reviewed Baldur's Gate on April 23, 2012Dedicated with affection to Turbiales, Khanach, Eldamihr, Hougort, MyD69, Mr. Galamomd, Frau Anja Schubert, Monkey Monkey, The Master's Screen and all the people who accompanied Turbiales in bioware's R.P.G. Video Game gameplay thanks for making me happy and be my Earendil light in dark times. (unfortunately only for people who understand Spanish. I joined Turbiales in video 16 of Baldur's Gates II specifically the chapter titled the eye you don't see).
Ladies and gentlemen announced that this review is the Christmas review and that it will follow up when I write the review "Baldur's Gates Shadows of Amn" will be the last reviews of this year 2020. In reality, the two reviews have to be read as a single review, and they have only been divided into two, because they are two different books. Ladies and gentlemen announced that this review is the Christmas review and that it will follow up when I write the review "Baldur's Gates Shadows of Amn" will be the last reviews of this year 2020. In reality, the two reviews have to be read as a single review, and they have only been divided into two, because they are two different books. As you can see The Goodreads users didn't like it, however, I don't think it's fair to lynch Philip Athans like we have and call him a bad writer. I've only read you two novels, and I think it's unfair to judge you for that. He already said it in his wonderful book, almost as interesting as his novels the writer Orson Scott Card in addition to countless topics including how to write sci-fi stories, and what a writer should do when he manages to publish, and how he should behave, which to me is almost the most important thing of all. In this book Orson Scott Card talked about the difficulties of fictionalizing or turning a successful film into a novel. Something, which is very beneficial, but that imposes great limitations on the author, and that must deal with two problems, can hardly go beyond the film, and has to please fans, which is almost impossible and you must admit one thing and is that adapting a video game and turning it into a book, or a novel is even more complicated (in fact not always great novels don't always become great novels. Sometimes great films of lousy books have been made), and I know very few writers who have succeeded. I've seen writers, who I'd really liked to crash and fail to play a great video game. In my case I must admit that I am very demanding, and that I hope that the adaptation of the video game did not stay far behind the video game in question and it is not usually the case, because I believe that games have their language, as cinema has. I know of a writer who's made it. Her name is Miyuki Miyabe he writes like angels, and also treats his characters with great humanity by confronting them with great moral dilemmas. That's why I would recommend if you're going to make a Baldur's Gates novel to be commissioned from Miyuki Miyabe, because you have experience such as "Brave Story" which to me is the best modern fantasy novel I've ever read, and I've read almost 2200 books and it's heavily influenced by the Dragonquest game saga (in fact my big dream would have been that Square and Bioware, now Larian would have participated in a joint game, but I don't think I see it because they're different companies), he also wrote, but I haven't been able to read it "Icco the Castle in the Fog" in this field. so he has extensive experience I recommend it, to Larian, TSR , Dungeons and Dragons .Dungeons_Dragons or Wizard of the Coast to novelize Baldur's Gates III, or remake baldur's Gates I and Baldur's Gates 2 Shadows of Amn novels, in fact I would love to have novels like the ones they do in Dragonlance and novel the lives of Baldur's Gates 1 and Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn characters. I think, unlike Athans' novel, what has made Baldur's Gates a timeless classic in the great video game it is. It's just that it's a game, that tells a story that comes to our hearts, while Philip Athans' novel is the work of a simple craftsman and that he hasn't proven to be very right-handed in this case. This year, as video game fans will know, the Baldur's Gates III video game was to appear and I wanted to pay a great tribute to the entire saga. I in my youth was a great lover of video games and played some, my favorite being the saga of Baldur's Gates games. I remember that the computer I bought it in 1996, when I was in 1st BUP and when I bought the first baldur's Gates video game I did not have the megas of RAM to play it and I had to wait for my second computer, to play it in conditions. I made a lot of mistakes, but in the end I managed to pass it to me, because I loved this game marked me. We can say that my favorite game was Baldur's Gates II Shadow of Amn, but the game that changed my life and made me a man was Neverwinter Nights, but not the game itself. But the possibility to be able to play the stories themselves with other people on a server. At first this review was going to be dedicated to my friends of Eternam /Rebellion to all the players who preceded me, those who agreed with me, and those who happened to me, but Turbiales has certainly been the one who has allowed me to enjoy these wonderful games again and above all and most importantly to be able to enjoy and share it with him. I must confess one Turbial thing and its gameplays of Bioware games have been one of my few joys this year, which has not been good for me not only because of the coronavirus, but because my parents got sick, an aunt of mine died of an ALS-like illness, my friend Kunniotani's grandmother, my friend Professor Manuel Alfonseca has twice been bullied with hernias, and now she has undergone a cataract operation, nor have the policy news helped that she had been like a mother to him died, my sister, although she approved the opposition as a lab technician did not get a place, and I continue to look for a paid job. So my only consolation has been my family, my religious beliefs, my goodreads friends, and these gameplays. I wasn't the only one. A boy watching the Turbiales videos picked up the coronavirus, and he had a bad prognosis, and the only thing that made him happy were the Turbial videos, so that they can see and appreciate the great human size of Turbiales. In 2007 let's say, something happened to me. You don't have to blame someone, but only myself I did something wrong with the best intention, but it was a bad thing. I forced a person into something I didn't want to do and lost it forever it was my fault and I decided to stop playing video games forever. I knew I wanted to do something special this year because of the appearance of Baldur's Gates 3, but I couldn't do it. So I did like the parents who failed, but realized that their children were more talented than them. I lived someone else's life and dreams. I wanted to enjoy Baldur's Gates I again, and II, but without me playing it. So I started by liking Baldur's cell phone and my cell phone showed me a turbial game at Baldur's Gates I. I think the Durlag tower I couldn't play, because there weren't many