With the critics and fans gushing over Baldur's Gate, can we expect to see a bunch of clones that try and to cash in, but there will be lot of cut corners trickery or will companies step up there game?

"Classic Role Playing Game," which are games that are directly modeled or inspired by "pen and paper" RPG systems such as Dungeons and Dragons.

Or something

Kinda, yeah. Your Baldur's Gate, Divinity, Neverwinter Nights, Pillars of Eternity. All characterized by top-down view with tactical gameplay, robust character creation, and a rich story.

Umm what do I call games like underrail, fallout 1 and 2, and arcanum. They were referred to as crpgs at one point. But this was when crpg just meant computer role playing game.
