The Baldur's Gate games aren't the Infinity Engine. To say that it wouldn't be BG without the IE makes no sense, to me, at least.

I'm not supporting the petition, as its rather silly and pointless. As long as it looks nice, its ok with me. The BG games didn't really have an "art" feel to their graphics, anyways (however, PS:T and IWD did, IMO). The only reason I would have for not supporting a 3D engine would be that my system probably won't run it very well.

How about a more intelligent petition, like one for story or combat? They're trying to choose between Turn-based and Real-time, why isn't anyone arguing that? How about a petition to ask the inclusion of people who know what they're doing, like makers of PS:T or the original BG games? The game is, after all, for the players. How about a petition asking for a different name (one I would probably sign)? How about a petition not asking for 2D, but simply graphics that are done RIGHT?
