Baldur's Gate 1 is in ever sense of the word, a masterpiece. Perhaps it's just nostalgia for me and the hours upon hours I threw at the game and never grew tired of any of it's finer points. I'm not one to write long reviews, so let me just say that if you count yourself as a true fan of this genre and happen by some freak chance to stumble upon this game, do yourself a huge favor and just buy. Enjoy it!
Soo, apparently I need 100 words...I could not give this game a 10/10 completely since no game is perfect and the second one in the series is just slightly better.
