[QUOTE="Derren, post: 6166815, member: 2518"] No, not even the content. That was 100% Atari too. What WotC owned where a few names in the game. The little D&D/WotC logo in the corner of the box. When a new Baldurs Gate was announced, people thought "Yay, another Baldurs Gate game by Atari", not "Yay, another WotC licensed game using the Forgotten Realms". It is a bad thing when your core franchise needs a popularity boost from some 15 year old video games sharing which shared only some names with your setting. What is the reason for now using so much stuff from the Video games 15 years after they were released? And while it is possible I am pretty convinced that the Sundering will not even use the Story from Baldurs Gate. They just took the symbols and put it into their product because they couldn't come up with anything more eye catching than referencing a 15 year old popular video game. [/QUOTE]
