Personally i dont like this game. frankly i think its awfull but its very addictive so thats probably the only reason why i have played it for so long.
First of all i just have to mention the voices in the game, simply awful ( saw the post about the DK voice, but decided to add it here anyway )
and the voice thats talking during the intro-video ( dk voice? )
but worst of all, in samuels dungeon. i actually laughed out loud. 4 levers, and when you press one a voice says : BEWARE, one sais OF, one sais THE and one sais TRAPS. this voice sounds like something that was supposed to be used in a SEGA 8b game, but was considered to redicolous for people to hear, and so the put it in a black box and hid it 500 feet underground until Larian studios found it...
and second
the game doesnt feel like a rpg game. it feels controlled. take f.ex the battlefields in act 1. 3 islands with a bridge between them. it doesnt look like a natural enviroment, it looks really stupid. every island looks just like the other one. 3 squares next to each other.
and i dont feel the freedom that rpg-games are supposed to provide. i feel like.. "IF YOU WANT TO COMPLETE THIS GAME YOU HAVE TO ENTER BATTLEFIELD 1 AND KILL ALL THE MONSTERS IN ORDER TO ADVANCE IN OUR DUNGEONS" .
one good thing about the game is the Donkey ears that i found on top of a shelf, been using them ever since. they rule <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

welcome to the forum <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> i have just one remark "IF YOU WANT TO COMPLETE THIS GAME YOU HAVE TO ENTER BATTLEFIELD 1 AND KILL ALL THE MONSTERS IN ORDER TO ADVANCE IN OUR DUNGEONS" .
factually this is not really true as a number of gamers here have been through the game without entering the BFs in hardcore setting (and without cheating)... also if i understand well you have just finished Act 1... not the more passionating part in the game (sorry if i misunderstood)... it begins to be more interesting afterthat though... true even there is still always something like a linearity for the main plot quests...

Yes, the Deathknights voice sounded like Worf of Star Trek! It was really laughable, and I believe Larian could have done better.

Good Grief!
Don’t you all have more to do in your lives than register so you can post your one single complaint about BD and never become part of the Larian family?
So what if there are bugs in the game. True we would all like software to be bug free, but sheeeesh! Do what Clint Eastwood said to do in Heartbreak Ridge, “Adapt and Overcome!!!”
I mean get real!
I love BD. I’m still playing it and I have to take it real slow because I’m still on my first time through and I have it on the Hardest game setting. BD is one of the most challenging RPG’s I have ever played to date and I’ve played plenty of games as the regulars here at the Larian forum can attest to who know me.
I realize there will be plenty of other Trolls who'll come aboard to register and post a bad post about BD in the future, but I just had to speak my mind this time.
Quit being a bunch of single poster cry sacks and “Adapt and Overcome!!!”

What were you expecting the voice of a Deathknight to be? I always find that odd that so many were complaining of the voice. Do you think the Deathknight's voice should not be somewhat annoying?
The battlefields could have used more work instead of being straightforward and tedious but noone forces you to use them. On hardcore it's easier to avoid them because you level up so much during the campaign anyway that you don't get exp from them.
I finished all the battlefields because I have issues with doing everything but they were not the more fun moments.

@arutha welcome to the forum... @kyra: you are the one in a mood aren't you? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> @1357 and I believe Larian could have done better.
well anyone could always have done better anything <sigh> i guess we're all a bit tired with this debate about the DK voice to say the truth... you can always turn the sound off if it's really so disturbing...

Well, i started up my <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> aagain, last night for the first time in a long time.....
and i really enjoyed myself......not remembering where the heck i am and how much weapons / items i had acquired.... i played for at least 3-4 hours.... I liked the music..... and the DK didn't say a word for the whole time..... it's still early in my game.......somewhere after the lava flow.... i was in some church or something and happened to find a crystal fragment... ...but also.... ...Ooops, i drank the holy water in the cup...
...does anyone know what the heck i'm talking about??? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
It's the first time in months i've had a chance to play, and i enjoyed every minute of it.....
Now back to my query......where the heck am I? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

for the love of god, can somebody pls make a "your thoughts on BD" forum index and save everybody from the grief of reading these kinds of posts, which have dominated these forums since BD came out?

My thought on this :
- why ?
- we never had indexes
- to me, these thoughts are a most natural way of expressing things after having played a game ... and a god resource for Larian also. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
