Warning: I didn't finish the game yet, but what I've seen already is thrilling. The plot is very interesting, the UI change are very good once we're used to them (and backported for free to BG:EE and BG2:EE), we can see really crowded places, an actual army in the game, and overall good writing for my tastes (much better than 2012 BG:EE new content to my opinion). How NPCs recruitment is handled is also most excellent, they are not our puppets anymore, and I am actually caring for them, something that does not happen in original BG (and therefore BG:EE since they do not have right to touch original content). There may be bugs left (especially with multiplayer) but do not forget that BG:EE is still offering new patches four years after its release - how many game company still support games that long? I'm pretty sure a new patch will come soon to address the most serious issues remaining. My main regret is how foreign languages are handled by Beamdog in all EE games, but this does not apply to SOD which is English only anyway.
