> a bold reboot with significant new character colour / story twists improving the campaign that originally came with the base game playing this feels like chewing cliched cardboard
> Weidu-style options to install completed / refashioned features & content that were cut or released rushed / substandard to what we have evidence as being primarily intended, that people working on the game / fans thought would have been "cool(er)" > more fixes / optimisation for systems old & new for what was a notoriously buggy & chuggy game, even on reasonably powerful machines when originally released > optimised integration of the numerous bugfixes & patches made by the NWN2 community over years Personally I'm not fussed re: graphical / sound improvements on this title, but I'd like. Because even though there's still an audience for the game, the audience is "stuck in time" for a game that is now being crushed by newer titles and an enhanced version wouldn't (statistically speaking) surpass the investment nor compete with better games already established. I love NWN2, more than NWN1, but at this point, NWN2 is more of a risk than an assured success. So no, a remaster o enhanced version, at this point in life, is very much never going to happen. Wizards of the Coast owns D&D, but they don't own Neverwinter Nights 2.
How much."Īnd Hasbro says: lol who tf are you, get out. So not even Obsidian has the rights to remake it, and if they did, Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart said in a talk that NWN2 almost bankrupted them because the game involved too many resources they didn't know they needed (which explains why there are so many missing animations and some spells and FX are half baked) so he has some PTSD about it.Ī young and hopeful team of Developers comes to Hasbro and say: "I want to remake/enhance a title you couldn't care less about because you're not in the gaming industry, you just so happen to have the rights to it by default. The rights to NWN2 were in the hands of Atari, which was later absorbed by EA and so now Hasbro has the right to its name.
Beamdog team is made up of people who used to work at Bioware, so the transition was pretty much obvious. Never did, never will.Īll the IE games + NWN1 were made by Bioware.
