So when is Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 getting made?

[CaptainLagbeard]

Because I want a full series and not starting part way through a series...

The Baldur's Gate trilogy of games is about the Bhaalspawn, if it's not about the Bhaalspawn it's not related to the trilogy.

Once again, the only connection is the Forgotten Realms setting, that does not make a sequel.

It'd be like if they took a Call of Duty game, set in the I dunno the DooM universe and called it a DooM game and pretended it was a sequel to DooM Eternal while not having any demons or the Doomguy/Doomslayer in the game.

The 3 in the name implies it's a sequel, but it's not a sequel to anything. At least not yet. They could go back and George Lucas this ♥♥♥♥ up and make prequels.

You can't even make a half decent comparison. You say that the setting is the same, then you proceed to name games that take place in completely different settings and worlds, and say it's the same thing.

You have made it very clear that you have no idea what you are talking about since you can't form a sentence without contradicting yourself... Sure fire signs that you are a troll, just trollin.

If it happens after you can call it sequal. Butterfly effect. Even small things can have lasting impacts, even if not directly related in the least.

Of course the games are related. "BG 3 is set In the late 15th century DR, almost a century after the events of Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn" The games are not related as in being the continuation of the same story. It is like history. We are a continuation of what happened 150 years ago. New stories same world.

So what you're saying it's not connected to the trilogy of games from Black Isle just takes place in the same setting of D&D Forgotten Realms.

So I ask a third time, when are they making Baldur's Gate 1 and 2.

Reach-around trolling at its best.

We need BG 1 & 2 remade with turn-based combat, just to watch the RTwP cult explode in a fireball of rage.

This would be fantastic and I fully support it.

This would be hilarious. And if they end up sucking I can still play the Originals or Beamdog versions while laughing at the people who get a stroke at the mere though that they will be remade as TB games.

[kaori]

I would really love to see the PlayStation2 version of baldurs gate 1 and 2 hack and slashers remade, ahhh those were such fun times co-op. Godly too coop couch. Even the fallout brohood of steel ps2 version was really nice coop play. Still have those, and play now and then.

Look, by this logic that "it takes place in the same setting", D&D Online and cryptic studio's Neverwinter are also sequels to Baldur's Gate.

And with other games, you also got Sword Coast Legends, Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone and Dungeons & Dragons: Daggerdale.

Also both Neverwinter Nights and Icewind Dale 2 as sequels for the Baldur's Gate trilogy.




Edit:
Also, if you think that's a bad comparison... Let me make another one.

Imagine if they took the Witcher series, made a Witcher 4. Except the main character isn't Geralt, and there are no Witchers in the entire game and you only get one established side character as a cameo. And the inly connection it had was that it takes place in the same setting as all the previous Witcher stuff.

Funny you bring up neverwinter nights... As neverwinter nights 2 was NOT a continuation of the original story either. For that matter, I am pretty sure Icewind Dale 2 also doesn't continue from Icewind Dale. It just takes place 30 years later.... Kinda like BG3...

Though I already know you are going to attempt some excuse to claim "it's not the same thing" but you are not logical, so there is that.

[Mr Rhav]

BG3 is more closer to a sequel to decent into avernus. eventhough Decent takes place ,100 years?!, before BG3.


They are calling it BG3 because it takes place in the Baldur's Gate area.

same with the games called Neverwinter, they take place in the neverwinter area.

[Spooky]

OT .. nice try.

If you mean the Black Isle games, they're in no way or shape related to this game. So I ask again, when will they make Baldur's Gate 1 and 2?

False....Games are not related by the game engine and style of gameplay. The games are very much related to each other.

[Lamiosa]

TLDR What is topic about: OP is disappointed, that Baldurs Gate 3 is no sequel to the old Baldurs Gate 1/2, hiding it behind a sarcastic question.

Btw. Baldurs Gate is a city-state at the sword coast. Maybe it IS a sequel to Baldurs Gate, referring to the region, just another story?

[Fenris]

@OP: From memory, just before 2000, so 1998 ou 1999.
But if you will try the old ones now, in 2020, prepare yourself to have your eyes bleeding. The old ones were good 20 years ago but now, they are totally obsolete.
And the plot of the hero character orphan who don't know who is he (as we've seen since a lot of rpgs where the hero is amnesic which is almost the same thing) to become "spoiler" is totally archaic and seen a dozen of time in RPGs by now. It won't do the same effect than 20 years ago.

You need to go back to your mother's basement.

Imagine having a third game set in a specific, and widely known, area of the sword coast... and then use the name of that area for the game! What a SHOCKING AND HORRIFIC concept.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ child. It's not like this is the first game to continue numbering games set in the same universe, but the story itself doesn't follow the same characters as the previous and takes place in different time periods...

Fallout was a good example. The FarCry series is another. Assassin's creed.

Talk about a troll complaining just to complain

The Baldur's Gate trilogy of games is about the Bhaalspawn, if it's not about the Bhaalspawn it's not related to the trilogy.

Why are you so upset when we have not seen how the game can be related to the bhaalspawn? Its still searly access and tbh a game can be called 2 or 3 or 4 and still not be related to the original story directly... Plent of game series have good examples. Far cry. Fall out. Battle field etc.
