ITT: Games nobody could possibly dislike.

i don't like it but i respect it

>Implying
Sup Forums hates video games breh

shit taste

...

there's plenty of reasons to dislike it, but it's a fairly good game

replace it with MGS1

there are none. its literally perfect

You can only really call it bad if you're comparing it to a different game.

Original or EE?

>fags with awful taste
Why am I not surprised Sup Forums?

I don't like Baldur's Gate 2. I can't stand isometric PC RPGs. BG2 reminds me of a slower Diablo with conversation trees, but I hate Diablo.

EE is better in every way, prove me wrong, and none of that "it's broken and full of bugs" shit, it got fixed ages ago.

Its the greatest game of its genre, and one of the greatest games of all time

Especially with the Imoen Romance Mod

It was shit and you only liked it because you were 12. Replace that with MGS1 or GZ, and I'll agree.

>tfw you play as a female and Imoen's romance event starts

>Be a female sorcerer
>Try out Mod
>Dialogue changes because of your gender
>Has more lesbian events

Hmm now i have to play the female sorcerer to the end, and i kind of did it only for shits and giggles.

...

Don't go in denial Sup Forums you love it.

...

Has anyone played or replayed BGII recently? I played BG when it came out and loved it, but playing BG2 for the first time now I'm surprised by how much of the stuff in it is clearly bioware taking the first steps down to the shithole they're in today.

Terrible, irrelevant romances, little to no world exploration, go-here-do-that quests with no thought.

The game is still pretty good don't get me wrong, but it's a step in the wrong direction from the first one.

>this bait

Nice try.

UNATCO?

My favorite genre is stealth games and I hate mgs.

i replay bg2 annually and its every bit as good as it was the first time. the romances are well written and make sense, you dont feed trinkets to your npcs to get them to love you, you need to actually understand the caracter and respond accordingly, e.g. you shouldnt fuck aerie the first time she offers herself to you, or you need to be bold and tough with viconia because shes a drow. at the price of no world exploration the quests are well thought out and the areas available are packed with conent.

You don't explore outside, but the cities are filled with lots of things to do. Almost all NPCs have quests, there are secrets everywhere...

>you don't explore outside
Literally over 50% of the game takes place outside the city

>almost all the NPCs have quests
No, just the named ones, as usual.

>secrets everywhere
There are really only a handful of 'secret' locations that you aren't led to by a quest, and these tend to break the game somewhat (getting a +4 sword that instagibs all nearby undead with a 7th level spell once a day, in the first 5 minutes after the tutorial level)

>>you don't explore outside
>Literally over 50% of the game takes place outside the city

But you don't actually "explore" any of it, you just get a map location from a quest NPC and click on it to arrive there. In BG1 you could set off from candlekeep and go wandering in any direction you wanted.

It's like Croydon on a friday night!

BG1 has a bunch of area's wilderness area's with most having nothing in it but animals.

BG2 has a bunch of area's and just about all of them have a multiple quests leading to it and a dungeon.

You might prefer random wilderness, but both are fine.

there are anough of these npcs that you always have something to do, i can hardly think of a non-openworld game that has you sink so many hours into it. and there is a lot of secrets and optional conent when you think about it. also daystar is a +2 weapon and you ahve to kill a fucking lich for it.

I know what you mean.

Go ahead Op.

Same here, fàm.

Today I just finished BG1, including all the extra content from EE.

Honestly, no way I see myself going through BG2.

I could go hours discussing the good things and the bad things. I understand why those games were so appraised back in 1999, but honestly, I don't think they hold up very well.

But quickly summarizing, BG is not as hard as people claim it to be. Once you get the hang of it. It's almost impossible to die(last time I died in the game was in chapter 2, when in a optional area a siren kissed my MC and he died a insta-death).

For me it becomes too much repetitive/monotonous after a while. And once you achieve a certain level and have decent gear, it's a walk in the park. I accidentally finished Durlag's tower in chapter 3(entered the tower with Level 4 characters, finished it with Level 7~8, tons of high end gear and rich as fuck). I had no idea it was end game DLC because it was a blind playthrough. The rest of the game I could basically play blind folded.

In many aspects, BG actually resembles a old-school JRPG. But instead of grinding through random battles, you grind through random quests and then the game becomes too easy. But even then it's too time consuming.

I like both - I enjoyed BG2 as I said originally. But it was definitely a step between BG1 and say Dragon Age 2. More linear quests, less exploration, etc.

Solid choice, especially with MGO.

It's all just gossip

If you hate Serious Sam, that means you hate fun.

bg2 is vastly different from bg1 and improves on nearly every aspect of it. its not terribly difficult in itself and for that mods were made to make it so. install tactis and SCSII, good luck getting out of the starting dungeon.

Skyrim and Fallout 4.

Theres a difficulty slider you retard.

