Hey duder's. After years of getting sidetracked, I have finally bought Balder's Gate 1 & 2 from GoG and I was wondering if there are any mods that I should get that would make these a better play experience. I have been told to get the "Balder's Gate Trilogy" mod by some friends because it updates the original and makes it into one big game, which sounds awesome. Is there anything else I need to get or should I just play it how it was meant to be played?

I haven't played either since they came out so take this with a grain of salt; I wouldn't mod them too much, I remember them being pretty much perfect. The only mod I'd consider is the one that ports the 1st game's story to the second game's engine.

The only mod I would recommend is BGTutu, which places the first game in the second game's engine. You may want to wander around for a bit in BG1 unmodded for comparisons sake, but BG2 is much less punishing to early level characters and would probably be preferable to a first time player.

@discoviking: Thanks for the advice. They are all downloading now, I cant wait!
