I as many others compleatly don't understand all this ruckus? The new players prolly never played the old RPGs so I dont understand why these ppl have problem with Baldurs Gate name on this game. And the old players, those that grew up on these games like BGs, Icewinds or Planescape surely will remember that all these games used almost identical icons, menus and playstyles. Yet they were all different. Because back then gamers didn't care for graphics but for stories, character development, unseen twists and philosofical topics.
If you really cry over similarities with DoS game (thats only a plus because those games were the closest thing to the RPGs of old), well than please leave this forums so the developers dont get some wrong ideas.
I support Larian because nowadayz there is no better developer to handle my favourite game genre.
