks!

@AlexLoeher Lol, great job then!

My favourite (of this genre) are Planescape Torment, BG1 and BG2, in that order; and I find Fallout 1&2 to be the "weakest links" here. Though cool skills and such, the characters that get to go with you are pretty flat.

[AlexLoeher]

@Owneador1337 yes all fantastic games, though this one is probably my favorite game of all time. i thought i was the only person who knew about this,(because i found it while goofing around) but thats the internet for ya. i must have searched almost every square inch of the map, killed drizzit, had 20 magic missiles, found firebead again and killed an immortal demon. great game

[Owneador1337]

@AlexLoeher Oh yeah, my bad. Didn't re-read :P.

BG's and the old Fallout's (and PS: Torment, I think) are full of little cool exploits like that :P. Not to mention all the quests you can complete, then kill the NPC, and recover the item you brought to him/her with no loss of reputation and right in front of a few guards.
