Don't worry, Kit! No one's gonna twist your arm here.<br/><br/>As for BG. It's not so much "point-and-click" as it is a cRPG - computer RolePlaying Game. It's based on the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons rules, but combat occurs in realtime.<br/><br/>The series is considered a classic, and it can be kinda unforgiving if you don't save and reload regularly, but I wouldn't necessarily call it hard. I'd certainly recommend it if you like big open worlds, lots of little sidequests, and a good story.
