Game mechanic wise, their original titles aren't even much different in how they are setup from old Bioware titles. Specifically a combination of Neverwinter Nights, KOTOR and Jade Empire. The story is almost exactly the same as the first one, with a blend of elements from the second one, remixed into an entirely new tale.
I'm pretty sure they made them proud. They copied what was good, and improved upon what wasn't.
