Baldur's Gate 3 coop, we're in Act 2. For some reason, my friend started a fight, inside the throne room at Moonrise Towers, while surrounded by 20 enemies, half HP and no spells. We died, and because he hadn't saved in an hour, we have to do some stuff again.

Then I finished the Solasta: Crown of the Magister - Palace of Ice DLC. It's definitely the weakest campaign for me (base game and two DLC). The final dungeon was also pretty disappointing, but I liked the very final decision you had to do.

Then I started the Baldur's Gate - Siege on Dragonspear DLC. I played the base game a year ago for the first time, and I think the game didn't age well at all, and this DLC doesn't improve things. I'm close to the end, but I really don't like how it's playing out right now, and I don't care about the story at all.

The SoD expansion was made by Beamdog some 15 years after BG1 was released. It's admirable that they tried getting the original voice actors back, but otherwise the team behind BG 1&2 (and ToB) had nothing to do with it. I couldn't get through it, and I have a hard time supporting the Enhanced Editions as is due to Beamdog inserting their fanfiction into them as well - though I recognise they've been instrumental in revamping the engine and bringing the games to a new generation of people.

Yeah, I knew it was released later and that at least the Steam Reviews are only mixed. Still, I didn't think it would be such a waste of time.
