This, to me, is a joke for PC/Mac users. $20 for this? I can play BG1/2 on my computer just fine, thanks, with my original copy of the game. That I already paid for. I don't need an extra questline which, in all likelihood, is designed for "casuals."
I could see an iPad user wanting it but otherwise dropping $20 on this is just feeding the money-grubbing, remake-obsessed monster known as the mainstream video game industry.
Why not put your energy into making a new game, not copying what a modding community has already achieved?
They've said several times now that sales of these updates will increase the chance of BG3. They have to prove there's a market for a sequel, and that people will buy it.
As for the "casuals" statement, I'm not sure where you got that...

Mr. Tact Apr 17, 2013, 12:33: Pretty sure that's the definition of trolling... |
