I have to say I agree with you, Morcaster. I saw nothing at all that made me think "Baldur's Gate." The feel is totally off. It's inevitable that technical aspects are going to change given the amount of time lapsed and I don't overly object to things like a turn-based system etc, but there seems to be absolutely no inspiration from the originals at play.
I'd love to play D:OS 3, but that's not that I want from this.
Right. This game looks amazing in it's own way. It's just that calling it BG feels wrong. Just because it takes place in the same area.... I'll have to try it and see how it goes. The turn-based gameplay is a huge turn-off however.
