I'm new to the BG franchise and from watching LP's on Youtube I've noticed the unforgiving difficulty level. Will there be some kind of tutorial or learn as you play mechanic?
Candlekeep by itself is a huge Tutorial, showing the ropes to how the game works. There's also a room which functions as a combat tutorial. If I remember correctly, the head guard for the keep comes and asks you to go in. He's annoying as hell to deal with. He's in the South/South-East part of the keep. Just remember to read all the dialogue in the keep to get some good tips!

According to Oster, the Enhanced Edition will have an improved tutorial over the normal version. But if else fails, talk to the green robed guys. It takes some time to get the hang of it, but once you have it under control, it's feels so rewarding. Good luck!
One thing that could do with a voice over IS the tutorial... and it should outright say "Hey, you're gonna need to read the text boxes, or you're not gonna get a full experience!"
