Beamdog, the dev behind the upcoming Baldur’s Gate Enhanced revamps, is hoping that its dabbling with the franchise will eventually lead to the development of Baldur’s Gate 3.<\/p>\n
Speaking to GameSpy, Beamdog\/Overhaul’s Cameron Tofer stated pretty clearly that “Baldur’s Gate 3 has been our long term goal.”<\/p>\n
He was quick to point out that there was nothing in place at the moment, so don’t get too excited juuuuust<\/em> yet.<\/p>\n “We have a lot of things to put in place before such a project can be launched. So currently there is no such project but that’s the one we want to do. Our thoughts have been that Enhanced Edition for BG 1 and 2 just make sense before there’s any Baldur’s Gate 3.”<\/p>\n So a developer that makes old-school games, wants to create a sequel to said games, in the spirit of those games? Obviously publishers won’t be too keen on that – there isn’t enough dubstep and shooting in that to sell really well.<\/p>\n So where else are old-school game sequels, true to their predecessors currently being punted? Hmmm…<\/p>\n “We’re totally thinking Kickstarter. It just makes so much sense and solves so many problems. I think what Brian [Fargo] is doing with Wasteland is very interesting.”<\/p>\n I would pay for this. Get that Kickstarter initiative started, and I will be first in line.<\/p>\n Do you want to see a Baldur’s Gate sequel? Or do you think the series wrapped up when it needed to, with a fitting end?
