The Enhanced Editions also go on sale both at GOG and Steam usually two or three times a year. If you're not expecting to play them until around the summer, then I'd wait if you're on any kind of a gaming budget. If you're not wanting to play them for a few months, GOG has offered a deal at least twice a year where you pay about $20 and you get Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 (the old originals), Neverwinter Nights 1+2, Icewind Dale 1+2, Temple of Elemental Evil (very good game, too), Planescape: Torment, DragonShard and Demon Stone (the latter are both skippable, but aren't horrible games). And your widescreen saves are not compatible with your 4:3 saves. It just didn't all go together very well. I tried the mods for wide-screen with Baldur's Gate. I'll admit, though, the better GUI, wide-screen support and zoom looks nice. And I like the experience of stepping back in time and playing them like they played 15 years ago. I might pick them up on a sale, but I think the old games play just fine.

After he rejoins with the pet, he reverts to his true form, that of a chaotic evil Ogre Mage Baldur's Gate (1998)This icon indicates content from the original Baldur's Gate campaign. He first appears as a human child looking for his 'dog', Rufie. I personally have not played the Enhanced Editions yet. Albert is a planar traveler who is found in the Fire Leaf Forest area, south of Nashkel, at coordinates 1356,968. If you're more of a one-shot-and-done sort of person and you have your Internet connection and don't mind the DRM, then Steam is the better deal. If you're that kind of person, I'd strongly recommend getting the GOG versions. The Steam version of Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition is filled up with some DRM and Baldur's Gate is a game many, many people end up playing over and over throughout their lives. Here there are Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II, sold for less than 14$ if I buy the combo.ĭo the GOG versions have the little add-ons the Steam versions have? Do they have enhanced graphics for large screens? I'm trying to decide if it's better to buy GOG's version today or Steam's version when it'll be on sale. Each one sells for 20€ (yeah it's not exactly 20). On Steam, there are Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition and Baldur's Gate II Enhanced Edition.
