Hopefully mod compatibility will be high. I don't think you'll see a fraction of the mods for the EE as we do for the original. And some of the modders moved on to NWN2 when it released and it was a better engine overall. I know some people are excited, but there's nothing wrong with the original game. This will, only serve to divide the player and modder bases. I hope I'm wrong, but since the biggest draw to this game is the custom content, it seems weird to remaster it since the best content for it is already there. There are not a whole lot of improvements that my circles are looking for in NWN.

Ohh, my sister would love to hear this. She is really big into the neverwinter series.

From what I understand, Beamdog has said all of the mods that work with the current version of the game will work with the EE as well, so it won't split the community at all. Now, whether you believe what Beamdog says or not is another matter.

Honestly i never thought neverwinter nights was a old dated game, i finished it again last year and its still that good.

Loved the story , i am skeptical on whether beamdog will do proper justice to the enhanced version . given their history...

If any game that needed a fix and upgrade its nwn 2 man that game has some serious flaws.

i loved that neverwinter nights is a D & D game but makes it so simpler compared to the older games that only after reading up on articles afer finishing the game , i understood what mechanics are used.

Dude, you've listed all those groups but left out the most important one:

Some people wouldn't trust Beamdog to remake shit, and are buying the classic NWN while they still can, before Beamdog has it pulled from the store.

You have hit the one group that beamdog fans, like the op, want to forget. Those who know the games already work, are fully functional, still work fine today, and have plenty of content. This noob's attempts to blatently fanboy everyone into buying into the beamdog con is hilarious. Buy nwn now before it is ripped from the store and replaced with exactly the same product, with a beamdog logo and treble the price tag (and all goodies removed). Op can just move on and blow the dog elsewhere.

In the bottom of the OP there should be a star followed by "advertorial"

Eh, I was a huge fan of NWN, still am, but I tend towards being in this camp. NWN isn't going to come back due to this, since it never really left in the first place, and I can't see why anyone not really interested in it before should become attracted to it now, due to minimal changes that only insiders will be able to appreciate. Except maybe that I suppose it's going to be released on Steam, so I guess there is a slight chance of reaching a bigger audience than before - namely all those people who only ever buy games on Steam. That's nothing to do with Beamdog's work on the new version though, only with distribution channels.

Btw, the thread title seems an unfortunate choice to me, since the "Campaign" is the last thing that NWN deserves a revival for. What makes it so good is that you can completely ignore that campaign and still have fun for years with all the topnotch community stuff created for it. True, but somehow I doubt that Beamdog would be able to fix them.

That's what I was trying to get across without saying it. You'll note they're all brand new accounts posting that all over the place.

How sure you are about that? ;)

For many, I think it was the exact opposite... :P

Nope. We've already gone over this before. Maybe these threads need to be bumped.

NWN 1 Enhanced Edition. Beamdog

"Breaking News" Beamdog Strikes Agian

Buy NWN1 ASAP.

Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition Beamdog is making a small initial investment which they assume will pay off greatly, as it did with their previous "EE"s. Wow. An actual list of a two more people who worked on the original also working at Beamdog. I'm still not impressed.

Not to discourage you from providing free advertisement for Beamdog, though. I'm sure you really do believe they have your best interests at heart.

Edit: I really wish gog would provide some sort of feedback when it rejects posts. I tried to post this many times until I finally realized I had a syntax error in one of the brackets. Fixing that made the post go through immediately. [I also shortened one of the quotes above]

I won't buy this, at least for a long while, because I had my fun. I still play nwn but they won't be adding much for a person like me.

Now in my old days, when I had a server of my own, a weekly campaign that lasted for years, and easily spent a thousand hours building a world to share with others, then I'd be all over this.

That's what this is for. For builders and players who play online.

New features built into the code, allowing hardcoded aspects to change with scripts, and to update the shaders and processor use. These things can help a lot. Also, the server will be optimized for modern pcs so you don't get 20 or 50 or 75 players, but many, many more.

So for folks who want to stay playing or keep playing the best rpg ever made for a multilayer group, then this could be great.

The only thing is beamdog. There's no way to feel out how their product will turn out. They have strict no late nights rules to be good to their employees, which is good. But then release incomplete garbage.

We will see how it goes. I hope the best for them, though!
