Does anyone else have have fond memories of Baldur’s Gate Dark Alliance (1-2) ? I wasn’t aware that the PC games existed back then but I adored the PS2 hack and slash games and I’ll always remember the Elfsong Tavern from BG:DA1 very fondly.

I do! Shame the third one was an abomination was never made.

Which was your favorite character to play? I always liked the elf sorceress from 1 and the moon elf necro from 2.

Lol, for a second there I was extremely confused and wondering what the hell you were talking about…and then I remembered they made a third one…or rather I mean, what? A third game? I wish!

I always played the dwarf in the first game but I also played the necromancer in the second game. Well, I also remember cheating myself Drizzt Do’urden for the second game and playing him…but usually the Necromancer haha.

Drizzt for you, Artemis Entreri for me. Good times.

Awesome! Good times indeed

I’ve been waiting to see another soul speak up about that franchise. They are for sale on PSN still. I think for like $30 a piece because they know they’re still great games.

I bought it so me and my girlfriend could play splitscreen (which no one seems to make anymore) and it was just as fun as I remember.

The sad thing is no real end of game content but that’s how those old school games were. Get your character all bad ass and just how you want them, then roll credits.

I still think of that tavern song too, and the gruff sounding trader in the second game, with the long white hair and beard “Whatever you need, you can find, Right-Here.” Something about the way he punches that “right-here” tickles me lol.

Awesome man! I hope I can get my wife to play it with me. But yea, it’s exactly how console games from these times were. No complaining from me though. Do you also still remember looking at the end game cinematic from BG:DA2 and having your imagination run wild as to what that cliffhanger ending might mean and being hype for whatever that ending might entail?

Lol, that brings back memories. That face is burned into my memory. It was always so hype to go back to him and looking for new armour and weapons. I still think those games were way better than they get credit for.
