Don’t do this! I don’t wanna die!!!

Silence, dog. You have no purpose but to die by my hand.

David Warner’s performance turned an edgelord line like that into a dispassionate badass. BG2 just won’t be the same without him.

Hard pass. Beamdog’s EEs are all the update the games really needed.

Modern audiences absolutely will not try to understand what THAC0 is, and that means leaving 2E rules behind. You do that and you don’t have BG anymore.

And, yes, I’m saying BG3 “isn’t BG.”

It’s weird to think this isn’t the majority opinion. If I had to make a “best games of this decade” list, I think maybe Shadowbringers would be the only AAA project on that list.

Games made by small teams with small budgets, like Shovel Knight or Blasphemous or Stardew, are what’d be crowding the top.
