i was a big fan of bg1/2 and still play them. nwn is a gem super amazing roleplay experience though the controls were not my fav, and graphics aged not entirely well. they keep wonder with content emerging and in story games the graphics are minimal value imho.
as for old vs new: i try to keep my desires of how it should be out of it to an extent considering i didnt take the initiive to make it. yet thats just me, and im not speaking for anyone besides me. i can empathize with wishing it was more adjacent to what i knew, yet i also am open to a new experience and not holding the past up on a mantle
