Or is BG2 still the gold standard of RPGs? I own Skyrim, Fallout 3, The Witcher 1 and 2, and Dragon Age, yet I am spending more time on BG2 than anything else.

I'd rate BGII at a 90/100.

Skyrim 50
Oblivion 55
Morrowind 75
Witcher 55
Fallout 3 40
Dragon Age 30
Mass Effect 45
KOTOR 40
NWN 55
NWN2 45
IWD 70
IWD II 65
Bards Tale 85


So yeah, It's the gold standard.

Same Here. Dragon Age is still a better game from others but BG2 always comes first.

I want BG2 EE to seal it for a lifetime.

It is, I can't count how many times I played trough it.
With and without friends, as full party on medium difficulty and as mage on the highest difficulty, all alone.
(The Mage couldn't take the final Irenicus fight, but Kangaxx and the twisted rune)

So much to discover and such a great story. Even without any mods.

The only game that came roughly close to it was NWN2 with some mods.

BG2 is the ultimate RPG. Richly detailed, expertly realized - I've been a fan since the beginning. Nothing else comes close.

I like how you did that here is mine:
