    That looked incredibly slow and tedious if you aks me. The original score is gone (although it of course is a beta). I can see why it was cancelled.

    I can only imagine how painful it must be to play BG that way without a mouse. I could take a few changes on the engine if the story and the spirit of the game were left unchanged.

    Makes me wonder how did the engine work for Dark Alliance, which never really got my interest, anyway.

    Dark Alliance was so terrible, it was diablo but worse. Normally that would not be completely bad, but it had the Baldur's Gate name... for the love of god it had the name... and spoiled it.

    Loading times for Conversations looked pretty tedious.
