Forgotten Realms: Baldur's Gate - Dark Alliance II

A fine slash and cast epic of a game and great addition to the Forgotten Realms series. Following on directly from the first Dark Alliance this game sees you take the part of one of five warriors coming to the town of Baldur's Gate in search of coin and glory, only to find that the threat from the first game has already bean defeated. You encounter a caravan master that provides work for you amongst other things. It is from here that you are drawn into another plot that threatens the Realms. You choose your character from one of five, a human barbarian, a dwarf rogue, a dark elf monk, a human cleric and a moon elf necromancer. Each character has a unique look and fighting style and has their own personal missions for you to accomplish along with the main ones in the game, completing these will unlock new abilities and skills. Very well planned game but can become tedious after awhile. 4 out 5 *'s
