I must admit that the main reason I'm thinking of getting this version is for the multiplayer support. I remember wanting to play this ages ago with a friend, and we had the hardest time adjusting our computer settings to play a short session. I think playing this game with friends and strangers will be the real reward of this version, and how multiplayer is implemented will determine whether I buy it, since most other changes seem possible via mods.
I honestly see no other reason why I would seriously consider buying this, but it also makes me seriously doubt whether or not I should buy the version, since a lot of things would simply be ridiculous in multiplayer, such as meeting other players with 25 in all stats, or starting with characters with 18 in four or more stats. I think a point buy system like in Planescape Torment would fix a lot of issues I would have in this regard.
