The sourcecode isn't the same as a copy of the game. I've got it on disk somewhere, there must be tens of thousands of them, but you can't work back from a copy of the game to recreate the sourcecode. Which means you can't do an "enhanced edition" since that requires the sourcecode, but you can still have the game as it came out on the original disk.
You can still get the regular game on GoG.com. You are correct that the source code was lost so we probably won't ever see an EE of Ivewind Dale 2.
Ahh cool. I didn’t realise GoG had it. It must have been in the last year or two. I had the old disks too. Flipping love that game but could never get it to work on my modern laptop - I’m not very good with mods and emulators. Great that GoG sort that bit out.
Icewind Dale II is fairly cheep too. It should work with no issue, it comes with latest update and I think you can even do wide screen.
Given it literally uses 5E mechanics for the vast majority of what it does, and better than Solasta, even, for the most part, I'm rather confused by this. It does have surfaces like Divinity, but they don't play the same central role.
I just finished up the first dungeon. IWD throws a ton of enemies at you. I can't remember how many times I've started this game and found out my characters suck haha
Can you play turn based? Because I'm old and can't play video games worth a darn.....and have no interest in being frustrated for that much money.
