Hello everyone, im an big fan of every game that is about forgotten realms and I was so happy to hear about BG:EE coming out, preordered it ofc and started playing the minute it was possible. I've played BG1, BG2, both IWD's, planescape and every other game about forgotten realms for hundreads of hours with mods and without.
So first I played Black Pits, finished it in around 2 hours, had to reload 3 times through the whole thing, it was fun.. for 2 hours.
After I killed Sarevok (cleared everything in totsc), I felt pretty.. unsatisfied so to say. It was like I would have played BG1 with the mod that lets you play BG1 with BG2 engine. Some graphics were better and little extra stuff added but it felt the same, no extra items, VERY little extra content (Had the blackguard npc and it was like some fan made mod that he made in 30 minutes and he was way overpowered aswell).
So what was the problem?
BG2 skills and kits are way too overpowered, they are not suited for BG1 and it totally ruined the game experience for me, I played berserker main with good stats and she could pretty much solo the whole game after lvl 6.
It was way too easy, I remember struggling with the first few gibberlings back in the day and now my char just demolished them with one hit each, this is all because of the kit that wasnt originally in the game (+15 hp at level 1, seriously?, immune to pretty much everything.. not overpowered at all right?)
BG2 kits and very little extra content ruined it for me, I know it wasnt supposed to be alot but this was just way too easy and way little extra stuff.
Don't take it the wrong way, I enjoyed playing BG1 story again as its been quite a while since I last played it and I will keep supporting everything that has to do with Forgotten Realms but I just wanted to tell my opinion about it, no offence to anyone just my 2 cents.
