    Test Your Mettle: a dungeon tailor-made for the intrepid adventurer. May be familiar if the name “Nordom” rings a bell.

    "Essential" is debatable, but there are some good mods that aren't available for pre-EE games (to my knowledge). eg Trials of the Luremaster and Test your Mettle are both very nice dungeons (ported from Icewind Dale and Planescape: Torment), and most of Lava's excellent Athkatlan Grounds mods are EE-only. As for tweaks etc, that really depends on what you're actually looking for, but there aren't any EE-only tweak mods I'd consider absolutely essential.

    If you want a challenging dungeon crawl, Tower of Deception, Trials of the Luremaster (ported from Icewind Dale), and Test Your Mettle (ported from Planescape: Torment) are fun.

    Are you thinking of argent77's TOTLM in BG2EE? I think it might've been on SHS originally. Sort of similarly, there's Test Your Mettle, which imports the Modron maze from Planescape: Torment.

    Baldur's Gate 2 (You kinda need to play 1 to understand 2, and 1 has mods that add in romances that are then expanded into the second game. The second game does have romances but I'm not a fan of them. Especially the base game, non-Enhanced Version romances. However that site I linked and several others have romance NPC you can download that add dozens of hours to your playthrough.)(I have hundreds of hours in these games just from the mods alone.)
  • I finally get the Anomen thing after 20-odd years.

    Oh, sorry, I meant the BG1NPC mod, which adds banters, quests, interjections, and romances for all of the original NPCs. I will say that I don't agree with the writers' interpretation of every character, but on the whole it adds a lot of life to BG1, bringing the level of character chatter up to BG2's, so I haven't played without it in a long time.

  • Best immersion and quality-of-life mods for a first playthrough
    5 projects | /r/baldursgate | 27 Apr 2023
    If you're expecting the kind of party banter and interjections you got from your listed games, I will suggest the BG1 NPC Project. https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/npcs/bg1npc/ Otherwise a lot of party members will join and then pretty much never speak up again.
  • First time downloading mods

    BG1NPC - expands BG1 characters, adding banters, quests, and optional romances.
  • Coming from PoE1 for Baldur's Gate 2
    1 project | /r/baldursgate | 11 Apr 2023
    If the quiet party members are a factor for you, then I suggest https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/npcs/bg1npc/ which adds a lot of dialogue and romance and quests to the existing characters and a lot of people won't play without it. Some people think your first playthrough should remain pure and vanilla without mods, but I feel that if you're coming from more modern games, there's nothing wrong with modding them to be what you want.
  • Which companions do you play with the least?
    2 projects | /r/baldursgate | 15 Mar 2023
    Yeah, that's definitely a deal breaker, but thankfully, you can easily mod their spawn locations. The Gibberlings3's Tweaks Anthology and BG1 NPC Project have a component to move those NPCs to more convenient locations. Unmodded, you can still spawn them with the CreateCreature cheat.
  • BG series mod recommendations?
    1 project | /r/baldursgate | 13 Mar 2023
    For BGEE, I would consider the BG1 NPC project a must-have.
  • Best similar games to DA series? [spoilers all]
    1 project | /r/dragonage | 12 Mar 2023
    I love the two original Baldur's Gate games, but there was almost no character development in the first one. They didn't really introduce romances, party banter, and important personal quests til BGII. The plus side is the Baldur's Gate modding community is huge and wrote all those things into BG1. https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/npcs/bg1npc/

    BG1NPC project adds a bunch of quests for existing NPCs, if you haven't played it.

What are some alternatives?

When comparing A7-TestYourMettle and BG1NPC you can also consider the following projects:

Alternatives - Alternatives offers two new possibilities to consider when making the decision about whether to side with the Shadow Thieves or with Valen's Mistress. In addition to the traditional two, the player may now opt to side with a group even the paladins in the party could have no objection to... or he may opt to skip the whole decision entirely and set sail for Maztica. Alternatives also offers a different way to satisfy Mae Var's demand that the protagonist steal an artifact from a temple and an alternate way to complete the Riddle of the Sewers. https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/quests/alternatives/
