The multiplayer allows you to build your own worlds with your own game mechanics. Everybody should try it. Recommend some servers.
Now that they're working on a modern renderer what are some good games and settings that have nice models? A Bloodborne mini-mmo?

Here's a World of Warcraft reskin still using the old renderer.
It's been a long time, but I remember in the original release there was a server where some autist basically recreated Final Fantasy 1. The overworld was build out of a grid of squared maps and there was hidden background checks running that would put you into random encounter as you traversed them with appropriate battle music.
It was an impressive display of autism at the time, but I struggle to find much about it anymore.
The entire world of Final Fantasy 1?
Was it really that large to begin with?
Maybe you mean this?

Even D&D settings like Planescape are possible.
Beamdog is a guilty of a number of different crimes. Here are the major ones.
1. The Enhanced Editions are essentially a collection of free mods that had existed for nearly twenty years. Beamdog gathered them all up, slapped "Enhanced Edition" on it and resold it as a new product. There's very very little in the Enhanced Editions that wasn't already out there, and most of it is stuff you don't want (like obnoxious character outlines).
2. The games didn't sell so well and the originals were still far outselling them, even twenty years after their release, so Beamdog had EVERY digital distributor stop selling the originals and ONLY sell the Enhanced Edition. If you want to buy a digital copy of the originals now, they're "bundled" into the Enhanced Edition. Now these scumbags can claim sales from people just wanting to buy the originals as their own.
3. The infamous 600+ bugs on launch. The game is still riddled with bugs (as even a perfunctory glance over their forums show) but the fact that it took nearly two years for them to get a game that had been working fine for 20 years to reach playability after launch is telling of their wild incompetence.
4. This is where we get to the ones that really piss people off. Beamdog couldn't just remaster the game, they had to fuck with the content too. New dialogue for existing NPCs like Jaheira, Viconia, Safana, Kivan, et cetera was written in to make the characters more progressive and leftist friendly. Beamdog shills will argue that "adding content isn't changing content XDDD" but it is when the new content changes the core personalities of the existing characters. This is in addition to adding a slew of their own LGBT (hitherto there were none in Baldur's Gate) NPCs, all flooded with OP attributes and magic items to encourage people to play them despite their cancer.
5. Siege of motherfucking Dragonspear.
