Is Enhanced Edition by Beamdog any good or is it just another scam?
I hear it doesn't fix nearly as much as fan patches do, but it does introduce item highlight, which I consider nearly mandatory. All their "enhanced editions" are blatant cash grabs, but if I'm going to pirate anyway, what's the best version to do so?

you should pirate it and then re-upload it with viruses and botnet
then you should comment on other downloads with out botnet and explain that it contains botnet

It sounds like you have a lot of experience with trash tier sites, but that's not on topic

pirate the gog version. then follow the guide on gog to mod it to the superior version. from what i can remember it's an automated exe so it shouldn't be much of an issue.
avoid beamdog, they're absolute trash who raped baldur's gate with tumblr-tier OC characters.

From what I've heard they didn't shit up the game much if that's what you're asking. I doubt it's very "enhanced" though, it's just a shittier version of what community mods do.

Thanks. No mods for item highlight I take it? Well, I can live with that. It was very helpful when I was playing on my phone

Enhanced edition is good, no game breaking bugs and it works, high resolution is nice. Audio compression is less lossy.
I do know that save games from the normal edition don't work with the enhanced edition unfortunately.

I can’t believe Beamdog wrote Baldurs gate and Planescape!

Greetings
My hd got fucked and took with it my Torment save files.
I had reached Ravel and would like to know if anyone has and could share a savefile that is close at that point in the game. Would really like to finish this game but don't have it in me right now to replay to reach her right now.

False
Icewind Dale EE is an objective improvement
More complete graphics–gender/race/class combinations that defaulted to the old bearded wizard now have appropriate graphics, whereas the previous mod solution would simply replace them with the female elf thief
Better AI scripts
Included Unfinished Business content (okay, it's not hard to add on your own but still)
No added OC bullshit
No injected SocJus agenda; the misgenderable dwarf in the first tavern is in the original

I don't want my money to go to people who didn't even work on the game. There are no royalties in vidya and Black Isle is long gone.

Installed the gog version (not enhanced edition) and installed all the recommended mods and patches, but the game crashes every time i try to load a save.
What is a man to do?

The story is decent, the gameplay and design is absolute trash.
Just read the novel instead.

What is there even to get good at? Put most of your points into INT/WIS/CHA and just talk to people, avoiding combat whenever possible. You know how some games have a "story mode" when you can skip the gameplay? PS:T is basically story mode by default.

I remember playing this a few years back and getting an instant crash every time I left an npcs house near the beginning of the game.
Apparently I needed a hex editor to fix it, and I dropped it there.
Maybe I should try the Enhanced editon.

Why was there an armor slot for the Nameless One even though there is no armor item that he can wear?

Beamcock went out of their way to point out that they didn't tamper with the actual story and texts in the game. Think about this. They need to announce that they are NOT working on certain parts of a game in order to mollify fans.

Do the install one step at a time and test each step. Install game > run game > save game > load game > close game > run game > load game. Rinse and repeat after each patch and mod. Make sure you're using a save that's from the same edition and patch. Mods may fuck with saves, too.

Someone mentioned it, now I have to play it again. Last time I played without the widescreen patch and all the fixes, so it was just stretched out 640x480. Right now I set it to 800x600 and then manually letterboxed it. What resolution do you fags use that isn't too zoomed out with a UI for ants and isn't too stretched? I've tried like 6 different setups and 800x600 is the only one that's looked okay to me.

>Is Enhanced Edition by Beamdog any good or is it just another scam?
I would argue it's actually the ONLY good one that warranted EE simply because PST's original combat interface, the ring/wheel/whatever one where you had to scroll through actions, was intolerably bad. Beamdog gave it saner interface in comparison.

1280 x 800 looks good to me for Infinity Engine games, a decent compromise between field of view and size. I would also recommend increasing to framerate cap speed up the gameplay a bit. And for crying out loud, set your OS to not stretch the image but put black bars at the side, I scream internally every time I see a horizontally stretched picture.

They know nobody liked the shit they did with their remakes of the Baldur's Gate games. I would say if someone is lazy and doesn't want to install the mods themselves they can just pirate this since Beamdog essentially just mashed together some mods the community made and are trying to sell it for some easy cash. I don't advocate for them to make any money off of this release,