I agree SS is great.
>P.S. pun not intended

Gets blown out of the fucking water by Planescape in terms of story and ID in terms of gameplay.

Was fine though. Now BG1, THAT is a REAL kusoge.

You can tell by this list that the majority of Sup Forums are in their mid 20's.

The only thing the slider does it increasing the increasing the damage you receive and increasing the health of the enemies.

Clearly it makes the game more difficult, but not more fun. The only thing this will succeed is in increase the number of quick loads and make the game even more of a drag. Specially considering how much this game relies on RNG for combat. Still brain dead mechanical gameplay.

Might as well play with one guy or no armor/items. Those a more interesting challenges. If the enemies actually used their fucking brains at harder difficulties, it'd be nice.

It does more then that, and clearly you never turned it up which is why your defending your shit experience.

Normal difficulty, which is what you played, enemies do 75% of what they should, and you always max out your hit points every level up.

Essentially you played on Easy mode.

CORE RULES and higher, your party members can perma-die and there is friendly fire.

iwd just throws hordes of brainless mobs at you, it has more combat but of poorer quality and less memorable bosses. pst has one of the best stories ever written for a video game but in turn has an abysmal gameplay. bg2 is a typical yet very well polished and comprehensive dnd campaign and it has improved on bg1 in nearly every aspect.

Lol you played on a difficulty where the enemies where themselves nerfed.

You didn't even play it on CORE RULES, ie. actual proper rules.

Fucking autist.

if you sleep on higher difficulties, you almost always die in dungeons.

On Normal, you can generally sleep to full health all the time

You played babies easy mode, try again.

You're baiting but this is actually true for Skyrim.
Nobody except a few underaged memelords on Sup Forums dislike Skyrim. Fallout 4 on the other hand...

You should have posted a blank space, because everything is hated, literally hated, by someone.

mfw i stumbled into that secret mage cabal that the staff of the magi is in.

That shit was super exciting

>Diablo 2
>HL2
>WC3

fuck no awful game

DoW is literlly the only good game on that shitty list, the others are utter shit and i wouldn't play even if i had a gun to my head.

There's plenty reason people could hate that game, even though it's fantastic. Even I have to admit that the Underdark chapter falls miles and leagues behind everything else in the game in terms of writing, does offer some nice challenges gameplay-wise however.

>Diablo 2
Shit

>HL2
Shit

Planescape: Torment's writing is pretentious as fuck, if you like feeling smart for being able to recognize and understand a big word or concept then all the more power to you but some of us actually like -playing- a game where the gameplay isn't absolute horrid garbage.

Reminder that normal difficulty is what the game was balanced for and is the -default- setting when starting the game.

>substituting bait for more bait
Clever girl.

I can understand not liking Diablo if you don't like hack n slash games, but not liking HL2 is more than a meme, it's cringe in its purest form.

It's not just a god tier game, it's the second greatest game mankind has created after HL1.

Game was balanced around core rules setting actually.

I sincerely hope this is bait and people dont legitimately think like this

Did BG2 even have normal difficulty? I thought that was an addition in the enhanced edition for morons.

comfiest feels from this one

>and you always max out your hit points every level up.
As it should be, RNG stats on levelup is pure cancer

It had a whole difficulty slider, you big silly. Not that it meant much. The fights in BG2 were heavily exploitable in general.

FAGGOTS

I never played the original, only the EE. I did play original BG though, and iirc that started at core rules and the difficulty only went up from there.

There were 6 options, I believe. Core was in the very middle. On easy your characters never permanently died, for instance. No friendly fire either.

you're underestimating the CoD generation

Huh, guess I just defaulted to core and didn't notice the lower ones.

...

I know you are baiting, but you should still neck yourself.

I wish I could play this but I can't bring myself to power through BG1 first

...

are there any other games like this one?

Would never see a CRPG with box art like that now.

torment is fine, you seem more pretentious than it without even using big words

>torment is fine, you seem more pretentious than it without even using big words
I take that back, pretentious is kind of big

I enjoyed many different adventure games as a teen, but I never felt compelled to seek one that was similar to TLJ; though the game did hold special significance to me due to its unique atmosphere.

Feeble Files was another cleverly written, tough as nails, and funny adventure gane that I absoluted loved as a kid, but it was naturally quite a different experience compared to TLJ - aside from both being adventure games that is.

Indeed, box art died a long time ago.

You might be shocked, but every fps that came after HL2 was LITERALLY based on the mechanics and gameplay of HL2.

You need to be 18 to post on this board.

I wish it had been remade in a non shitty engine. Like don't change the mechanics , I'm tired of this single player balancing fad (bg did wizards the best holy shit) but Everytime I try to replay this after fourty hours I want to kill myself because of the engine.

You're joking, right? HL's was pretty much a run of the mill FPS experience with physics puzzles. That was its gimmick. All those quake, doom, far cry sequels and whatnot were nothing like the gimmicky theme of HL.
