1.: Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn:
Released in the Golden Age of PC Gaming at the end of the 1990s, Baldur’s Gate 2 was everything that its predecessor had been. Only better streamlined and bigger. Baldur’s Gate 2 was set in the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons setting of the Forgotten Realms, your basic run of the mill mom and pop fantasy with dwarves and elves, but stood out for the sheer size and the extremely high quality of its production. Baldur’s Gate 2 featured a plethora of voiced characters, an incredible number of big and small questlines to follow and a game world and overall narrative structure that should be highly influential for tons and tons of other roleplaying games in the following years.
After Baldur’s Gate 2 it took years until the PC gaming environment returned to similar heights again. Released in the year 2000 it came at the peak of PC gaming, just before the release of the Xbox generation of consoles that would change the face of gaming forever.
