Thanks! Serg mentioned that earlier in the thread. I may give it a try. I just wonder whether I’ll be able to install mods with that configuration. I can’t play without SCS and Ascension

Noted! In BG2 Neera traps you in a cutscene in the Bridge District and then waylays you when you transition to another area. It’s super obnoxious. In BG1 you can avoid her, but then you miss out on the gem bag. You could CLUA one in, but I prefer not to do that. Rashad and Hexxat both...

I agree. They shouldn’t matter. They shouldn’t matter at all. And if they didn’t waylay me, like Neera, or draw me into insufferable conversations, like Rasaad and Hexxat, they wouldn’t. As is they are an intrusion and an annoyance. Some of the original NPCs initiated conversations with the...

Interesting! That's worth considering, at least. Thanks! I'm considering picking up a low end windows machine, actually. That would allow me to play the originals, and Fallout 1 & 2. It's not like I'd need a powerhouse machine to run any of those. Surely something super cheap would do the job...

Lucky you

As a Mac user the EE is my only option. That's why I use it. If I had a Windows machine I'd probably be using the originals. At the very least I'd appreciate a mod that would remove the EE NPCs. I may try Ctrl-Ying them on sight. That should work for all of them, with the exception of Neera.

Thank you for your perspective, Wise. After reading your comment I considered buying SoD. But then I spoke to Hexxat for 5 seconds and the urge died faster than a kobold in a Horrid Wilting

Strange as it seems, I don't even own Siege of Dragonspear. People seem to like it well enough, but I absolutely loathe all of the new EE content in BG1 and BG2, so I fear it will infuriate me. I should probably give it a try at least. A new EE adventure may bother me less than EE additions to...

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Copper Coronet After escaping the Chateau, Alena and friends made their way to the Den of Seven Vales, followed by the Adventure Mart. We sold the Mail of the Dead, along with some other items, and purchased the Ring of Air Control. With...

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Chateau It feels good to be home again. Back in Amn. Back in Athkatla. Back in Jon-Jon's psychotic playpen. Ok. Maybe not that last one. In fact, let's get the rock out of here. Fast. At some points in BG1 Alena's party felt unwieldy...

Noted! I haven't had a problem with that, historically. If you use Autopause: Spell Cast, and Autopause: Round End the game becomes very nearly properly turned based. I'm pretty sure something is off with this install.

You are correct: Anne is adorable, lol. Here she is, along with her intro post. She's eager to meet you. http://tavernrpg.com/threads/the-candlekeep-annex-rped-baldur%E2%80%99s-gate-no-and-low-reload-adventures.280/post-5337

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: Sarevok- Maybe It's Not All My Fault Throughout this run I've experienced minor, peculiar bugs. Portrait icons haven't always displayed. Mages have vanished for no reason. The inventory has behaved oddly, too. Every now and then our...

Did you find your niece's story? Her name is Anne Jansen. She's a big fan of yours.

Works for me 🙂

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Duchal Palace Those of you who know my solo play may be expecting a display of tactical acumen in this run. Don't count on it. Sure. It's possible that I'll eventually find my groove with this squad, but as of right now, I'm readjusting...

Good times! Kudos to Serg for hosting the old BioWare threads 🦸

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: Cloakwood Mines to Candlekeep- The Dukes, Part 1 In our last session Alena had her first encounter with her most fearsome foe: my inattentiveness. It was another lazy evening for yours truly. I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to play BG...

Understood. I’m asking because I, too, use a “reactive” approach. I’m just wondering why you had to change your gameplan and I didn’t. EDIT: I think I get it. Alia was a halfling. She delayed mage fights until her Claw enhanced saves were in the safe zone. As for Aurora, my elven beast master...

Yay! A new friend! Glad to have you! 😊
