I mean... cool. I will buy it and all, but if you are putting this much effort into it can we just get a new BG4 instead?? The article just says it's 'inevitable' but not confirmed, or even rumored. Don't get me wrong, I think BG2 is up there with some of the best storytelling in games out there, but are you telling me that out of the entire forgotten realms history of Baldur's gate, there have only been 3 stories to tell? It costs so much to develop a game already, just put in the last bit of effort and make it a new story. Alternatively, use the BG3 engine and give us a massive expansion that feels like a full extra act. I would pay 20-25$ for that.

I mean, yes it is effort going in, but it's effort by different people to the BG3 devs and it's effort on remastering a game that the BG3 devs weren't involved in. The BG3 engine is Larian's own one as well, so I don't think that this team would even have the option of using it
