Publisher :. Interplay Entertainment. BioWare Corp. Release Date :. Macintosh , Windows. Perspective :. In this way, you'll be able to make the best equipment in the game even better, which can be almost as satisfying as actually using the new gear in action. The structure of the game perfectly preserves and even enhances the epic pacing of Baldur's Gate II. The expansion is split into main two parts--Watcher's Keep and everything else--and even though you can venture into the dungeon at almost any point, the main story branch of Throne of Bhaal is tightly focused.

Both aspects of the game are well done: Watcher's Keep is a huge, dangerous multistory structure for which "dungeon" isn't really an accurate description. After all, dungeons evoke dank, claustrophobic, mazelike corridors--but almost every square foot of Watcher's Keep bears something of interest, especially further in.

You'll encounter a host of interesting denizens trapped inside its ancient walls. As for the main story of the game, it successfully brings together the many plot points of the Baldur's Gate series, and it even brings back some characters you'd probably thought you'd seen the last of.

Much like in Baldur's Gate II, the game strikes a careful balance between making you role-play and making you fight. However, the fighting may be a bit better, as some of the role-playing seems superficial. You'll usually have a lot of dialogue options available in conversation, but often, all these options will still produce the same results.

Also, the conversations themselves skew toward revealing more about the plot than about the characters, such that the personalities and true motivations of the cast in Throne of Bhaal don't always come across. You may even find that the scripting in some of the non-interactive sequences is occasionally problematic. Fortunately, by and large, much like Watcher's Keep, most every part of every new area in the expansion is detailed. The new areas in the game are uniformly attractive looking, yet they're all highly distinct in their own right.

Plenty of background animation is used to make all these scenes seem alive rather than static. There's much more to be said about Throne of Bhaal. The new non-player character makes an outstanding addition to the main cast, and he's an extraordinary fighter to boot. The new wild mage character kit, whose chaotic magic will often yield surprising or catastrophic results, is a lot of fun to play, especially in multiplayer mode, when other human players might witness the consequences. Throne of Bhaal also boasts an all-new orchestral score that is simply stunning.

It matches the action and settings in the game, and it will enrich almost every moment of your playing time. Otherwise, the only real shortcomings you'll find in Throne of Bhaal are related to the game's use of the aging Infinity engine, which was used in all of its predecessors. Yet the game assumes you're familiar with how the Baldur's Gate games work, and as such, most any of the potential problems in the gameplay such as how combat invariably requires fits of pausing and unpausing as you reissue orders constantly can all be easily and naturally overlooked.

Though it'll challenge even the most dedicated fans, ultimately, much like Baldur's Gate II before it, Throne of Bhaal is essential for anyone who enjoys computer role-playing games. The overall level of quality found throughout the game exceeds even that found in Baldur's Gate II--perhaps even more so than last year's game, Throne of Bhaal is persistently rewarding and interesting. As such, if you've followed the Baldur's Gate series since the original game, you should be especially pleased with Throne of Bhaal.

At the end of the game, you'll look back over the course of the series and see how far it's come and how far you've come along with it. It finally gives a satisfying sense of closure to the story of the beloved role-playing series, which is what's most important. For example, if you have 4 party members and the quest experience is 25, the total experience rewarded is , But for a 6 member party the total will be , Quest experience by design has no left overs.

The disadvantage is that the quest always grants the same amount to a character. Doing a run with less party members or even solo will not give you more experience, whereas "normal" a.

For modded games with additional adventures or for the EET or BGT mods that enable one continuous game from the trilogy, the experience capping can be immersion breaking and consequently mods have removed or tweaked the tables to adjust them to their purpose.
