@Mea: The freedom to explore was the best thing about BG1 and I missed it in BG2. But the more cohesive plot, brilliantly realised NPC's and general inventiveness made up for it IMO. Still, wandering around the wilderness, never knowing what you would find was engrossing. Anyone remember that guy who had been turned into a chicken? When a chicken started talking to me I thought someone had spiked my drink. Then I remembered it was already alcoholic.
