Gameplay

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance is a console player of Baldur's Gate computer game in the world of Dungeons & Dragons. There is, however, no commonality with regard to the action or play. Dark Alliance is a Diablo-style action RPG. The player chooses his main character at the beginning from three predefined figures: the Arcane Archer Vahn, the Elven Enemy Adrianna and the Dwarf Warrior Kromlech. In addition, a bonus character will be unlocked after completing the game with Drizzt Do'Urden. A free character generation as in Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale is largely absent.
The player controls his / her character directly from the perspective of the game with the help of the gamepad, with a freely rotatable camera that can be zoomed in three steps. The battle is played in real time. By solving tasks and killing opponents, the player collects, as in rolling games, customary points of experience that allow him to expand the abilities of the character while reaching certain point limits. The development possibilities of the characters are given by a very limited skill tree within comparatively narrow limits. The selection of skills is predominantly campaign-oriented. In favor of the action-oriented game principle and thus, in contrast to the underlying D & D rule set, mana energy is consumed for the use of spells. The preparation of spells is thereby eliminated. In addition to action-oriented battles, there are dexterity and jumping passes, as well as simple counter-puzzles. To save the game, the player must search for specific points in the game world.
