Yeah it has nothing to do with the child of Bhaal story but it is based on forgotten realms.

Absolutely correct.

BG: DA is nothing alike real BG games, it won't be even a RPG (it's action/RPG or action/arcade/RPG), it is completely another game and it is a shame that its developers are trying to make money on somebody else's success.
I don't think it'll be worth looking at.

Yep. And it's a realtime action game: no pausing, no parties. Does any of this sound remotely like BG2? :D

Its also using some freaky 3D engine.

Well what do you expect on the trashy PS2?

So basic it can't even handle the IE.
