I plan to start a BGT run when I have Gavin converted to BGT, then play through all the way to the end of ToB. As in cutting down on actual moding while doing a bit of research. After that, I'll start in on Gavin for BG2 in earnest.

believe it or not, I have never finished any computer game that I started.

No kidding? But playing the game is more fun than ending it, it's true.

Surprisingly, the last time I finished BG2 was almost six years ago (was late 2001). Oddly, that's the last time I finished any computer game.

I haven't had much time to play since then, although I recently started a run of BG2 that I'll probably be finishing next year.

Well, for me, I did finish BG1 with TotSC just before BG2 came out, after that, I went through SoA after ToB came out, and I never finished IT.
I might need to despretly hope that BG3 would came so I could finish the total BG2, but the 15 Gbits of installation material(games mods etc.), really don't help my dreams to becoming any truer, nor do the other unfinished games and mods etc.

I dunno, if the ending is good (take BG2 SOA ending for instance) then its well worth finishing the job.

But the real issue is when something becomes, well... so old you could do it blind-folded, or something along that line.

Course that would be a good challenge in itself, reminds me to try that someday.

Oh and from this point in time, I haven't even had the chance to play for longer than five minutes in the last month and a half. Go figure.

Btw, does anyone know exactly what the heck is going on with our so called BG3, I haven't heard nothing about it since the first speculations about some company starting on planning it.

I'm in chapter 6 right now.

Hm ... about 3 months ago, though I still play it all the time. I started a ToB game yesterday, and I still enjoy it as much as ever. Even with mods I really like, I'll play through with them once, uninstall them, forget about them, remember them and install them again. It's a never-ending cycle, and one that keeps me constantly entertained.

... Yes, yes. I'm quite aware that it doesn't take much to keep me going.

I finished SoA last time like a year ago, but I have started playing dozens of times since. I should get serious with it.

[Pandæmonium]

Two or three months ago. I've been meaning to start a new game for a couple of weeks now, but I'm undecided about character class and what mods to use.

[leahnkain]

I think in 2001, shorty after that I quite the modding community. I came back to the modding scence only to help make Classic Adventures.

[Elanorea]

Never finished it, actually. I've played SoA right up to the final battle (in which I invariably get slaughtered), and I'm about halfway through ToB at the moment. I don't think I'm gonna beat that either, though; so far it's been much harder than SoA.

[Solar's Harper]

Depends really if you installed something like Accension which makes the last fight different, and ten times harder, along with alot of other difficutly changes in TOB.
Is it just me, or is it impossible to go through either game without 2 mages and 1 cleric?

[Elanorea]

Hm... well, my party has 2 mages and 1 cleric, but I'm pretty sure that if you aren't as untalented at gaming as me, you could get through without. In other news, well, the "other half" (ie. beating Abazigal and Balthazar) of the game went faster than I thought, and so I face the final battle in ToB. And, surprise surprise, get slaughtered. (sigh) In the end I cheated through the battle to see the epilogues, but one day I am going to beat it fair and square, dammit!

[Kellen]

I tend to bring two clerics, a druid, and two mages, possibly a third or a bard too. Hence multi and dualclasses are a blessing beyond words.

[Catseye]

I finished BG1 probably about 3 months ago (and that was like the 20th time). I never get tired of either BG1 or SOA. In fact, I have BG1 with TUTU installed on my laptop and SOA installed on my main computer so I go back and forth.
