BG2 was a good game (in fact, it was a great game) but BG1 was better. BG2 just went way, way too over the top. D&D is a much more challenging and fun game at low levels... at "epic" levels is just turns into way too many Demi-Gods, +6 Weapons, Destroyers of Worlds, and 20d6's. It's a big turn off for me.
I enjoyed playing BG2, but there was a certain point where I just thought, "I just defeated the Prince of Demons and now I'm a god... umm, yay?" Honestly, I think that I got more satisfaction from beating my first Ogre in BG1 than a lot of the stuff in BG2.

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
