This is a collection of quotes about Infinity Engine
game mods (released mods or betas, so any working versions).
These quotes were taken from several gaming/modding websites
and message boards.
Most of these comments from players are rather positive. However
-- as we know -- every mod has bugs and other things we don't
like in them, but here we are trying to show the advantages
and positive features of these (popular) works. With the eyes
of players themselves.
Do you want to submit an entry for your mod? Send to us with the quote, a link to the page where
the quote is located, and finally with a link to the mod's
homepage and a short description of the mod.
New
tactical challenges and enhanced battles, brand new species
of monsters, new encounters, improved strongholds, new
item upgrades and a fixpack to amend many errors and flaws
of the original game ... and more.
Quotes(9):
Everyone
should play this mod. IMO the level of quality in it far,
far, far, FAR surpasses that of any mod I've ever played.

No no, I did not like IA V3. I actually fell in love with
it! Really! I never thought I could have more difficult
fights than my old mods offered, but there it is! And
with less cheese&cheat, and more quality scripting
too! Source
I have been hesitant to play IA due to difficulty; however
after many attempts at other AI mods, you just can't beat
the stability of IA.Source
I
can not congratulate Sikret enough for such a wonderful
mod. I think IA is the best thing to happen to BG2, I
dare say it is even much more interesting than its expansion,
ToB! Source
I
definitely recommend the Improved Anvil mod. Anyone who
is looking for a mod which adds a lot of challenging encounters
and content to the game (much more than the Tactics or
other similar mods do) should give it a try.
The improved enemies (especially mages) use very intelligent
scripts and the AI is improved a lot (Sikret has made
an excellent job).Source
The
AI improvements introduced by this mod are excellent.
Source
Improved
Anvil is a nice mod (for me) which really enhances the
overall gaming experience. Source
I
really love the new powerful critters, and especially
the new loot. It really makes the game feel brand new
again, with the sense of anticipation and discovery. Source
Flirt
Packs add new interludes, discussions to Aerie, Jaheira,
Viconia and Anomen in Baldur's Gate 2 Shadows of Amn and
ToB.
Quotes(1):
The
flirtpacks merely allowe you to play the romance the way
you want to. You have the option to grab your girlfriend's
breasts (or boyfriends crotch) every 5 minutes as well,
but it doesn't mean you'd *have* to do that. Take it easy,
or go wild, whichever way suits you best.Source
Quest
mod for Baldur's Gate that adds about 1.5 hours of bonus
gameplay. A BG1Tutu and a BG Trilogy edition is also available.
Quotes
(4):
Just like to say I also enjoyed
In Candlelight very much. It's quite difficult but nowhere
near as hard as BG2's Tactics mod...[..] Source
Great job! I really enjoyed the
mod [..]. I'm glad to see that this hasn't died and
eagerly await the next installment. Source
It had some hard battles (Especially
the tatooed guy!) in stock for my solo F/M/T and I enjoyed
it thouroughly. [..] The fact that you got voice sets
is also a major plus.[..] Source
In
my opinion this is 1 to 2 hours of BGing at it's best!
This adventure is full of surprises, plot twists, and
occasional humor. Durring your investigation of the Grey
Clan you will meet some interesting NPC's with original
and sometimes humorous sound sets. [..] In short: A very
well done, somewhat combat orrientated mod that I'm sure
you will find yourself playing over and over again, at
least until chapter 2 is released. Source
Imoen
will romance any PC, regardless of gender or race, so
any player will be able to enjoy it without being tied
to race requirements...
Quotes(1):
Imoen
Rom adds greatly to one of the most important characters
in the game. Before the mod she is about as bland as plain
bread. Now she actually has a personality! Source
Adds a new druid kit to the game and then applies it to
Cernd. As a result, the player can choose an Auramaster
PC, or just let Cernd join the party (or both). This mod
requires TOB.
Quotes(1):
With
the Auramaster the mage spells really spice things up
for me as well. I never finished a game before with a
Druid pc but now I'm confident that this time I will.Source
Bottomless bags of holding, no more "You must gather
your party before venturing forth...", wear magical
armor and magical rings at the same time, and many many
more...
