Only Single Player writes "[T]he inherent issue with Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition... is [that it is] perhaps too faithful to the original.
I can understand why they'd want to keep so much of the original - series fans would complain if a new direction was taken, and the original game is quite strong by itself. The problem is that many of the enhancements just aren't obvious enough. I'm torn by that - I don't want the enhancements to be obvious, because I want MY Baldur's Gate experience, just the way I remember it. It shows the developer's skill and familiarity with the series, too, to be able to add new content that does not feel out of place. It's just, for a re-release, I want something extra - something to modernise the experience enough to justify the purchase."
The Humble RPG Legends Bundle just launched today. It includes nine items including Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition, Neverwinter Nights: Complete Adventures, and more.
Daily Video Game writes: "Amazon has just added several more new games under $10 and $20 to celebrate its Prime Day, but these deals are not limited to just Prime members. That means even if you are not a Prime member, you could take advantage of these deals right now across multiple gaming platforms!"
If you are anything like me, a lot of what you do for work, for fun, and for staying in touch with friends depends on the great and mighty World Wide Web. So, imagine what would happen if the gang of neighborhood cats chewed through the power cords, cutting off your electricity. Or the alien hackers from outer space sent a destructive virus that crumbles the infrastructure of the internet in a matter of seconds. Devastating disasters like this could come in more mundane forms as well. Maybe your parents turn off your service or you are going on a trip to a remote, Wi-Fi-less destination.
Nice work, Trent and the gang! Nice to see they pulled it off. It's also nice to hear Baldur's Gate is still relevant. Kinda makes me pine for the Bioware of old. There's no doubt I'll be picking this up. I actually think I still have my Baldur's Gate disks around somewhere.
Wow, excellent review. All in all I hope they keep enhancing more games in the set.
Even though I still have the originals on CD and re-bought them both again on COG.. I'm still gonna buy this.
Always try to run away... always manage to catch up to me >_>
Is it available on Google Play for android?
