I predict that this board will temporarily die tomorrow.

They've put romances in BG1, and act of heresy so awful that I wouldn't touch this with a bargepole.

 

hmmm, as a ranger what racial enemy should I take... oh I know!

I am touched that my awesomeness prompts such elite photoshoppe action.

ok, observed my pal who tried it out

 

let's see

 

no custom portraits input

most of the new portraits are, like, photoshopped versions of old IWD portraits

 

no custom sounds input

poorly modded gui

cheap + tasteless flash intro re-make

 

first impression = thx, but no, thx

Its pretty much what I expected, and what I expected was: a game that could be a massive improvement over a modded BGT, but won't be at release because so many mods have been made incompatible by the changes.

 

I bought it to support the developers, as I support the concept wholeheartedly, but I doubt I'll have much interest in playing it until mods get updated and patches are released and so forth.

Uh you are right about the sound though they added new sound files themselves. Your opinion of the intro movie is an opinion. As for the portraits you are flat out wrong. They do work, it is just the "manual" does not give the correct directions. Also the new portraits are fine and it is pretty insulting to the artist who made them to insinuate they are photo shopped ice wind dale pics when they flat out aren't.

 

Your only valid complaint is the gui. It does in fact stink. Not having custom sound files has never been a big deal to me personally so take that for what it is.
