Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast (1999 Video Game) User Reviews

Very good albeit a limited expansion.

I found this small expansion very entertaining even if it is more of a small addition to the original Baldur's Gate than an expansion. Within its limits I give it almost the highest points, because Bioware has added some incredible dialogues, interesting new areas and enemies. With The Tales of the Sword Coast Bioware could have added some more in my opinion which is why I don't give the highest points.

I gave a warning of some spoilers because of some info from the game: (more because it is required than because of some great spoiler).

There are some limits; this expansion adds some more to the original game, but does not add a different ending to the game, it's more of way to gather extra points and exploring some new areas and then go back to where you left for the Ulgoth's Beard Area.

The last enemy in the first quest has some interesting dialogue changes depending on how you answer him. There could have been an option for a different outcome of this quest which is one more reason to reduce the score.

Some other limits in the outcomes of the different quests reduce the overall score, even if I had quite a time with the greater part of this game.

Its Acceptable

This game is a little expansion to the 1st Baldurs Gate and i have got to say it isn't really much of a change. Its got a couple of small quests but i never wasted my time on it. But good if you want to reach a decent level for the further expansion BG2. But you get to go to durlags tower to get some decent loot,ulgoths beard to do quests there and werewolves island. i found that i didn't really pay much attention to the new sub quests but i just paid attention to the better leveling up thanks to being able to get 128 000 k. but i recommend it for anyone who wants to play BG through and thorough so its a *** stars from me and 1 good thing about it is that its cheap :D
