The enhanced edition makes the game easy to play on any platform, which is good. It also kinda messes with the balance of the original game, adding class kits, spells and other mechanical stuff from BG2. Other than that, it doesn't get in the way, not adding any NPC or cutscene like BG1:EE did.
I would have liked an option to lock the zoom at original level rather than "pixel level", though.

A job done with love and respect. The gaming experience remains faithful to the original while at the same time innovations and additions from later games do not jar at all. The "Story" mode also makes it a good WRPG for those who want to approach this specific genre.

I'm probably in the vast minority of people who connected to this game more than Baldur's Gate. It's basically a boss rush: you go from set piece to set piece and then the game ends. And I kind of love it?

I played a little bit of this, and it was okay, but then I just listened to the Mages and Murderdads podcast to get the story summary from them and called it good.

When you want to click on gorblins and not talk to any dorks.

The best Aurora Engine game imo
