I haven't played the GOG version, but i played this ALOT with my best friend back in the days. It's not as story driven as BG or PS:T, but it has fun combat and is very hard to get through if you only choose to play with two characters (You and your friend), but is possible if you make good strategic descision. Someone gave it 1 star because he hates Beamdog. Beamdog wasn't involved in this version though and i will bump my 4 stars up to 5. It lacks some story elements for singleplayer IMO, but try it out if you want to play with a friend. I don't know if it's possible to play online anymore, but otherwise use Hamachi to emulate local Coop.
