They still haven't fixed all of the problems in NWN2, and there already pulling out an expansion. You have to be joking, right?[snapback]34820[/snapback]
only thing there that peaks my interest is Rashemen and Thay-elessar[snapback]34855[/snapback]
Makes me think of Baldurs Gate[snapback]34862[/snapback]
They better have a miniature giant space hamster named Boo or it won't be the real Rasheman.-420[snapback]34864[/snapback]
I can't believe you just said miniature giant.-Elessar[snapback]34865[/snapback]
Boo is the best character in BG, though he takes up a quickitem slot.[snapback]34869[/snapback]
does anybody still have BG2?[snapback]34875[/snapback]
