I want a pre-2001 gamer mode.

Limited slot inventory (this in my opinion is the single most FUN aspect of the old games! I like having to THINK about the gear I want to keep or need, instead of hording everything)
No minimaps.
Limited resting.
Remove ALL fast travel locations.
Remove 25% of all Magic items (the over powered or useless stuff). Remove ALL duplicates.
Remove 75% of potions and scrolls.
Increase all item prices by 200%.
Remove 25% of all gold in the world.

Proper creature stats and levels (increased)...why? :

BG3 Beholder(Spectator):
Level 5(???), just 4 ABILITIES and dark vision/opportunity attack.

BG2 Beholder:
Level 9
Has 9 ABILITIES! (Anti-Magic Ray , Serious Wound Ray, Paralysis Ray, Charm Person Ray, Fear Ray, Flesh to Stone Ray, Domination Ray, Slow Ray ,Death Ray). Has IMMUNITIES to 9 conditions (Backstab, Entangle, Grease ,Hold Creature, Paralyze, Power Word, Stun, Slow ,Stun, Web.) And 1 SPECIAL ability : Free action.


Casual modern gamers be like: jawdrop cry lol

Something like that anyways. I know, Larian will never have the balls to do something like that. Some kind of "Retro BG" hard mode smile
I applaud Obsidian for doing something very similar to this in PoEII Deadfire.

It just reminded me of the bowl of goat's milk that old Winthrop used to put outside his door every evening for the dust demons. He said the dust demons could never resist goat's milk, and that they would always drink themselves into a stupor and then be too tired to enter his room..
