I've never played any of these games, sadly. As I'm a huge RPG fan, which one should I pick, Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale?

Same. I went for Icewind Dale because it looked shorter and more polished. I think it's more action focussed and has less emphasis on story than BG. Both look very similar though, same engine. The stories are unrelated so take your pick..BG is pretty huge though. They're both pretty lightweight performance wise, playing on an HD4000 Intel card with zero issues, very smooth.

Also, Baldur's Gate on Steam is working, just no penguin icon yet on the store page.

That really depends on what you value more: an interesting story and companions with personality, or a dungeon crawl with a personality-less party you created yourself?

Ah, nice. So do both Baldur's Gate (on steam) work on Linux yet?
(Looks like they don't. Just the first one, with a beta code from the steam forums - it's a sticky there, can't miss it)
edit: just bought Baldur's Gate. Happy gaming!

I bought days ago the Sam & Max collection, it was very cheap and looks great (as any telltale game). I hope wine can handle it well. In my dreams they will support Linux lol.
Since the Linux support arrived, GOG is definitely a great option to get games, their philosophy is great.

How bug free is the Enhanced Edition in it's current state? I bought it from Beamdog's site last year but I'm willing buy it again from GOG. I know the game had a buggy start but went through a lot of improvements over time, but I'm still slightly worried about any game breaking bugs.

Thanks for thinking in us.
I'll buy it now.
PS : Glad you finally return to stay.

While I do intend to buy it as I really should play a Bioware title at some point considering they are supposed to be the local golden boy developer from where I am from, paying $20 for a game is a bit too steep for my blood at the moment.
