Although I don't play video games often, I was thinking maybe I should look at buying one or two. I like flight games, but the few I've looked at don't seem to give any training on how to fly the plane and are really fast. I'd be okay with something from WW I just to get used to the controls.
Any recommendations?

I just installed (again), Baldur's Gate II EE from GOG.
Ofc, I know all the cheat codes, etc.

So... all my characters use two of these swords... (this sword was used by the game creators for debugging)

And all characters have their experience, levels and stats maxed out.
I also replaced the standard character portraits, with much better looking ones. :-)

Baldr000.webp

Note: Imoen, at this point in the game, has been captured, again, by Irenicus.
So I'm handling a few side quests before I go to rescue her.

On the right side, from top to bottom...
My character (stock portrait)
Minsc (and Boo) (stock portrait)
Jaheira
Nalia

I mean, if I have to listen to the inane dialog (except for Minsc and Boo), I might as well have something nice to look at...

Their stock portraits...

Replacement portrait pack...
Neural Portrait Pack



Ofc the main reason to play BG II Shadows of Amn etc., is Minsc and Boo. They're hilarious.

Hehhe, I played the original BG II as solo player multiple times, meaning I never joined any party even for a moment. Was very weak in the beginning but became a GOD in the end. Was completely unstoppable.

Love the game!

I like being unstoppable at the start. :D
I have them all on CDs too. And back in the day I played them all... straight.
After a while though... the "grinding for dollars" gets to be a pain.

I have all the Baldur's Gates and all the Icewind Dales.
And... Planescape Torment and Divine Divinity (the only good Divinity game).

And because they're all GOG... they just install and work. :cool:
Everything except Divine Divinity, has a character editor.
For BG1 and IWD1... I also have the codes for all the "best normal stuff".

The Killsword works in BGII EE and Planescape Torment EE
In Icewind Dale 2... the gear used by the testers is the Armageddon Blade and Armageddon Chainmail.

For Divine Divinity there's an item editor... so in that game I just made my own debugging gear.

Divine Divinity... (I think you have to play this... solo)
And, as per usual, I have my character running around kicking butt in her underwear. :D

In all the other Divinity games you either have to have a cohort, or the worlds aren't... open.

I'm currently playing Compiling Shaders: The Game... I mean, Silent Hill 2: Remastered.

The atmosphere is spot on. Like the original, as far as I can remember of the original, that is, it's a linear affair with little enemy variety, dead ends, and lots of inaccessible doors, but I still find myself nervously excited to see what's around the next corner. I'm honestly having a good time with this one.

On a side note. I've found that temporarily disabling Windows Defender real-time protection speeds up the aforementioned shader compiling.

I just installed (again), Baldur's Gate II EE from GOG.
Ofc, I know all the cheat codes, etc.

So... all my characters use two of these swords... (this sword was used by the game creators for debugging)
View attachment 125841


And all characters have their experience, levels and stats maxed out.
I also replaced the standard character portraits, with much better looking ones. :-)

View attachment 125843

Note: Imoen, at this point in the game, has been captured, again, by Irenicus.
So I'm handling a few side quests before I go to rescue her.

On the right side, from top to bottom...
My character (stock portrait)
Minsc (and Boo) (stock portrait)
Jaheira
Nalia

I mean, if I have to listen to the inane dialog (except for Minsc and Boo), I might as well have something nice to look at...

Their stock portraits...

Replacement portrait pack...
Neural Portrait Pack



Ofc the main reason to play BG II Shadows of Amn etc., is Minsc and Boo. They're hilarious.

The BG games have their save files in the.... C:\Users\account name\Documents ...folder.


In the C:\Users\account name\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition ...folder, there is a portraits folder
And there's another portraits folder in the "save" folder.

I put the pics in both. I don't which one the game uses.
