I'm on Chapter 5 of #BaldursGate. I first got the box set with TotSC included and maps and everything back in 2003, when it was in the charity shop I worked at. A woman was going to buy it for her son. She asked me what the age rating was, because she couldn't see it, and when I showed her it was for 15+, she decided against it, so I snapped it up and started on the road to becoming an #ADnD2e fangirl! I later found the #DnDBasic set in another charity shop a few years later for ยฃ2.50. They had a lot of miniatures too, but I never bought them. That's when I went full-on fangirl, bought the guides, started crafting my own campaign world and got my nephew to play for a short time.
I never finished Icewind Dale. I couldn't defeat the final boss. I don't think I ever installed Icewind Dale II. I'm not sure if it's because I needed a break from the series or because it wouldn't work on my crappy netbook.
AD&D2e will always be the best version for me. The only issue was the crappy alignment definitions, but people have made fixes for that, so it's fine (I'm a chaotic neutral btw).
