''Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition'' is a remake of the role-playing video game ''Baldur's Gate'' and its expansion ''Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast''. The game was launched for Microsoft Windows on November 28, 2012, for iPad running iOS 6 or greater on December 7, 2012, for OS X on February 22, 2013, for Android on April 17, 2014, and for Linux on November 27, 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/baldurs-gate-enhanced-edition-now-available-drm-free-from-gog.4638/ )〕 The remake of ''Baldur's Gate'' was developed by Overhaul Games, a division of Beamdog. The game was published by Atari and was scheduled for the summer of 2012 but the release date was later changed to November. The release includes remastered versions of both ''Baldur's Gate'' and its expansion pack, ''Tales of the Sword Coast.'' Overhaul Games stated that the games are more than just remakes of the classic RPG and that there are many differences between the two versions.〔 〕 As of version 1.2.0, the game includes three new major NPCs which may join the party, new areas to explore, a separate arena adventure (''The Black Pits''), a revamped user interface, increased flexibility to mod the game, a new renderer, and multiplayer matchmaking abilities (which are currently in beta version).〔 〕 Overhaul Games decided to add an autoupdate function to the game and also to modify it based on suggestions made by users. Beamdog stated that the Overhaul team had added several hundred improvements to the original game.〔〔 (【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.baldursgate.com/enhancements.en.html )〕〔 〕 ==Gameplay== For all editions, the game follows 2nd Edition ''Advanced Dungeons & Dragons'', licensed by Wizards of the Coast. The game features updated multiplayer, including cross platform multiplayer, allowing players on different platforms to be able to play with each other. As of version 1.2.0, the game includes an arena adventure (''The Black Pits''), a revamped user interface, increased flexibility to mod the game, a new renderer, and multiplayer matchmaking abilities (which are currently in beta version).〔http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/22810/game-update-v1-2-0/p1〕 Major changes to the game include higher resolutions as well as different viewing modes, including widescreen, to enhance gameplay. The iPad and Android versions are described as a radical departure from the game's original interface, allowing for zooming in and out via multitouch gestures. This also allows for larger text. The tablet versions also allow for users to swipe between screens instead of clicking on tabs.〔 Ex-Bioware employee and creative director for the enhanced edition Trent Oster said, "When I describe playing a ''Baldur's Gate'' combat scenario to someone, I use the analogy of a football playbook. ... When you think about ''Baldur's Gate'' in this light, the iPad makes so much sense. In fact, I think ''Baldur's Gate'' is almost the perfect game for the touch interface—it was just released a decade early." To make the game easier, the level cap for the game was raised. Despite this, bonus quest enemies that have been added to the game are described as posing a "more vigorous challenge". In order to further ease the game, all improvements from ''Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn'' and its expansion packs were imported into the game;〔 imported elements include classes, subraces and class kits previously unavailable. When initially launched the game included the previously unavailable Blackguard kit and as of patch 1.0.2014 the Dwarven Defender, Shadowdancer, Dragon Disciple, Dark Moon Monk and Sun Soul Monk kits have since been added as well.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/16298/game-update-1-0-2014 )〕 New party members were added to the game, with each having their own associated adventures and dialogue. Like the original game the player is given full control and customization of up to six party members at a time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
