This is a relatively recent interview with @chrisavellone.bsky.social (February 9, 2026). While the topic is "How Characters Come Alive" by blockheaddcc(twitter account name), it's primarily about "Annah-of-the Shadows, a tiefling thief in Planescape: Torment."

I dislike how the article downplays BG2... the romances in that game were wild, very different from the BioWare formula used later.

You'll argue, get into love triangles (that lead to duels!), get dumped, have a child, see your love kidnapped & killed... not to mention they're all toxic as hell lol

Here is a list of games that spontaneously came to mind and were inspired by IE games. Therefore, no guarantee of accuracy.

* Torment: Tides of Numenera
* Serpent in the Staglands
* Pillars of Eternity 1&2
* Dragon Age Origins
* Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous
* Black Geyser

Well, after several decades of BG(2), it's no secret that the games revolve around Bhaal, the god of murder. For those who want to delve deeper, here's a summary video:

The games in the "Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance" series are not based on the Infinity Engine and are not part of the main storyline. They are action role-playing games similar to the Diablo games.

This is important to know to avoid confusing them with the games that use the Infinity Engine.

Here is another beautiful Infinity Engine music cover. This time it is from the game Planescape: Torment (PST).

It is an Enhanced Edition of the classic IWD.It contains QoL improvements and a graphical overhaul.As I am a fan of the IE games,I can say it is a great dungeon crawler game with a lot of places to visit and battles to win.There are also some mods out there and the modding community is still active.
HAS ANYONE PLAYED THIS. IS IT FUN.

This might be interesting for modders: Here's a link to Blender assets which some of them can be used completely free of charge (CC0). The "Human Base Meshes v1.4.1" seems particularly interesting.

The introduction to Icewind Dale 2 was voiced by Kath Soucie, as far as I know.At least that's what the source says("Maralie Fiddlebender(Synchronisation)").
It is very warm&inviting,&the diary-style introduction fits well.

PART 1 of X:
I've created another demo for the IE Autospriter. This time it's an eagle model created with Blender. The video shows a spammed Candlekeep with eagles and a transformation into one. However, the eagle is so small that beginner fortunately mistakes are barely noticeable.

GameStar (a German gaming magazine) also reports on the mod, but in a very short article.

Surprisingly, there is an official website called Infinity Engine, but it has nothing to do with BioWare's Infinity Engine. It appears to be the website of a miniature model shop.

Some IE games also utilize this. For example, text on paper, either in a book (Enhanced Edition) or on a scroll (Classic). The Classic version places more emphasis on the thematic atmosphere with the background image, while the EE version focuses more on user-friendliness.

"[...]signals could be a much swifter method of studying plant health and stress[...]" - Credit: Alex Kentsis

This reminds me of the druids in the BG games. They care deeply about the welfare of wildlife and plants play a big part in that.

I think even Arundel in Icewind Dale would approve.
Researchers have designed an electrode that allows for a month-long, noninvasive method of studying physiology and health in a diverse array of plants.

What a great collection of games^^!
Besides the "Heart of Winter" box, there is the Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear Collector's Edition box.

By the way, I should mention that there are some cool mods for IE games and there is still an active modding community out there.
just need the Heart of Winter expansion box now 🤩

Ah yes, the "Lady of Pain." Did you know you can encounter her in the IE game PST(EE)? Although seeing her in the game was exciting, the encounter never ended well for the Nameless One (unless there's an encounter I'm unaware of).
"Nobody's quite sure what she is. She's the Lady of Pain, and given that, most other facts are extraneous."

The Lady of Pain, protector of Sigil.

I've created my first model with animation in #Blender. It's not perfect, but for an IE AutoSpriter demo, I think it's pretty decent.
