You can't go home again, as the saying goes.
I really tried, though. Wanted to play BG1EE up to BG2EE ToB - especially considering that I never played the EE of ToB.
But I just can't really get into it. Partly because having the story and most of walkthroughs memorized, partly because I dislike the mechanic side.
Even the character generation, which I found awesome 20 years ago, feel overly restrictive. Especially playing evil is so meh.
I am the person that likes to play a character that is at least partially similiar to me, so certain stuff like the over-importance of Dexterity is annoying.
But, like I said earlier, BG is a very different thing to different persons. So someone who might still enjoy BG a lot today, might just not be interested in the options that BG3 offers over BG1&2. So to them it is still fun to play and has lost nothing of its radiance.
