    I don't pre-order as a rule, but I'll be picking up the PC version as soon as it's available.

    For me, it's a mixture of things, because I'm the type of person that will pre order a game as soon as I know it's available. I'm broke atm, my computer seems somewhat broken as well and don't know when i can fix it, and finally because I ALSO want more info on it as well.

    I'm old fashioned and a little leery about getting this as a download instead of going to the store and buying a boxed disc(s) of it, but I just pre-ordered it, so hopefully everything will work out.

    @dragonspear not sure where you live but if there's a millard near you, let me know and i can put in a good word for you. my name carries a little weight, so long as you're not in canada

    www.millardref.com but then not sure what you're looking for and not the best company, but great benefits and not a bad company either

    Are you guys waiting for mac/android versions ...

    This is my reason; intending to purchase both Mac & iPad versions.  If there was a mechanism to pre-order I would have already, which I know is an Apple imposed limitation on the respective stores.

    Ya I just graduated college as well and most of the places in the Tampa area are only interested in people who used to work for em right now. I really should get around to filling out this latest stack of applications on my desk.

    I've got a Mac running Boot Camp but honestly I'd really rather run it natively on Mac if I can. If there were a Mac pre-order I would've been there probably a month ago.

    There's no benefit to pre-ordering early so I'm probably going to do it a few days before the release. The likelihood of me pre-ordering is about 95% but I'd rather wait for some more info on the game.

    You save two dollars if you pre-order, actually.

    @dragonspear well, think on it like this, if you don't fill them out, you most likely won't be able to play BG:EE. And if you buy the game anyways before you have a job, you most likely won't be applying for a job or getting one until probably jan next year. Seasonal hiring is usually only in the service industries.

    Btw, if you're friendly, can always consider working resturants until you get a job. Good money, easy work, few hours. And in holiday seasons, can make a killing.

    I would pre-order if I could for mac. If it was a PC only release, I don't know.

    Just from the thread title, I was thinking this:

    Dittos, i would rather wait for reviews. I've bought some crapware, so I made a vow. I will gladly pay an extra couple bucks to buy it late and safe.

    Don't worry. It will be good. :)

    Ill probably will pre-order it about a week or two before it comes out, so I can pre-load. I hope some sort of collectors edition comes until then though,
  • StrangeCatStrangeCat Member Posts: 39
    haven't decided if i am going to play it or not. The PR was pretty weak. The pictures are really weak.
    Will probably support them since 20 dollars is chump change but don't know if I will have time to play the game.

    Enhanced edition ? BGEE announce "over 400 improvements" without more precision, the beta-testers can't say anything, there is no playable demo, there is no video... So I'll wait for some reviews and player comments before making a decision.

    Enhanced interface ? Where are the screens ? What's the screen size of inventory/character ? 800x600 ? I wait to see more screens for compare with the widescreen mod. Moreover, the blue GUI is ugly, it's not the final version ? So I'll wait the final version.

    And finally, several things are not clear about the "french translation", so I don't know which version to choose (french or US).

    I would have preordered it already if you could via the App store\iTunes.

    I just can't tell if it will be any good or not. There is not enough info to make a decision. Which is why I am on this forum in the first place. What is it now a month out? Still not enough concrete info.

    Also Mac.

    Im 3 dollars away from getting it. And other people might not have enough to buy it, or are lazy bums.

    Did you like Baldur's Gate 1 originally?

    Would you like to run it natively on your Mac?

    Then it's good enough.

    I never pre order. Also, I'm waiting for them to fix the can't-have-BGEE-and-BG-from-GOG-at-the-same-time Bug.
