...damn, too late to the fray. Most of the things I would have suggested were already said. But I'll try to add some more and you can guess the game
66. After you finish the game, you unlock the Nightmare difficulty, where the drops are better, but everyone's got 50% more HP and ATK. 67. You can do Paragon levels on the Nightmare difficulty. 68. After finishing the game, the bosses would be farm-able for epic random drops. 69. During your single-player game, your Steam friend can just drop in with his over-leveled lvl 20 Berserker and kill everything in sight. While you are level 1. In Candlekeep. 70. There would be an achievement to kill Drizzt 71. There would be an achievement to kill Gorion 72. Out of 100 mods, 92 will be nude/lingerie-mods 73. The remaining 8 ones would be bringing Final Fantasy or Anime NPCs into Faerun. 74. First DLC- alchemy/blacksmithing skills available 75. EVERYONE will be romanceable. Even Alora. Plus, with the right DLC, Wilson as well.
66. There would be at least three mods adding naked 3d female bodies. No male mod would be found. 67. There would be at least 3 high res texture packs released by modders even if the game already looked gorgeous without them.
68. You will be able to stealth through the entire game as a fighter, in full plate, and 6 dex by taking alternate routes through bad guys.
69. You will always one hit kill everything you sneak up on.
70. Players would complain that certain spells make the game too easy and doesn't give enough balance for the other classes IN A SINGLE PLAYER GAME. Those spells will be nerfed at the next patch.
71. There will be atleast 20 different minigames that your character can play. Ranging from knife throwing, cart racing, poker, blackjack, magical slot machines, and sky diving.

.
Well people already complain about that in the current release of the game... And let's not forget about the complaints that item x is overpowered...
72. Cernd is no longer a deadbeat old dad. Well, he's still a bad parent, but he's no longer old. He's young, handsome, and most likely shirtless. He becomes one of the most common victims of slashfics and the most common fanon reason that mouthbreathing fangirls do as such is because "he was gay all along!"
73. Saerileth would still exist. Maybe not by name, but conceptually, you'll see lots of underage mod character lolis running around with poor development, oddly specific romance requirements and the tendency to say things that no being with an INT of 6 or better would say even with an Assassin breathing down your back with a Staff of the Ram ready to be stabbed into it.
74. Kivan and Cernd will have a intimate relationship with each other if Abdel/Abdella do not choose them as their LI. However, this will be irrelevant due to number 65. 75. Imoen now dies at Spellhold as per her original purpose. 76. Nalia will now be an 8th level thief dualed into a 9th level mage to replace Imoen. 77. Edwin no longer shows up in Baldur's Gate II and has been replaced by a monkey mage. Quite literally a monkey as a mage. 78. Cernd is now a totemic druid instead of a shapeshifter.
79. Demogorgon's role as a villain is greatly expanded; however he has also been made softer and more cartoonish to appeal to the minor and tween audience. Watcher's Keep is done over as a sort of combination zoo/funhouse.

Well, Pillars of Eternity is coming out this year and it's done exactly in the style of the Baldur's Gate games. Though it's made as a true spiritual successor to the games.
80. I would never play with BG, because i don't care with video games these days. I would play with Heroes of Might and Magic and StarCraft in my free time.
Seems to be a lot of hate between the female slashfic writers and the "Lez mod only!" bros around here. . .
To be fair, I think if it were released today, especially by BioWare, all love interests would be "bisexual", at least in the case of the main character. Except Viconia, who would probably be rewritten canonically as an aggressive bisexual that attempts to seduce every member of the party.
81. (Dullest, but probably the most obvious.) It would be Dragon Age set in Faerun.
82. In an interview, Bioware would say that it was inspired by A Song of Fire and Ice aka Game of Thrones, for people that have never read the books. 83. There would be whining about how a patch hasn't came out seven months after the last patch. 84. Due to the whining the patch would be canceled in favor of creating a whole new sequel! 85. The sequel will force you to play as a protagonist that can close demon portals, and the only way to close them is through magic in your hand. 86. In order to combat the demon portals, PC will need allies. 87. The first two people announced are: Kivan, he's going to be an advisor, and Jaheira, because she needs to be your meddling Harper. 88. In the sequel, Jaheira will hit on your new PC, even if she was the Bhaalspawn's LI. 89. Imoen's Spirit will be the bad guy of this Sequel. 90. Imoen's alignment will be changed to Chaotic Evil for the sequel.
92. In this new sequel it is promised that you can have multiple strongholds in each region of the game! 93. In this new sequel there are only two regions you can travel between, the Baldur's Gate Region, and the Amnish Region. 94. You only get one stronghold in the Baldur's Gate region, and that is Beregost. 95. New character is announced! Meet Drizzt Do'Urden! He will help you fight against Imoen's Spirit! He is only romancible by a female human, but will sleep with elven females just for funsies. 96. New character announced! @elminster ! He's your magic advisor, and tells you where to find the demon portals!
@Loremaster - Most of the things I've written come from other games...for instance, most of my last post is basically making fun of Dragon Age: Inquisition. lol
98. There are now 200+ spells, and feats. Some of which you can create yourself! 99. There is now a create item function where you can use blacksmithing, alchemy, inscription, and many more! 100. Great Weapon Fighters/Guardian Fighters start out strong at the start of the game, but towards the end game, they are really lack luster. 101. Control Wizards start out weak, but towards the end game, they become really OP. 102. The most OP Hybrid combination will be Devout Cleric/Hunter Ranger.
Note: I don't know much about 4e, except from what I've played with the Neverwinter MMO.
I think I'd never have played it - I'm too old to start playing anything other than point and click mystery type games from scratch, and I've never played anything other than BG + NWN.
104. Just as you'd got used to playing the current version, and bought all the neat little accessories they'd suddenly bring out BG EE 1.5 - and all your purchases would be rendered useless.
105. There would be an expansion/DLC every ten minutes that you would just HAVE to have to get that new sword. Which is in fact just a re-skin you could make your self in MS Paint. * I'm looking at YOU E.A. *
106. You start with two NPC slots, additional companions cost money.
107. The only free companion is Tiax, you have to buy the rest along with the slots from 106. 108. Tiax only joins up with Chaotic Evil characters, so if you play a good aligned character you have to buy Imoen, or any other good aligned character you want. 109. Clara is made into a full-fledged NPC! However, when you get to the Slayer Transformation part of the game she gets chunked instantly. 110. There will be no bringing back Clara via cheat console, or mod. 111. There won't be a tool set for the game.
114. It would be possible to swap sword/shield and bow. 115. There would be a difference between armor and evasion 116. Party members would automatically follow the controlled character without getting stuck 117. You could swap party members, still have the same XP distribution in your party and not break romances or quests 118. The inventory would always be sorted 119. The party would only draw their weapons in a fight
121. The genie's first riddle in the Circus would be replaced with "What is 2+2?". The possible answers would be "A million", "Four", and "I want to be a dragon genie!".
