Holy shit, I got Baldur's Gate 3 recently on sale for less than this lazy remaster of a 19 year old game.

Gamers are lapping this shit up too. What happened to the rage people had for the Switch 2 being expensive?

This isn't true. It has some significant changes, but still feels like the original. They nailed it.

There is new voice acting, and voices are effected by your position to the speaker. They improved the leveling system. They added sprint. The combat feels similar, but is a lot less janky. Of course the improved VFX and SFX. There is probably other things. But it's definately more than a remaster. It feels like a remake.

Also it's actually a different engine. Or at least partially? Apparently it's unreal for graphics but the crusty ass Gamebryo for gameplay according to wikipedia.

Yeah apparently Unreal for rendering, overtop Gamebryo
