what makes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> better?
what makes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> not as good?

Yes, I happen to own both games. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> There are several reasons why I prefer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> over <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> at this point.
1. I like DD's skill system better than BD's.
2. I prefer playing with a single character.
3. There are several elements missing in BD that were in DD. Descriptions of what the charms do, no experience bar on the main screen, no timestamp on quests in the diary, no enjoyable personal traits screen. They did fix the inventory in 1.4 so kudos to Larian for that. Also, I do like the fact that in BD, quests get updated with an appropriate description once they are finished.
4. I prefer the DD method of making potions to fiddling around with the plants in BD.
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> is a good game but it is inferior to <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> in my opinion...and opinions will vary. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
