Seriously, try playing Bg1 EE now - You may find that on a modern computer and with a lifetime of experience with modern games that you don't like it.
We old folks can get nostalgic and sentimental for stuff we did in our youth. Because we were young and hopeful instead of the jaded, bitter, wrecks we have become as we slowly circle the drain of life.
Also, the multiplayer in Bg3, *chef's kiss* - SO good!
Works, plays fine right now? I don't see the problem. The continued recent release of stuff like the Wasteland series, Pathfinder series, Expeditions series, etc shows that the formula still works just fine.
If you want to count yourself among the "nostalgic sentimental, jaded, bitter wrecks" speak for yourself.
