So..um...this Baldur's Gate thing then...

Finally managed to get hold of it yesterday (Um...if you've got a map of nowhere, look at the middle - that's where I live http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif).

Does it matter how long I wait to go to Nashkel? I'm currently looking for that nasty cleric guy(bassilus, or something like that), 'cos I need the reward money - I've lost the two bad guys (um...they started attacking the lady that joined at the Friendly Arm Inn, and they died - but I didn't like 'em anyway, so I'm not bringing them back to life). Are there any consequences involved in hanging till I've got decent levels/armour/weapons before wandering off to Nashkel and the carnival?

And um...how long does this game take? I mean, 5 CDS!!!. Preferably to be answered by someone who's:
Working full time
Has a 16 month old child
Is doing a HNC in Business and Finance
Needs a life as well...

Um..we're talking in the years here, aren't we? http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

Hi m8,

As far as I know you could put the Nashkel Mines off for a while but personally I found it a lot easier than some of the quests to the sides of the map (bloody good luck with Basilius if you've only just started http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/shades.gif)... Listen to Khalid and Jaheira though - if they start requesting to go to the mines then you should go, I'm not sure whether they'll leave your party but I think they'll start complaining after a while...

How long does it take??? Probably as long as you want it to... I read somewhere (probably on here) that it takes about 100 hours and based on this and the time it took me to complete it first time through; each ingame day will eventually equate to the number of hours it takes...

Your best bet is to take a week off work and take your computer off somewhere away from noise or kids and you'll probably get it finished...

Cheers

Week off work??? Away from noise/kids??

Roflmao!!!

Even if I just had my assignments for college to do it'd be too much http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

Never mind - I'll just take me time over it.
