Yeah that was lame how peeps piled on them. Beamdog really got the worst of it from people trying to be all hater about minor characterization stuff or like a single merchant in their Dragonspear intermission. I actually like the company and don't have any beef at all over their attempts at greater inclusion in the game. All the EE VO work was pretty decent. I did a playthrough with the new companions and it was fun. I was just irked by how they obviously cheaped out on their portrait art lol

Some of the minor UI stuff I liked, such as the floating loot toggle, so you could pick up treasure from the ground without having to click each pile. Or how they approached BG1 with the NPCs having the "meet me there later" option at party reform. Some other stuff not as much. But the convenience factor of the EE won out for me, even if I still have all the old CDs. The old style installs just take too long to set up, and I like how quickly everything loads in the EEs. The difference in load times between BG2EE and BG3 makes me feel like lightning quicksilver heheh. If only BG3 could load up so quickly
