Doesn’t this raise a lot of questions though?
If you combine all the mods that have been provided by the community, you’re looking at a severely enhanced version of Baldurs Gate already.
I’m kinda waiting for something to let me know how this is any different from that. The modders have done a truly great job keeping the game alive and running, even through the dark age of Vista (!!!), improving it and completing unfinished content they’ve found in the code.

That’s pretty damn enhanced. It’s still the same engine in this case, so what’s going to set it apart?
