What we asked:

Q: Which of the games (and their expansions) covered on SP are you playing currently? (Multiple selections possible.)
(1358 votes total)

Baldur's Gate II (317) 23%
Neverwinter Nights (311) 23%
Icewind Dale II (288) 21%
Baldur's Gate (136) 10%
Icewind Dale (120) 9%
Planescape: Torment (113) 8%
Pool of Radiance: RoMD (46) 3%
None (27) 2%

An almost equal number of votes have been received by both Baldur's Gate II (23%) and Neverwinter Nights (23%), so these two games are obviously the most popular. It is surprising, however, that Baldur's Gate II is still being played by practically the same number of people as Neverwinter Nights currently, even though there is a 2-year difference between the two games.

Icewind Dale II is currently being played by 21% of people who voted in our poll, which is a big number considering that the game still hasn't been released outside of USA.

The original (and to many, still the best) Baldur's Gate is still being played by 10% of poll participants. Legends indeed never die.

The first Icewind Dale is currently being (re)played by 9% of people who voted in the poll. Certainly not bad, considering that the sequel is already here. (In USA, that is.)

Planescape: Torment, one of the best CRPGs ever created, is still being played by 8% of those who voted.

The nice-try-better-luck-next-time of CRPGs, Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor is currently being played by overwhelming 3% of people.

Only 2% of poll participants are currently not playing any of the games covered on SP.
