Baldur's Gate 2/Neverwinter Nights.

You can switch class whenever you feel like it and start leveling a new class till you hit the levelcap, bit restrictions apply.

You can make a fighter mage, but heavy armor restricts spellcasting. So you do have to plan ahead a little.


That isn't really an accurate description of Baldur's Gate's class system. You can't switch classes whenever you feel like it and, in many cases, not at all.

The only circumstance in which you can switch class is when Dual Classing. Something only humans can do. And even then, that isn't switching a class as it is stopping progress of the starting class and adding the new class on top of it. It is also dependent on your character stats.

Other races can Multi-class, have two or three classes at the same time, but they can't change them later.

Some classes, like Paladins, can't be dual or multi-classed or changes at all. If you create a Cavalier at the start, you're stuck with it unless you start over.
