Which D&D game do you want remastered next after the Baldur's Gate series?

We all know Overhaul has been talking about remastering other series based on the success of BG1&2 EE, but I am curious on whether another remaster is even necessary, or do we just want BG III, or even nothing to do with D&D at all?

    Pool of Radiance would be nice since it never worked properly when I had a copy years ago.

    I want an updated aurora engine with a proper lighting/shadow renderer.

    Not that easy to answer...I'd like to say ToEE and some of the old school ones.

    I chose the Icewind Dale series because I think it is the easiest transition. Planescape is going to be hard to improve as most of the game is already masterful, though the battle system can be a little more fluid. Also, reading that game for error and bugs is going to be a chore as it has more text and choices than the whole BG series.

    I want BG3, but I wouldn't mind IWD. I don't need IWD though, as I still have the originals (in fact I'm currently playing it). If IWD is to be done, I would like it to be on the BG2 engine, so I could have proper dual wielding. Not being able to dual wield is my biggest peeve about IWD.

    @Zafiro

    It would be great to see your vote though, as the idea is to get a census of the board, I know the decision is hard, but worth it in the end.

    I'd like to see a Planescape EE, and with less restrictions than BGEE. I want to see all those great character models, backgrounds and spells in hi res, and improved combat. And more content in Curst and other late game areas, but Chris Avellone left some big shoes to fill as far as writing goes.

    @wariisop, okay, I'll say ToEE, but I don't belive they can do much about the engine, for I like to see it able to create more adventures. The IE games with the mods out there are allready great, maybe something old school could benefit more, also NWN needs something, only I dont know where to start.

    EDIT: Something really missing here, Icewind Dale III. !!!

    I voted for a BG3... but I also want Planescape Torment:)
  • KenyonKenyon Member Posts: 142
    Planescape Torment at a native resolution for my platform. Possibly the best story I've ever seen in a computer game.
  • wariisopwariisop Member Posts: 163
    It seems like Planescape has a series following on this board, man it is so hard for me to start that game because of all the reading in the first dungeon, after that though, the game is fantastic.

    Voted BG3 (just make a new game set in and around BG, doesn't have to continue on the Bhaalspawn saga).

    Close second: PS:T EE.
  • mch202mch202 Member Posts: 1,455
    I voted for Planescape because this game is amazing, best story in a computer games - because it is so amazing I think it is much less work to enhance it, you dont need to add areas, npcs and such, just overhaul the engine and maybe adding some more Items...

    I've always wanted to play the original Pool of Radiance but it was just too tedious, blocky, in a word primitive. But there's so much to work with there. My vote plus infinity.
  • JarlaxleJarlaxle Member Posts: 105
    Very difficult decision... P:T EE and IWD series EE would be great, but maybe a new story is what we need.
    But a BG3 + P:T EE + IWD1-2 EE would be better!

    In Order:
    - BG3
    - Iwd1, Iwd2
    - Temple Of the Elemental Evil (for this one, we need 5X more contents)
  • RazorRazor Member Posts: 436
    Just want to point out that it may not be that easy to get the rights to the IPs. Still it's interesting to know in order which game "could" be next. (meaning that trent could negotiate next)
  • wariisopwariisop Member Posts: 163
    Yeah, while I expected support for Planescape, I didn't expect it to be this overwhelming. It seems this is the game people want over IWD.

    Any of the old school gold box games.
  • XasilXasil Member Posts: 47
    Should'nt have included a BG3 choice cause a lot of peeps will vote for it since this is bg forums

    This! I want Retraux Unlimited Adventures with Druids, Bards, Monks and Specialist Mages!

    Icewind Dale

    None, give something new.
  • elminsterelminster Member, Developer Posts: 16,317
    Something with the name BG3. Like BG2 it doesn't actually have to involve much of Baldurs Gate, though if it could that would be wicked.
  • CorvinoCorvino Member Posts: 2,269
    Hang on a tick... With a bit of legal wrangling, could we have a fully voiced Planescape: Torment?

    After a workflow is created by doing BGI, BGII and IWD, IWDII, should be elementary!
  • lDanielHolmlDanielHolm Member Posts: 225
    Planescape: Torment.
  • purebredcornpurebredcorn Member Posts: 77
    I've never played Planescape Torment and I've always wanted to. I would be really excited if an enhanced edition came out.
