So the ending is definitely the weakest part of the game, kind of went out with a whimper. People are saying it's due to the cut content, but even quality wise it's very weak.
As far as the story goes
Bg2 main story is miles better in my opinion, but that could very well be the nostalgia talking (probably is).
The music is really good. It has a more modern flavor and I liked that if for nothing else than it being different that everything else in the crpg genre, which is not to say that others games have bad music, this was just a breath of fresh air.
Environmental sound is still non existent or at least very subdued. Idk why it's hard to do some background noise like in BG2 and IWD2, it makes such a big difference in making the world feel alive. Tbh I would have traded a large part of the voice acting for that.
Gamplay is not as good as the rtwp game, simple as that, especially in big and drawn out fights.
I'll definitely play this game when the definitive edition comes out.
