Do any of you recommend : Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition (steam)

Don't get any of the enhanced editions. They're made by beamdog, a company that "improved" baldur's gate by making an invincible tranny NPC that your entire party immediately starts sucking the dick of and then made a terrible extra expansion pack with tons more of this shit.
Oh the NPC wasn't always invincible. Which was funny. (You didn't get a rep hit for killing them either.)

Bah ha ha. They had to add invincibility because players kept killing them off? Oh, that's great.

Also, to repeat what has been said many, many times before... its D&D, a literal realm of magic. Nobody cares you used to have a schlong.
 
It's a great game with a very beautiful and emotional story attached. It's combat isn't the best by any measure, but it certainly isn't unplayable I think.

Also, Fall-From-Grace is best girl.

Especially since, in the original Baldur's Gate, there's a side quest where you have to retrieve someone's belt, and find it's been stolen by a pervy ogre with a leather fetish, and when you kill it it also drops a "Cursed Girdle of Masculinity/Femininity" that changes the wearer's sex. "Ogre with a fetish" is a more realistic depiction of the sort of troons we see nowadays than Mizhena was.

The magic sex change thing pops up again in BG2 with Edwin btw, in the FR setting just getting a wizard to change you into the other sex is basically fucking canon. So trans is a fucking nothingburger canonically. It's so fucking stupid.
 
I recommend Shadowrun Hong Kong for great gameplay, graphics and writing. Or Shadowrun Dragonfall. They go for five bucks on Steam, even less during a sale.

The Planesgate and Baldurs Gate series is a bit too old school for me in writing and gameplay. I'm sure I'll enjoy them when I do, but I can think of quite a few games off the top of my head that I'd feel like playing through before then.

Is it actually this bad and has it infected Planescape Torment?

I am retarded and like Steam achievements.

You should pirate or play a GOG version if possible. Beamdog doesn't deserve your money, but there is convenience in Steam & convenience is king.
 
On sale for -90% right now, cheapest it's ever been on Steam.

And so I broke my promise not to buy any more CRPGs until I finish the ones I've already started literally less than 12 hours after mentioning it in another thread.

Players didn't even kill that NPC because it was a tranny. They did it because that tranny was worth a disproportionate amount of xp.

I'm looking for an interesting, story rich RPG and this looks like it might be interesting despite the graphics.

Thank you for your feedback.
Enhanced Version is done by Beamdog so no I don't recommend it. They can't even afford a sign on their door let alone work on a game.

They also managed to break the GUI and Multiplayer.

Wait....the tranny was invincible? Gee, I wonder why they did that. I still don't understand how they reconcile being 'trans' with the fact that it shouldn't even be a thing in universe because magic makes it easy to literally change sexes. There is literally a cursed girdle that does that in BG1. It doesn't make logical sense in universe

Plus i'm still surprised the troons haven't lost their collective shit over 'edwina' in BG2....then again that would requiring finding out about it, which requires playing it, which we all know troons don't do
