No, I didn't lie.
You think everyone plays the game like you, maxes stats to 18. Take a look at the NPCs in Baldur's Gate, none of them has 18 in 2 stats, Jaheira or Minsc have only 1 stat above 15, the pregenerated IWD characters don't have many stats maxed either.
You are not a standard player, the game wasn't balanced for players spending days creating characters with 18 in 5 stats. More players just take the first roll to create their characters without lowering/raising attributes and are skilled enough to finish the game with them without dualclassing. Are you really such a weak player that you think the game isn't beatable with rather "normal" characters ? Yoga the Brave will show you how a party you wouldn't dare to continue playing will be victorious at the end !
In terms of party creation Yoga is far closer to the "standard" player than you, remember Yoga's BG1 and BG2 protagonists who vaporized Sarevok and Irenicus with lightning speed or the stats of the first IWD party you can read in the BG2 thread, not many 18s were used.
