How's the soundtrack?

Nah, I'll pass on this. I already downloaded the original installer and am keeping it separate entirely. No free lunch for you today, Beamdog.

This thread is just more proof that Gamers are not happy unless they have something to bitch about.

Hopefully i am in the right place here.

Where can i get the english Version?
My downloaded installer only contains the german one.

I only found this link: gogdownloader://planescape_torment_enhanced_edition_game/installer_win_en
But sadly it does not seem to work or i don't have the Special Programme to open it.

Thanks for your help.


Edit:
Nevermind. Not Ingame or easily found but i found a way to switch languages.

I'll wait until an update to judge purchasing or not. Given that BD is working on their new game thing and promised to pick the EEs back up after, I don't know if that'll be in a timely matter at all.

I'm not seeing enough to actually sell me on getting the enhanced edition or the enhanced soundtrack. The trailer for the soundtrack, I can't even tell by ear or even compare well enough to the original with just short clips of some select songs.

Not liking that price tag either.. think I'll stay with the original unless something changes my mind later on down the road.

Beamdog sucks. I don't mind new version of old games, even at a higher price. What I do mind is taking away the option to buy the original editions at a cheaper price. The only reason for this can be greed, combined with the knowledge that relatively few people would actually opt to buy the newer, more expensive version when a much cheaper version is also available. Shame on you, Beamdog! You're even worse than Ubisoft, EA, and the likes, in my eyes.

Congrats to Neverwinter Nights Diamond on becoming the number 1 bestselling title on GoG.

Tempting to buy this game. This game might have some bugs, which need to be fixed!

Here is no rush to buy it!

Would people REALLY want Beamdog make BG 3 considering their current track record and especially quality of their writing? I could understand them promising to outsource the development to Obsidian but Obsidian might not agree to it and doubt Beamdog has budged to hire them in the first place. There is also the problem of Hasbro not permitting creating new games using old rulesets/settings.

That was a misunderstanding when EE edition of BG1 was announced like 10 years ago. People were quick to jump to assume that it was a new BG. However, it was clear that the story of BG was concluded but Beamdog did not really rush to fix that misunderstanding. In the end, magazines contacted them and asked the question and that's how the truth came out (after many many attempts).

I agree that, even if they wanted to make a new story based on BG series, with their current record of writing, it is destined to be a disaster. Which actually is what Dragonspear is.

Of course they differ, but that's not the point. Jeff Vogels work shows that you don't necessary need to invent something new, you still can improve something and bring it to a new audience by making it more accessible.

I buy and play games mostly because I hope I enjoy them. Of course some publishers got some goodwill because of their work in the past. Others maybe felt at some point into disfavour, which means I'm more cautious before buying. It's alright if you don't want to buy a game because you fear the product is weak. Games are entertainment, as long as they entertain it should not be relevant if they are new, if they are old or if they are remakes. If I enjoy them, then it was worth to buy and spend my time with them. Then the developer did a good job, at least for me.

Selling something by making promises is never good and I can understand why some folks are not happy about that. But I guess it's not the missing release of Baldur's Gate 3 for all the negative reactions in this thread.

Oh, I agree that I wouldn't want Beamdog making BG 3. That doesn't change the fact that they let quite a few people assume that they would do it once they got enough cash, apparently only to get some more money out of fans.
It's really their attitude to customers I can't stand, if they were just bad writers/developers, I wouldn't dislike them nearly as much.

Actually, to me the Enhanced Editions from Beamdog are utterly pointless, because the original versions work perfectly on my PC and I don't have any problems installing mods for widescreen support, bug fixing or even additional content (and it says something about Beamdog that the quality of many BG and BG 2 mods is head and shoulders above the quality of the additional content they made for their EE imo). PS:T and BG 2 are some of my all-time favourite games, but pointless remakes are worthless no matter how good the original games are.

So I, and I'd think any other gamers would could already play the originals, have absolutely no reason to buy these "Enhanced Edition" other than to support the developer. Which I might do if it was a company like Obsidian, Larian or Spiderweb, which I'm confident can produce great RPGs if given the resources.
On the other hand, I'm pretty confident that Beamdog isn't capable of making a decent RPG at this point, hence my attitude toward them.
