Baldur's Gate 2

Baldur's Gate 2 cRPG

Welcome to my cRPG blog on Baldur's Gate 2, a cRPG Definition developed by BioWare Corp. in 2000, built on the Infinity Engine. Baldur's Gate 2 is the direct sequel to Baldur's Gate 1, also developed by BioWare.

As of 2024 I have published over 300 hyperlinked articles and 250k words on classic Baldur's Gate 2. In length the equivalent to a few novels, no one in the world has written more on Baldur's Gate 2 than I have over the game's 25 year aka ¼ of a century history.

Note also that my commentary is supported by 500 screencaps and 200 infographics, all based on the original Baldur's Gate 2.

My Baldur's Gate 2 commentary employs the most refined, authentic and sophisticated Baldur's Gate language that has ever been communicated in commentary; a language that was naturally acquired over two decades of playing Baldur's Gate; a language that forever eludes charlatans and mutt-level wikis and subreddits.
