    Having the opportunity to (re)play one of the most influential RPG of all times is really great, specially if it is enhanced with several QoL features and the SotSC expansion.
    Playing this game (on ps4) until getting the platinum has been a really enjoyable nostalgia trip, the legendary characters and locations never looked better and the story and worldbuilding were as good as they were

    Playing this game (on ps4) until getting the platinum has been a really enjoyable nostalgia trip, the legendary characters and locations never looked better and the story and worldbuilding were as good as they were more than 20 years ago.
    Still this an old school RPG with strict D&D rules, demanding inventory micromanagement and it looks like a 1998 game so I assume that newcomers will run for their lives towards more "friendly" modern games.
    I am really grateful for all the configuration possibilities this version offers like the zoom in--out, text size and gameplay adjustments. The new characters included by Beamdog are mostly forgettable and I think gamers will stick to the party they had back in times but they did a great job adapting it to a controller and solving bugs.
    Totally recommended if you already played it in the past and want to dive again in into the perils of the Sword Coast and Baldur's Gate and you do not want to invest time with PC mods or you have a Ps4

    It is one of the most difficult games to play nowadays. And the new version doesn't have enough improvements to make it so. Gameplay is just really horrible and it's enough to make you stay away from this game.

    Отличное переиздание супер классики, изумительно хорошо играется на современном железе, не стыдно показать друзьям!

    Существуют просто Зло и Большое Зло, а за ними обоими в тени прячется Очень Большое Зло. Очень Большое Зло, Геральт, это такое, которого ты и представить себе не можешь, даже если думаешь, будто уже ничто не в состоянии тебя удивить. И знаешь, Геральт, порой бывает так, что Очень Большое Зло схватит тебя за горло и скажет: «Выбирай, братец, либо я, либо то, которое чуточку поменьше»Существуют просто Зло и Большое Зло, а за ними обоими в тени прячется Очень Большое Зло.

    It’s not the flawless, refined version that the dedicated RPG veterans were waiting for, but even so, BG:EE remains a solid investment for Dungeon & Dragons romantics. [March 2013]

    Age may have formed a few cracks in its legendary skin, and perhaps the over reliance on randomness from the Dungeons and Dragons’ ruleset seems rather archaic, but within this slumbering ancient beast lies a mighty heart waiting to be awakened once more.

    A solid re-release of a classic plus some nice new frills, but not without its problems.
