A perfect remaster

The core of the game has not been changed, which is for the best. The brilliance of Planescape: Torment is kept entirely intact, but now it is guaranteed to be playable on modern systems. No more stability issues, no more widescreen issues, more graphical and gameplay customization and an improved but faithfully replicated UI. Unfinished Business mod is not yet available at the time of this review (4/13/17), that's the only thing it lacks really. Don't worry about the official screenshots showing odd sprites around the characters, that can be disabled. As for the game itself? A must play. It raised the bar for story driven RPGs and so few RPGs since then can even be compared. Its writing quality on every level obliterates modern RPGs and so does its amount of role-playing. It is a text heavy game, taking after literature and using those strengths opposed to other storytelling methods. The descriptive writing is wonderful. And unlike most other great story driven RPGs, this one remains excellent from start to finish.

Overrated

If you like RPGs you probably will enjoy playing it. But don't expect fireworks. Mechanics wise the game is super boring, so you will want to skip the fighting and get to the story ASAP. Luckily you're naturally faster than all your enemies, so you'll only be forced to fight 2 bosses. Because extra dialogue is opened with Intelligence, Charisma and especially Wisdom there's no reason for you to ever play anything other than mage. The setting may appear original if your only other exposure to fantasy was classic DnD. Other than that it's just a city of adventure with factions being copied real-life religions, philsophies and ideologies (Dustmen are buddhists, Harmonium are authoritarians, Xaositect are discordians...). Oh and there are portals that only convienetly pop up when the plot demands it. Incredible. Don't get me wrong, the game starts off very strong with the weird and alien mortuary, but once you leave it, you're greeted by slums with more thieves than there are victims and good(!) gangsters. After that you get higher class quarters and slums again. Oh and there are sewers with monsters in them. Not exactly unique. As for the apparent depth of the story, all I have to say is meh. If the deepest story you've ever experienced was something from Marvel Cinematic Universe maybe you could be amazed. Otherwise nothing to write home about. They ask you a question of "What can change the nature of man?" and let you answer it. The whole plot is undermined by one, but giant hole: there's no reason whatsoever for the non-Good Nameless One to enter the final dungeon.

Rekindled my love for Planescape

I was one of the few that purchased this game on CD release (and still have it...), and have repurchased it everytime it has come onto a platform (complete with mods). But this is honestly the best version I have played so far. Its sheer ease of use, and updating of all the little niggly things that were annoying first time round, and the general experience has been improved dramatically. All in all, it is what I want from a remastered game in every way. Highly recommended, and ignore the moaners and whiners trying to bring the review score down, they are nothing but an insult to the hard work and effort made by not only Beamdog in updating this (yes, they *have* done a lot of work, regardless of what you may think), but also to the original programmers and developers who want more people to enjoy their vision and how it was meant to be than did first time around.

I don't support original removal...

I don't support removal of buying the original separately, *ever*, or devs that do such. It's just a way for a remake (poor or not) to piggyback off the original game, including charging you more for it (cash grab) and not having to compete with the original in price or enjoyment. In that, the game and devs have already reviewed the game for me and marked it as DO NOT BUY or support us, this game is terrible. We couldn't compete with the original and even had to include it with this version to steal those sales and reviews. Beamdog are the pinnacle of such terrible practices. Worse, they show themselves as unprofessional with their entitled, childish, SJW/woke attitude by insulting anyone who doesn't praise EVERYTHING about their downgrades. So, beyond the above paragraph, I will never buy from Beamdog and advise anyone else to do the same and get the original elsewhere. Buying this to get the original or giving 5 stars, but meaning it for the original, supports this worthless company and encourages them, WotC, Hasbro and GOG in these *very* CUSTOMER UNFRIENDLY practices. Luckily, I picked these and others up before the downgrades and when the name GOG still meant GOOD and OLD (classic). Beamdog is neither. Since the original *and* it's page were removed, look at this link (the most recent archive of the original) for reviews, ratings and screenshots to compare with the current version, not to mention requirements, goodies, languages, etc of the original: https://web.archive.org/web/20170411155744/http://www.gog.com/game/planescape_torment

The most overrated game of all-time

So the original Baldur's Gate saga are my favorite games of all time, with Morrowind a close second. I loved Fallout and Fallout 2. Obsidian's Tyranny is also a favorite of mine. Now you know where I'm coming from. I'd heard of Planescape Torment all my life, and with the immense praise it receives, and the top-ten lists it occupies, I had always considered it a must-play. That's why I was surprised and saddened to see that it not only doesn't live up to the hype, it's actually not a good game. I knew that it would be dialogue and story focused, and less about gameplay; I like that! Maybe it would've been great as a visual novel. Unfortunately, it isn't that. It's a bad CRPG with terrible, tedious quest design and a world cluttered with useless NPCs and dead-end dialogue. The initial plot hook is really neat and seemed promising. You wake up from a cold slab in a mortuary. You have no memory, no name, and it's clear that this is not the first time you've "died." Sadly, over the course of the next several hours, you'll find yourself no closer to an answer; instead, you'll have to wade through tedious, soul-crushingly boring NPCs that almost have silly fetch quests to give. The main-plot quests are poorly designed, and it's easy to get stuck over and over again (it's a safe bet you'll be consulting guides and walkthroughs). Here's an example (SPOILER): You're initially charged with finding someone. You figure out you have to get through a portal but don't know how. Your sidekick tells you to that someone in the area should know. Talking to everyone in the area yields tedious quests that you assume will get the information, but they're dead-ends. The one and ONLY character who can tell you happens to be the LAST person you would think you had to talk to again. Ughh.... The sad part is, I suspect that there might be an interesting main story buried underneath all the terrible, tedious quests and boring NPCs. But it's just not worth it.
