This game crashes and resets a lot of the time. Some kind of patch or update needs to be done. I really love that it is true to the original on the PC but hate that I lose a bit of progress from constant game error messages and software closing!

We love the Baldur's Gate for Xbox but this one is nothing like that! It is reminiscent of a bad 90s computer game. Graphics are horrible and it is hard to tell what you are looking at at times. It is also more difficult than it should be to control and navigate. This was a waste money.

It was a classic long ago. So, this makes it even more upsetting to see it simply squeezed into a Switch format. Even old pokemon games on GB color look more advanced in execution of a story and gameplay..

Thought it would be enhanced for the switch but it's still 1980's level graphics which look horrible on the switch. The controls are laggy and overall I regret buying it.

These are the games that eventually morphed into Mass Effect and Dragon Age. They're old, difficult, and AMAZING.

Deceiving game. Not worth the price.

This is not the same baldur's gate 1 & 2 that released on PS2 and Xbox. Those are Dark Alliance: Baldur's gate 1 & 2. This game plays more like Diablo 1 on PS1....yeah. Quite deceiving.
