Well, it's too bad I already bought BG2 and PT then. Tempted to grab Icewind Dale and then some other game for free, but 1. I still haven't played BG2 and PT and my backlog is enormous, and 2. This is basically just a standard 50% off sale and they have those rather frequently, so I may as well wait for Christmas when I can get any game for half off.

Is Baldur's Gate II a direct sequel, or is it just the same 'lineage' of games as in the Final Fantasy and Elder Scrolls series? Do I need to play the first or can I jump straight to II?

It's a direct sequel, but jumping straight to 2 is a decent idea regardless. 1's pretty outdated, can turn newcomers off the series, and is just a good game rather than the masterpiece that BG2 is. I started with 2, and I'm pretty glad I did. It does a decent job of recapping 1's plot, anyway.

BG2 is superior to the original, but BG is still an excellent game. I don't think that "good" does it justice. It tends to be underrated because its sequel was one of the best games ever forged by mortal hands.

I'll get BGI to go with PS:T. It's been too long since I had any old-school RPGs to play.

Buy two copies of PS:T.

You can't go wrong with more copies of Torment.

Just started BG1. I hope those two people I met on the road weren't important >_>

There's a total conversion mod that imports all of BG1's content into the BG2 engine. Fixes quite a few of its flaws, and incorporates all the new features introduced in 2, such as the extra class options.

The series is designed to have one character that you import from the original into the sequel, so it's worth playing both.
