Baldur's Gate rambling...

Bar none, the most twinky combo in the game, the combination that allows you to play the most merry hell with the game balance and destroy all in your path...a thief and three potions of master thievery.

Am romancing the lovely (if vicious and touchy) Viconia, at the moment. And Aerie. And Jaheria. We haven't yet gotten to the point where they demand you choose, although the catfight quotient is becoming amusingly high. I'm going to choose Viconia, though. Although Jaheria's side quests are the most elaborate in the game, I /like/ Viconia, as bitter and arrogant as she happens to be. Plus, I really want to see if there's any good Solufein/Viconia/Protagonist chitchat. Amazingly enough, I haven't picked up any of the extra NPCs I installed, yet. I'm really enjoying the core ones. But I'm going to have to start making some hard decisions, soon. *sniffle*

It depends on when in BG1 we're at. For instance, early on, there's no problem in clearing the iron mines, or that stuff; but after you've visited Candlekeep for the 2nd time, it's really a matter of moving directly towards the conclusion.

(Not, it occurs to me, that I didn't have OTHER gripes... the doppelganger thing is one, but I've been holding out hope that it'll be explained by the end of BG1.)