Quotes(1):
i
like the ease of use mods - lets me take cernd and turn
him into the ultimate fighting machine! (perhaps overpowered,
but hey, being a werewolf is his specialty). Source
A neutral good human sorcerer NPC, with original voicing,
portrait, romance option for Imoen or for a female protagonist.
Tons of interactions with all other party members.
Quotes(3):
Kelsey - He is by far the best NPC
mod ever made!Source
He's
a human sorcerer and IMO the best unofficial NPC for conversation,
voice acting and background. He isn't some demi-god kensai
25 dex wielding two +6 shortswords...
Source
[..]
didn't mention any NPC mods - the best of those which
I've tried is Kelsey... Source
Solaufein the drow, in your party. Two banters with each
other party member, romance with your protagonist (regardless
of his/her race or gender) and other, interesting features.
Quotes(2):
Solafein - He's #2 on the list of
best NPC mods ever.Source
Solaufein
- Good mod, but it's lame how you have to practically
finish the game before you get him. Luckily I have ToB.
Source
With BG1Tutu, you can play your Baldur's Gate (and Tales
of the Sword) with the BG2 engine. It also make kits available.
Quotes(3):
For BG, I would say the Tutu mod--all
the BG content with the conveniences of the BG2 engine.
It also has the benefit of several mods designed only
for BG with Tutu...Source
I
just used BG1Tutu to play a F/T, and it was great fun.
Source
I'm
playing through it now and there are issues, albeit not
overwhelming if you know what to look for/be wary of.
An otherwise excellent mod. Source
5 new herbs, 15 potions you can brew: healing, poisonous,
acidic, fiery etc. Some potions should be thrown at someone
than consumed. Store, enchanted weapons and more. Compatible
with BG1Tutu.
Quotes(3):
Nice, it's great that someone still
makes mods for the best game ever made. Downloading
now .Source
Cool
mod [..] wow that herbalists bodyguard is tough .
Source
I've
been playing this and I think its a great idea.Source
The BG2 version of the Herbs Mod. Adds 5 new herbs and
15 potions you can brew: healing, poisonous, acidic, fiery
etc. Some potions should be thrown at someone than consumed.
Store, enchanted weapons and more...
Quotes(2):
Right on, a mod that stretches between
BG1 and BG2. Now there won't be that weird feeling about
having something in BG1 but not in BG2. Source
I'm
not too fond of how I get the herbs, but I just love the
array of potions I can get from them. It's a really interesting
addition to the game.
Source
This mod is for BG1Tutu. It expands
on the depth of character and levels of interaction with
the NPCs from the BG1 game. NPCs in your party now have
banters with the PC, with each other, and small side-quests
of their own.
Quotes(2):
The other day, when I saw the screen
shot of Branwne's first encounter with Tranzig after
being stoned, I almost cried. I had been having a horrible
day and seeing that made everything better. Source
Maybe
you should try Tutu next time - it's great, esp when combined
with BG1NPC Project (new banters for all, yippee!).Source
Kido is a chaotic evil jester, guided by the visions he
receives from Cyric, the god of death, evil, madness,
deception and lies.
Quotes(2):
You
weren't kidding around when you said Kido was 'evil'.
Checked out some of his banters with Aerie, Edwin, Korgan
and Mazzy (especially with respect to the 'birds &
bees' talk) and this guy sure has a warped sense of humor
and I think he can out-pervert Lilalcor the talking sword!
Source
If you are up to one of the most challenging and entertaining
fights ever put into a computer game, then you are encouraged
to download this mod. It isn't recommended for people
who are brand-new to the Baldur's Gate games or computer
games in general.
Quotes(1):
Curse
you and thank you for making this mod, Rastor! Source
This mod adds one humourous quest to the BG2 game, and
was created to commemmorate the one-year anniversary of
the Gibberlings Three modding community.
Quotes(1):
Since
it hasn't been mentioned elsewhere in this post, I feel
obligated to throw in a word on the Gibberlings Three
Anniversary Mod. I just finished the recently released
version 3, which turns a great mod into an almost perfect
mod. Very balanced, very funny, gives a great deal of
depth and atmosphere to the inns around Athlatka and definetly
a "must-install" as far as I'm concerned. Source
