Is this game being made first and foremost for those who hold BG1 & 2 as the apex of computer RPGs? If not, there is no reason to be so beholden to the original (in whatever way the aforementioned group thinks that should or even can be achieved).
Oh please STOP.
This is not about the original games.
This is SIMPLY about the FACT that the game looks exactly like DOS2.
I wouldnt care less if the game didnt resemble the originals at all.
But what really strikes me hard is that Larian takes the BG franchise and makes it look like DOS2.
I mean really...put some creativity and originality in this game PLEASE.
It. Is. Pre. Alpha.
It. Will. Look. Less. Like. DoS After. More. Time. Being. Worked. On!
(I could not find a normal clap emote)
And how exactly do you know how the game will look later? What you have a magic sphere and you can see in the future.
What the devs need is constructive fanbase feedback...if they continue like this the game will look like this in the end.
