I played Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance 1 and 2 and Champions of Norrath 1 and 2. If you are trying to imitate this experience, you will be disappointed immensely. The game is a clunky unfinished beast that needs to be fixed on initial launch. Im typically fine with this approach, (every game nowadays is unfinished, which is sad) but it misses the essence of the first games. How can you do a spiritual sucessor and miss everything that the first games suceeded with...? What a sad age we live in with top-down rpgs.
