Since we're enumerating:
The only IE game I didn't complete was PST. It's a brilliant game, I just don't like it's setting and can't get the feel of it.
The IE game I completed the biggest number of times was IWD2, definetly my favourite.
ToB I played only once, and can't remember much of it.
The rest I played a few times each, though most of them I didn't go to the end (often halfway through I think of a different character concept and start over.

Oh well like you said when it comes to reminiscing about games.

Finished and liked BG1+2 and sadly the first but not the latter ToB, IWD1+2

Finished and liked very much Fallout1+2, PST, Arcanum( One of my fav games when it comes to inovative storyline and setting)

About to finish ToEE and I think I can never play anything again that does not have attacks of opportunity, threat ranges, feats and intelligent multiclassing among many other things.

Yeah, after playing IE games and NWN ToEE makes you see that the real time aproach was not good for D&D mechanics....

Change your pause settings?

Although, not having played ToEE, I shouldn't really comment.

This is still not the same. You do not have clear initiative line in IE games. If you have 3 attacks per turn it's nigh impossible to attack different targets. You do not have thread range in IE games. Attacks of opportinuty even if implemented (at least in NWN) do no work in all situations they should. You do not have charge. Defensive casting. Coup de grace. and a thousand other options. And it's good you don't have them cause they'd make a game with no time unit (ie. turns) too confusing. This is why ToEE while having many, many faults is still jaw dropping.

Haven't finished NWN either. Not because it sucks, but because I get occupied by new game that get released.

I'm really having trouble figuring out why I'm included in this:

http://wiki.spellholdstudios.net/index.php?title=Talk:Discharger12

and even more confused that it is connected to this:

http://wiki.spellholdstudios.net/index.php?title=SHS_Wiki:About&oldid=148 by tomas.

...could someone explain? Jester and NiGHTMARE seem to also be involved.  :o

The history tab of the first link is empty.  As far as I can tell, none of the archived versions of the second link show any evidence of a connection.

I deleted the shite. That is the extend of my involvement in tomas' attempt at being funny and a racist c*nt at the same time.

I heard Kenny never even completed any of the BG games. Strange that the modding founder never completed the games.
My source came from his wife. He never did complete a game, even though he came close to Baldurs Gate 1.
