I'm trying to remember from before:  In what way is this version "enhanced"?

Bug fixes, engine improvements, new content, HD resolutions would be the primary "enhanced" thingys.

It seems that people are splitted about this enhanced edition: http://steamcommunity.com/app/228280/discussions/ (http://steamcommunity.com/app/228280/discussions/)  :o

Still have the original game and expansions on CD, will wait until they get their act together before buying the enhanced edition.

Yes, I had read some reviews a few weeks back (don't have the links now) and there were quite a few that said the graphics enhancements and added content were ok but not so much as to warrant a $20.00 purchase....in the end it is just a prettier looking Baldurs Gate but if you had played the original you might be left disappointed that this enhanced version didn't have much more to offer.  I read this stuff but in fairness I haven't purchased nor played the enhanced version.

Tempting.

I so loved the original, but IIRC it was mostly on rails. I wonder how its gameplay stands the test of time?
