Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition mobile game

Back in 1998, the year was memorable for some gamers because some of them had to take notes of quest conditions in order to then get stuck into the virtual world of Forgotten Realms in the well-publicised Baldur’s Gate. It’s a really cool RPG game. A lot of time has passed since then, and sometimes nostalgia sets in. Gamers are increasingly hanging out on tablets and other devices, indulging in memories of being immersed in the very same Baldrs Gaete

A few years later

 Laptop users and apple gadget owners got a glimpse with Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition. But not everyone actually liked what they saw. We should say that the fans of the game have long been able to pump the initial version of the various graphics mods, as well as special additions to the advanced level. Unfortunately, for many gamers the Russian-language version was not followed, although the storyline is replete with translations into several languages. To date, there is full optimization for modern software and it supports high resolution and hardly any braking. But apart from such advantages, there are numerous bugs of the original version that they tried to get rid of over the years. If you look at this “brainchild” creates the impression that the developers pursued mercantile goals to get money for free mods for the ancient game.

In the past, high quality art with the image of the virtual world of Forgotten Realms could play a bad joke on the PC thanks to its graphical data. The developers had to downgrade it so that it could be played on the first monitors that appeared in users’ homes. Today the first version is perfect for modern displays and high-performance devices. Unfortunately Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition is not worthy of high scores, because it has a lot of shortcomings that do not dock with the new advanced gadgets.
