And therein lies the problem, it would be almost impossible too create a game that satisfies all of those demographics (though there is some crossover with BG and B&D fans I assume).

Regardless, they have gone for the mass market appeal and apparently plenty of people are playing the game who have no experience of the previous games or even D&D. The cinematics and combat mechanics such as shove, barrelmancy etc are obviously very appealing, even seductive, at first...it remains to be seen whether the novelty will wear off.
