I loved Baldur's Gate 1 (and it's one of those few games whose expansion I loved as well) so be sure you are not alone.

As Rabain said, very few people play now the unmodded game and I do understand why.

Plotwise (and not only, I might say music-wise also and more...) Baldur's Gate is, in my opinion, a much superior product when compared to the sequel. It has an undeniable advantage though: it starts the whole thing. And it's so much funnier to guide an unexperienced party, to see it mature from level 1 and to plan your strategies without having too powerful spells and so on. The game was never boring (Baldur's Gate 2 and its expansion sometimes were) and mostly never giving you a God-like feeling (Throne of Bhaal).

But TuTu and BGT do add something that Baldur's Gate was missing: a more advanced engine. And if it's true that the original game had never been intended to run with kits and higher resolution graphic, I can only just be happy that this is now possible because it makes an already great experience even better. Mostly when played as a single saga through BGT.

Infinity Engine is dead! Long live Infinity Engine!
