Buy only if you don't mind ruining your original BG saga experience. Writing is poor, game is buggy and you can't even play it without buying BG:EE. IMHO developers should have used the infinity engine to create an entirely new story from scratch, but unfortunately they proved they don't have what it takes. This game is a trap, fall into nostalgia and lose money...
When I read the announcement that Baldur's Gate would get an HD treatment, I do have to admit I was very excited about such great news. But excitement slowly faded away after they made crappy excuses about a bazillion things that would prevent a proper remake. I'd advice you get the original instead, there are mods which can make it even better than this crappy remake, without ripping off your money.