copies of Baldur's Gates the Sword Coast expansion and I saw Turbiales at Durlag's Toreon, and I saw that I had dedicated a series of videos to Baldur's Gates and saw that it was my chance. The great thing about Turbinal games is that you can comment on them, and this one was assisted by several players, the most important being Khanach, whose knowledge of the Bioware saga was immense. Initially I stayed out of it during the viewing of his Baldur's Gates 1 games and the Siege of Dragonspear expansion. In fact, I intend to talk about Baldur's Gates 1 and The Siege of Dragonspear expansion, which could not be novelized by Philip Athans, because it appeared this decade, to fill the gap between Baldur's Gates 1 and Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn its continuation, because there are so many issues to explain, and things that did not clear up between game and game and took advantage of the void to put in a new adventure covering those gaps. I'll dedicate an annex to Siege of Dragonspear because of how big this review is. . But going back to Turbiales gradually I was affectionate, first for his integrity, and for how well he guided his characters. I thought he was a very honest and honest man. In addition, he is a great roler and an encyclopedia. It's not the same as the game being commented on by someone who has no idea about Dungeons and Dragons (this happened to me with neverwinter Nights videos that the person commenting on them was hateful. He said tacos, profanities, and got angry every two by three, apart from killing for no reason. Turbial in the videos I've seen him, even one in which he went with a group of evil characters, I never act with cruelty or arbitrariness. Well, I admit she got rid of Dynaheir, because if you took her out of the Minsc group, she'd go with her so she had to kill her so she could stay with Minsc and kill Elf Hair to grab her scroll holder but didn't perform any more evil action). (I hang it at first so you can see it all, because this review is long and Goodreads will only allow me to get the first four pages into the review. I initially directed him by sharing work with Khanach from baldur's Gates II 16th video in the eye he doesn't see and I was with him until the last video of Icewind Dale 2 Isair and Madae. Anyway and returning to Baldur's Gates the edition I played was obsolete and another edition called Baldur's Gates Enhanced was created that included graphic improvements, and expansions. Some like Coast of the Sword came in very limited quantities. Another advantage of Enhanced is when collecting items from the ground, they are no longer collected from the corpses, but all the objects are together. In addition, three new characters were introduced, the wild maga elf Neera, the human monk of Selune Raasad and the semi-orque Dorn Il Kahn. These characters were not in the original version of Baldur's Gates and were not in Philip Athans' novel. Baldur's Gates I, Siege of Dragon Spear, Baldur'sw Gates II Shadows of Amn and depending on whether you take the characters can appear in Throne of Bhaal the expansion of Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn, which also includes the Watcher's Tower. From Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn joins a new character Hexxat which is a vampire thief. Each character will have a quest, which is continued in the following episodes. However, perhaps with the exception of Neera none of the characters, despite the advantages they have been given are interesting enough. Neera has a mission to escape Thay's Red Wizards (an organization of evil wizards) and find her master Adoy. Mission that will be completed in Siege of Dragon Spear so you will be awarded a new mission at Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn. Rasaad must find his brother and take revenge on his sustractor Alorgoth and this will keep him busy until Throne of Bhaal and Dorn will take revenge on his band, and in Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn will perform a lot of misdeeds. In his favor he is the only character who possesses a force of 19, and a high charisma. Whoever played the Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game will know that there are three types of Good, Neutral, and Evil alignments. you can be legal, true and chaotic. The most beneficial would be the legal good, and the most evil would be Evil Chaotic. In between they would be neutral good, chaotic good, legal neutral, neutral true, chaotic neutral, and then would be legal malignant, neutral evil and chaotic neutral. Once we have counted the alignments we can talk about Baldur's Gates is the story of an orphan raised in a monastery called Candelero, which is very reminiscent of a monastic order. Here the main character whose name is Abdel Adrian (by the way, Abdel Adrian is a character who has been incorporated into the story of Forgotten Realms, I will already hang a link of data from his life in the criticism of Baldur's Gates II Shadows of Amn). There are prophecies that particularly baffle the community that has welcomed you. They are the prophecies of a monk known as Alaundo, who prophesied of the chaos that Bhaal God's sons would cause of murder. As they say in baldur's Gates brilliant prologue you have been raised as an adopted son by a wizard of great power, who has found refuge on the walls of this monastery. Where raised by telling you great stories of heroes, but there's something your own story hasn't told you. The story begins when Gorion proposes to make a long journey to a meson called the Friendly Arm Friend (One of the disadvantages of enhanced is that the wonderful dubbing in Spanish has disappeared and is doubled again in English. You can download the dubbing and spanish translation, if you go to the Clan of the An, but it can have flaws and cause failures in the game, but it is worth hearing the characters in Spanish, because one of the good things that Spain has is that it has the best dubbers in the world). I would strongly advise the President of Larian Swen Vincke (to whom I would like to send this criticism). That allows the user to decide the language. Let the player decide in Spain whether he wants to hear the voices of the characters in Spanish, or in English. I think he does follow this advice, and he chooses some good dubbings, the sales of the game may improve. Sometimes spanish phrases are much better than in English. Turbiales himself read the dialogues, and he had a beautiful voice, and I must confess, that one of my vices is to make voices. Another thing, which I would like to mention is that my friends who are lovers of role-playing games are concerned, because translation rights are running out, and they fear that Dungeons and Dragons modules will not be translated into Spanish. Returning to the plot during the trip Gorion warns you, that if anything happens to him you will promise him that you will go to the reach of Friendly Arm and contact two of his friends named Khalid and Jaheira (two of the canonical characters of the game). With the canonical thing I mean. That you can go with any character, but the official version
