The game may have come out eleven years ago, but many PC gamers still consider Baldur's Gate II: Shadow of Amn to be BioWare's finest work.
Assuming that to be the case, how does the soon-to-be-released Dragon Age 2 stack up against the company's best game ever? Apparently, quite well.
To make up for the Baldur's Gate 3 release window delay on Xbox, fans of the RPG franchise can expect Baldur's Gate 1 and Baldur's Gate 2 to drop on Game Pass.

A few tips for BG1&2..
#1: Press the little red diamond thing. That's quick loot and will show you whatever is on the ground, including the contents of corpses. Saves a million clicks and is the difference between an unbearable looting experience and a somewhat tolerable one.
#2: Go into the menus and enable some autopause settings. Particularly for when you spot an enemy or a trap. Probably also on character death.
#3: Crowd control is more OP in these games than in any other RPG I've ever played in my life. Fear it. Abuse it.
#4: Be patient. These are not experiences to be rushed and would be better skipped than skimmed.
At this point lore/recap videos are probably better if you are interested in BG3 but haven't played the originals.

That's a fairly ballsy statement they just made, there. BioWare does a lot of great work, Mass Effect was a great game, but I'm not sure how I feel about DG2. I'll be keeping my eye on it, though, if only for this statement.
Bold claim, Bioware.
You's best deliver >:(
that's quite a claim. hopefully, it's because he knows they've got quite a game on their hands.
BGII is Bioware's best game
kinda believe him to be honest. If they can clean up the combat, bump up the production values of sound and visuals, and keep the writing the same or improve it, it will be. DA 1 just had too many "i wish they did ___" moments.
But without the game kicking your ass in the first 10 minutes like BA2 did, I don' know if it will be able to top it.
