I still don't know where these "most" people are outside of a few members. It's not intended to be a shade remake but every part I've been to, it's mostly been positive from Discord, Reddit, and even on this forum. There are the same few people who disagree, but I don't see most. There has to be a reason why games like old Baldur's Gate not popular anymore with the mainstream audience? Studios don't hate money, they go where the money is. When games like Pillar of Eternity 2 failed so badly, the studio stops making them and has to reconsider their strategy if they ever touch it again, and you think Obsidian could have done something better with just a different title? At the end of the day, these kinds of games are not what most people want, because there's no reason not to make it like old baldur's Gate if that's what most people.

It's not that they don't care; it's more like there's no reason to care about it. If they did go real time, it would be more or less in the vein of somewhere between Dragon Age Origin and Dragon Age Inquisition, but it's too late at this stage to really change the entire game's gameplay anyway.
