For you modders out there, what are your impressions on the possibilities modding the game?
Adding playable NPCs for example, a stable of all BG games, seems a bit underwhelming since all conversations are now of the cinematic type...smaller party size, so maybe this is a bit hard to tie in with the story.
BG2 had such great variety in modded NPCs, with banters, quests, romances, active role in the storyline.....even had crossmod banters/interactions. Adrian, Kelsey, Fade, Angelo, Gavin, Arath, Darian, Solaufein, Valen, Xulaye, Varshoon, Yvette......
This imo is the modding we haven't seen with DOS's, the content adding stuff. Mechanics is where we saw most of the work. Attributed to the tool not being friendly enough and if I recall they didn't want us messing with the main game locked out, which I felt was a mistake as Bethesda sits back and makes millions as other devs fight the wrong fight.
