    Doesn't BG2 use a more up to date rule system to BG1? I would guess that it would cause major problems trying to get it to be compatible.

    I would say that the most logical option, if at all, would be a patch to let you play bg1 maps/story in BG2.

    The kits give you something to look foward to when you import your character into BG2. :happy:

    I created a similar topic some time ago: "Baldur´s Gate, why not re-create it?" Making a patch like that is basically the same as re-creating it; they would need to put the game on a new engine and therefore start from scratch. Although I still believe it could be a good idea, re-creating BG1 (as its plot differs from BG2, and all...), the chances of that aren´t good... :(
