Baldur's Gate 3 II: The Urge for a Second Playthrough

[Errorname]

Haven't played either of those games, but eh, depends on what they want to do with the sequel I suppose. Core gameplay mechanics don't need any big redesign, since it'll surely still be 5e D&D. Visually, on them if they want to change things up a bit, though I don't see much need for it at this moment.

"Standalone expansion" is probably the better term

While I've enjoyed Icewind Dale 2 over the years, I would far rather they make a better game than one they can churn out quicker. And not having unique companions would definitely make it a much worse game, not a better one.

I think it'd be acceptable for a spin-off title, although I think everyone would prefer fleshed out bespoke companions.
