Probably the most shocking thing from a time traveler of 2003 is to find that the Xbox 360, save the rrods, was an actually good product.

Where does it hurt?
drizzt's appearance in baldur's gate is the best thing that's ever happened in forgotten realms because he's the avatar of a writer and he's supposed to be super powerful and smart and handsome and equipped with ~magic weapons~ but you can kite him around that lake until he dies with no effort

"i am a ranger. i am also trained to run away from things i can't handle i think, i don't remember the books. but god DAMMIT i'm gonna catch the retarded gnome who keeps shooting me in the foot with arrows. if only i could figure out lakes"

he also hunts you down if you use his name

back when i could stomach the lf stormfront thread people were posting reviews of the drizzt books from white supremacy sites

with stuff like "he's one of the good ones" or "his skin being grey doesn't mean he's black"

His name is Vonar, and he is a Tengu, and you just find him standing around some cliffs and he's like "hey some drow were just around here" and you're like "yeah we're gonna gently caress them up" and he's like "okay I'll help" and he joins you.

You can also get a guy with a giant beard who talks like he's in all capital letters but isn't a dwarf, and there also IS a dwarf who was cursed by an aboleth and is all gross but you can cure him. Also there's a demon lady but I don't think she sticks around (I never recruited her because I read a walkthrough and knew what she was so we kicked her rear end).

Oh yeah and there's also a centaur.

A god drat centaur joins your party in this game. No other D&D game has done this.

Really, the only reason you recruit Drizzt himself is to equip his sweet-rear end swords and chainmail on someone else. Eventually he's forced out of your party when other drow kidnap him. Yes you have to loving rescue Drizzt Do'Urden.

and when you get to the city, you don't have to navigate it. it's just a map you can click on to go to the places you wanna, which i liked.

I seem to recall the dungeon design, or at least the part that's just plain Underdark rather than a specific locale, being pretty rear end. Just big mazes of repeating textures. Although I recall laughing my rear end off at osquips when running into them. But yeah, the city was okay, even though the drow houses were just rearranged copy-pastes, and I recall really loving the dwarven temple.

This was middle school and I barely knew what D&D was. The I got a Monster Manual and it described Galeb Duhr as uncommunicative or dull. gently caress that, that guy was neat.

All DnD games just can't help but have Drow in either. IWD 1 one of the main characters is a Drow, IWD2 also. Bg2 has so much Drow that you spend an entire chapter disguised as one so you can get raped by Matron Mothers and feel edgy amazingness that it is to be Drow.

tbh Duergar are better, dwarves with the autism taken up to 11
