One of the reasons I stopped playing BG2 was that I came to this quest:

I was hired by the leader of the Shadow Thieves to see if this local leader was cheating on him. The thought was to get this guy's trust so I could get some evidence. I was to do this by doing some quests for him. The first quest was to assassinate this wizard (sure, I'm Neutral Good, I'll do it). So, my party sneaked into his house, and eventually we came up on him. He sais "who are you?!?". Here you have four alternatives:

1: Tell him that you're here to kill him and then attack him.
2: Wait for the game to crash (major waste of time, but you COULD do it).
3: Alt+tab and right click on the program and choose exit.
4: Ctrl+alt+delete and quit it from there.

What I WANTED to do was to tell him I was to clean out the shadow thieves, that they wanted him dead, and that I was to kill him in order to get their trust so I can backstab them later. And then ask him to leave town for a few weeks or so. That I couldn't even begin to clean out the Shadowthieves without committing an evil act was kind of... anoying.
