It refined the dungeon hack genre for a new generation, with sharp visuals and addictive gameplay, but with that same foundation that made dungeon hacks so fun to begin with. Don't fret though, because the shoes fit nicely - they just might be a bit too snug for comfort.
Hacking and slashing is a lot of fun ' this has been established - but if you're looking for something new in Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II , then you might be disappointed because it mirrors its predecessor in almost every way. The formula of hacking, plundering, and leveling is still in full effect here, but everything feels more refined this time around. Levels and dungeons feel a little more focused, though there is still plenty of exploring to do, and the fantasy experience flows along nicely.
Plus, the characters you can play as are all varied tactics-wise, so BGDAII warrants playing through a few times to truly see and unlock everything. Just make sure one of those replays is with another person in the co-op mode, because this is where the game really shines.
Most of the game is played from a top down view, but the details still shine through - details such as the well animated models, the sharp textures, and the impressive lighting effects. The audio still sounds great as well, with strong voice acting and a sweeping music score.
Also, the story is a convoluted mess. It picks up right where the first game left off, but it still isn't told well, nor is it too compelling. If you were one of the many that said, 'Man, I wish there was more of this,'? It's highly polished in every way and offers a lot more content - it just doesn't offer many new features nor does it fix some of the game's original problems.
Still, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II is a solid addition to the franchise and dungeon hack enthusiasts, hardcore or not, should do themselves a favor and check it out.

Not a few times, I died just staring at the lovely gelatinous cubes as they squished towards me, or got myself killed because I was watching the water splash and ripple or gaping at the marvelous lighting effects.
I'd say the quality and richness of the graphics in Dark Alliance put the PC games in this series to shame. But with the stunning graphics, super-fun co-op mode, and intelligent and seamless interface, you won't be worrying about the storyline until well after you've finished shooting fireballs at the last of the frost giants.
