#2The book "Magician" by Raymond E. Feist, which this game came from, is a great read and interesting in as much as the book came after and grew out of a long-running RPG campaign, if I remember correctly.

It is, would be interesting as a movie or game.

That's a good shout actually. It would make a terrific film in the right hands.

#5Wish the game was remade, it has many interesting concepts, especially for its time, but the visual presentation and some gameplay elements hadn't aged well.
It was an example of an early open world game. The most interesting part of the game is the first chapter. The game very directly makes you go south towards Krondor, and the path north contains some large enemy packs. But if you manage to defeat the two large enemy packs, it gets much easier later on and you can take a very long detour around the entire map. This means you can access some high level equipment and spells early on in the game. The game designers actually planned for this possibility, because there are some quests in those areas that can only be completed in the first chapter (normally you'd explore these areas around the third chapter at least).

#6Betrayal in Antara (the sequel to Krondor) was like Skyrim to me. The reviews mostly focused on the outdated graphics, but we've long since moved beyond "graphics keep getting better" and I suspect it would be more happily reviewed in 2022 than it was back then.
Also, I consistently think about art (music, games, movies, books, etc), that while you may not have massive international fame, your work might still be somebody's favorite.

I played BaK several times and never knew that.

While the game itself is not getting remade, there is an “inspired by” game in the works: https://www.callofsaregnar.com/

There's also "Krondor, The Betrayal" where he turned the game back into a book! Unfortunately not as good as his earlier works.
