@Gene:
That's awesome. I didn't realize your LP was your first ever playthrough of the game, but it makes more sense now. The first time I ever beat Book II, it took over a year of ingame days. Makes you wonder why the Taurax hadn't moved into Mistfell yet. They're not that big of a threat just ...

84-part? How long was each video? That's seams a bit extensive...
The LP itself started when YouTube only allowed ten minute uploads; later in the series I increased video length to fifteen minutes and near the very end I had longer videos than that.

Admittedly, the LP was one of my first and was ...

Oooooh my!

I'm pretty sure I've put more into Kickstarter in the past three months than I put into triple-A titles in all of last year. So glad to see these companies getting a chance to make the games they want to make.

Doubly glad that the games getting made are ones that I'll enjoy!

Played the heck out of the game when I was younger. Never could finish it though; mostly due to the time limit that kinda sneaks up on you.
I wasn't aware there was any kind of time limit, I hope thats not going to cause me a problem :(
From what I recall, the time limit was more than fair. The ...

I remember really digging the mutability of the magic system. The bard songs were good too!

There was actually a 'sequel' of sorts. It's more or less the same ...

Some of that stuff I wouldn't have a problem paying for as DLC (new weapon types or skill trees) so long as it was reasonably priced (like a couple bucks).

Other things, like the truly dark dungeons and extinguishable light sources, I think should be in the base game.

Overall, I wonder if all of ...

Just checked the demo out earlier today on Steam. I had fun with it, despite the demo supposedly being crazy buggy (I only saw one and it was a shader issue that didn't affect gameplay at all). Like llew silverhand, I don't think I'll be picking it up until the price has dropped, though.

Fathamurk was just added for the sake of difficulty? Fathamurk was about the Orakur.

I had no idea that was the case. Was it ever mentioned that it dealt with the Orakur in any of the previews or anything? I only ever got the vibe that it was a dungeon added for people who had really tough ...

When did you last play Book2? Cause there has been some added stuff put in lately, a new, really tough dungeon and stuff in the formerly empty zoo area, etc.
I finished my playthrough a few months after the Fathamurk update was released. Never really did anything pertaining to the mega-dungeon as ...

Depending on qualifiers my list of favorite RPGs tends to vary a good bit.

Counting games I've actually completed and only on the PC it'd probably look like so:
1. Lands of Lore
--- Westwood at its best; this is one of few games I try to play through every year. I love pretty much everything ...

Just finished Book II for the first time and I must say that it has been many, many years since I've enjoyed a role-playing game this much (probably since the days of the Baldur's Gate games). While the game was definitely rough in spots, it was a blast to tough it out and think of clever ways to ...
