GamesDomain took an interesting overview of the situation with the expansion packs of the two huge commercial success, Diablo 2 and Baldur's Gate 2, coming out. It's quite funny and sometimes points at strange problems and controversies...Anyway, there are two controversies surrounding these two releases. (And no, I am not touching that whole "Diablo is not an RPG business." I'm not. Ok? Not.) One is that Diablo 2 got nerfed by a recent patch and t'other is that Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal lets you level up to 40, which is sort of Deities and Demigods territory in AD&D 1st Edition terms.
