I have a pretty big problem. The last 9 or so games that i have bought havent been beaten. I play each of them for a little while and then go buy a new one. Its starting to feel like a waste cuz now i dont know which oones to start and beat. Usually i get stuck with something like picking a class that i like. Does anyone else have this problem. By the way the latest games that i got are:
1. Baldurs gate 2
2. Pool of Radiance
3. Warcraft 3
4. Medal of Honor: allied assault
5. Hitman 2
6. Morrowind
7. Wizardry 8
8. Arx Fatalis

Welcome to SYM, Gorgan.
No doubt in my mind for that question: BG2.

Might try Planescape: Torment, you know. It's extremely good, and more beatable than some.

Well, before voting for BG2, I see you have games from different genres there.
So, my question is: what genre is your fav? Which one do you prefer over the others?
Myself, I am an RPG diehard fan, so I'd start with BG2.
Once you choose a game, stick to it and swear to yourself you won't touch the other ones until you are done with it. That is why I advice you start with one which genre you like the most, this way it would be easier for you to stick to it until you have beaten it.

@Gorgan:
BG2 all the way.

BG2 all the way. | No disagreement with BG2. I just thought that since he'd tried that lot and not enjoyed 'em enough to finish...
Or maybe I'll just settle for being an evil git. Yes; that's more fun.

I like every game that i have gotten. The problem is more me then the games. I cant seem to make my mind up about anything when it comes to games. For example, in BG2 I must of played every class before i got bored of it. Its the same thing with morrowind. I love rpgs and the thought of roleplaying is so cool, but for some reason every rpg i have played has lacked in one or more elements (besides Star Ocean 2: The second Story for playstation, but that is a whole different story). Im the farthest with medal of honor so i think i will finish that off and then move on to an rpg. Which rpg should i play first out of my selection?
| I think our above posts pretty much sums up...

No, BS, fable hasn't paid me for this endorsement.

Well, much as I would love to break a trend, it must be BGII.
Everyone has said it, but there is a good reason - it's the best game.
I expect that, if you added the number of hours spent playing BGII by GameBanshee members together, you would probably have several lifetimes of playing...
So play it!
Perhaps dual-classing would be a good way to keep your mind in it...that way, you have a series of objectives to meet, and before you know it, you will be an unstoppable 20/20 maxed out Bhaalspawn machine of death....and an *aherm* skillful and dedicated roleplayer to boot. No doubt.
