I like weapons with character that stay useful for a long time.
The Flail of ages in Baldur's Gate 2.
The two-handed axe Cloudcleaver in Morrowind.
The revolver Lucky in Fallout New Vegas….

The usual myths abound.
The EU bureacracy that is supposed to be so bloated employs about as many people as Malmö municipality (population 300 000).

I always thought the complaints about the ending drama queen-ish. Was it underwhelming and not up to the standard of the games? Sure as hell, but the games were a blast to play until the return to…

I stopped playing the game as the innovative magic system drove me nuts. Drawing runes with a mouse in real time was not my cup of tea… If there is a mod that get rid of this (unlikely as it is a…

I prefer to dual class from figher 7 or fighter 13 (or was it 14) due to the extra attacks and extra HP. This makes clerics viable melee fighters without buffs and also allow mages to dish out melee…

There is one issue with multiclass casters though. XP needed for an extra level is constant at high levels IIRC, so they will end up much lower level than single class casters. AFAIK we are talking…

I didn't know about the mods, might check them out. I have an old collection with all the goldbox titles, and playing without re-memorisation is damn annoying.

I agree, the racial level caps is a serious design flaw (that luckily doesn't exist in the Krynn series nor later AD&D games such as EotB, Darksun or Baldur's Gate). It doesn't matter much in PoR,…
