Baldur’s Gate 2. There’s no game I’ve played through more often. BG3 is a very fun successor, but Larian’s writing can’t hold a candle to classic Bioware.

I honestly wish Larian had just left the IP alone and done a standalone D&D game. There is absolutely no narrative reason for any of the tie-ins and callbacks, it was literally just a case of wanting the brand recognition for better marketing and then shoehorning in some old fan favourites and calling it a day. Seeing Sarevok and Viconia as they were in BG3 just makes me sad.

It was still pretty inherently tied to Bhaal under Baldur’s Gate, so it made enough sense to have continuity.
