Anyone getting Baldur's Gate EE Wednesday?

I think I will. I hope it will generate interest to get a sequel developed.

Pre-loaded already.

That's exactly what I was worried about, but I never owned BG1, only 2, and I never got too far into it. I think I was too young to understand what I was doing at the time. Would you recommend getting BG1 and using the tutu mod so I can play through both?

It's up to you, to be honest. Modded Baldur's Gate and this 'enhanced' version aren't that different from each other except that EE has a different User Interface and the ability to zoom in and out. The content/quests haven't ben touched. There are probably other features, but they are so insignificant that it's not worth researching.

The main reason why this version exists is because of its expanded platforms; You can play it on a ipad. Which is quite brilliant.

On GOG.com, Baldur's Gate + Expansion is 10 bucks, wile the EE version will be 20 bucks. For the PC, you could either take 10 - 15 minutes of your time adding the required mods to enhance the original, or pay 10 bucks extra to get the enhanced version from the get-go with those two features said above.

Can't wait. Been years since I've played it and with a few new things it's going to be great.

Pre-loaded already.

[QUOTE="ArchDemon123"] i dunno man, i mean, BG is my favorite game of all time, but really? the so called EE looks like they just installed the widescreen patch and ported it to the BG2 engine, so it was more polished, while retaining it's interface i'll just play bg tutu mod if that's the case :(Lucianu

Yeah not sure how that is going to work inless they heavily modified the game.. Some fights were a nightmare to manage on the PC, touch screen seems like it would only make things worse... I hope they actually rebalanced the game because literally half the classes and their archtypes were horribly gimped especially when you compared them to the god teir classes like Sorc/Wizard, Monk, Kensai.

Will they add new content to EE version?

I'll definitely get eventually. I never played the original, only Baldur's Gate 2, so I'm excited to see the part of the story I missed.

Anyone know if they plan to release it on Steam in the future?

I really want to but am saving my money for DayZ standalone for later in Dec.

Im sure ill end up getting it sometime though, I loved Baldurs Gate

Haven't decided yet. I'm not too keen on the idea of adding all the BG2 classes and weapon skills and such to BG1. And they added some new NPC's, but will they be up to par with any of the NPC's from the original game? I'd be surprised.

I have been meaning to play BG and TotSC again, so I may just install those and play them as-is. Don't need an enhanced version :)

From what i understand, the EE is fully voiced.Nighteg

I can confirm that this isn't true.

Nope. I ditched re-releases after they began releasing identical versions of previous GTA games...
