Thats Dark Alliance 1 & 2. THEY SHALL NOT BE GROUPED WITH BALDURS GATE! NOT NOW! NOT EVER! Rawr!Toastergoat said:
Well, it wasnt there because I added the things people told me too and by the time people started mentioning Planescape it was full, so I added it to the thing with the least votes.Axolotl said:
No. You already have them. Don't be greedy.NuclearPenguin said:
I have to say I much prefered Dark Alliance to Baldurs gate.NuclearPenguin said:
How.. How?! HOW?! I admit, I own Dark Alliance 1 & 2, they're fun, they're great fun on co-op, but they are skidmarks compared to baldur's gate.scumofsociety said:
There you go, you already answered your question. Dark alliance 1&2 were fun to play. Baldurs gate was not, it was a chore. Same as every other bioware RPG except, for some wierd reason, NWN1.NuclearPenguin said:
the first two fallout games.
point of pride: i've played fallout ever since they came out, im not one of the new converts.

huh I had no idea they were that different, guess I was a bit of a noob in the day. I was never really a fan of RPG's since my PC sucked an I only had a Gamecube *sad face*Trotgar said:
Almost any PC can handle Baldur's Gate. My first laptop was the size of 3 ps3's and could handle BG1.Toastergoat said:
But anyway, they are VERY VERY VERY different. Please, play BG 1/2
Oh, and also, you are the image of me..
I use that exact avatar as my picture on Skype.
And Im usually called TetrisGOAT, you're called Toastergoat..
Because ive never played it and I didnt remember it at the time of making the thread.Axolotl said:
I suppose I'll have to go for Planescape: Torment. I still have to finish that one of these days. I didn't start until a couple years ago, and then I lost my saves, so I was waiting a bit to restart it until I didn't mind replaying the beginning again and got sidetracked by other stuff. Maybe after I finish The Witcher (which will be any year now, at this rate...). The parts of it I did play before it tried to kill and eat itself I liked more than anything else on the list, though.
Kind of a shame Diablo's winning, since it makes me feel dirty to call it an RPG next to all those others. I'm also kind of biased, since I never really liked it in the first place. Heh. Most things I consider to be "classic" RPGs aren't on there, since I was more of a console person back then (high five to whoever it was who mentioned Illusion of Gaia, even if it wasn't nearly good enough to deserve a spot in a poll like this...still own a physical copy of that). I'd probably go for "most good SNES RPGs that aren't Chrono Trigger", since I'm one of those weird people who didn't see what the big deal was with it. CT was very polished and had some good ideas, but I had a lot more actual fun with stuff like FF6 and Lufia 2 (and I know someone out there will hunt me down and kill me in my sleep for saying I liked Chrono Cross more than Chrono Trigger).
Oh, and if having to deal with the ancient interface (after being spoiled by newer games) when going back to play stuff like the original Fallout these days makes me feel like kicking puppies, would I be able to tolerate Baldur's Gate without it making me want to stab someone? I never did get around to that when it was new but always kind of meant to. Same question for Arcanum, since that's been on my list for years, too.
