As I said, it was simply my initial experience and much of that can be attributed to my desire to begin with the first game and the overly lofty expectations I had. I'm not doubtful that I will come to enjoy the series in time, especially given that I shan't particularly miss exploration (I've got Morrowind for that).
The main thing I'm afraid of is gimping my character due to my inexperience with D&D. Many friends have tried to get me to play over the years, but the stat calculations and such frighten me. Is there a general character build you would recommend with which I'd be able to concentrate more on role-playing and less on mechanics?
Thank you very much for your thoughtful and helpful posts. The forum could use more people like you.
I thought BG1 was quite hard overall. I have one tip, especially for the beginning: use ranged weapons as much as possible (i.e. until the enemy is at melee range). Any amount of damage you can inflict before they can hurt you helps alot. It sounds very simplistic, but it worked for me. And only heal spells for the priest (druids and clerics).
Haha, I remember how I used to sit for an hour rolling for good stats. It's easier with rangers or paladins since they have higher minimum stat requirements. I think the bonus scaled pretty wierd with stats too if I recall correctly. 3rd ed made more sense, at least I thought so.
I would also recommend a fighter type character. The other classes are rather hard at such a low level (though in BG2, playing as a sorcerer is awesome!). My favourite is the ranger, but for no specific reason so a fighter or paladin works just as well. High strength, constitution and dexterity and you're ready to go (High=16+, 17 in the special attribute for the class you want to dual class into, i.e. 17 wis for dual classing into a cleric). Paladins can't dual class though and the ranger is limited to dual classing into clerics if I'm not mistaken.
