Baldur's Gate 2 in a futuristic way

Imagine having BG2 in the 20th century. Guns instead of sword. Bullet-proof vest instead of armor. Snipers instead of crossbows. Dwarves and Gnomes make computers instead of armour. Differnt types of weapons sold at differnt prices. Grenades are more expensive while a pistol is cheap.

I cannot possibly imagine BG2 set in any other time other than the one it is in already.
BG2 in the 20th Century? It wouldn't work for me.

With machine guns on the market protection from normal missiles would be very useful

Unless they are firing +1 bullets...

Well, would you still be the spawn of bhaal, or would they make you something else, like spawn of rambo and give you super fighting bonuses and stuff?

Have you tried Deus Ex?? It's REALLY great and can be compared to BG IMO. It's in first person but it's not a shooter game. You gain exp. with quests, the way you solve them, and have different specializations to put your skill points into.....very good....and addictive....

Fallout/Fallout 2 and there could be Fallout 3 (I hope that guys from Interplay finally will realize that there are so many people that want this game)

Yeah - let's hope they make FO:3 soon

I wouldn't compare Deus Ex to BG, but it is still a great game though
