Baldur’s Gate one of the greatest RPGs ever made, just got a new expansion titled Siege of Dragonspear.
Hope writes: "Classic RPGs make up some of the most formative examples of late '90s to early 2000s PC gaming in my memory, but I also remember when they weirdly disappeared. If you loved games like the original Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale, or Planescape, and also wondered why we stopped seeing these kinds of titles for a bit there, well it turns out you can blame physical retailers for the decline in Dungeons-and-Dragons-style PC RPGs."
I would have loved to have bought Baldur's Gate 3 if it would have had a physical release (not the censored Japanese release).
Why can't you just buy the physical release? I have an opened one on Xbox and a sealed collector's edition for PS5.
Are you just not capable of searching online?
Buy the euro version? That is available to purchase. The North American version was limited and sells for a good amount on eBay.
People want to play them. Retailers will sell them. But most dev teams can't make them.
Elon Musk is working on an AI-generated game, but Baldur’s Gate 3 publishing director Michael Douse isn’t convinced. He says AI can be a helpful tool, but it won’t fix the industry's biggest issues.
Licensing issues often leave many games forgotten. But all that aside, here are 10 classic games desperate for remasters.
The getaway
Smugglers run
Dead to rights
Worlds scariest police chases
Sure I’m missing a few.
Ape Escape.
Fun game but, wow, you need a college degree to understand the controls.
A remaster would also save you from having to constantly fight the camera.
Keep the music though. Those drum and bass tracks fit really well and haven't aged. Made me think that more games could work well with drum and bass tracks, but unfortunately it's a somewhat niche genre now.
i could have sworn i read somewhere that Remedy is remaking May Payne 1 but things have been quiet lately
One of the few Xbox games I own. I have 3 copies of it because of the many discs it has, for just in case reasons
Xenogears, Xenosaga trilogy, Vagrant Story, Drakengards, Parasite Eve and many more but I’ll start with those
Does it work with the original 18 year old Baldurs Gate?
Too many games, can't be going back and replaying all the classics.
I recently replayed doom and doom 2 in anticipation of DOOM! I also re-purchased all the quakes (could only find expansiom discs)
I replayed deus ex before i was going to play human revolution and never got around to human revolution ...
I purchased all the tomb raiders after playing the reboot, but didn't replay a single one of them.
... the struggle is real
