Can do, good sir, can do! Still have not got around to playing the first game in the series, so this will give me a great opportunity to do so.80Maxwell08 said:

I had so much fun gibbing the xvarts in bg1. Then reloading the fight 800 times until I finally got lucky and beat the shadow dragon and the demilich in bg2 for their phat lewtz.
I've played Baldur's gate 2 once, and although i liked it, it was really hard to understand because all the stats we shown in a way that only D&D players (if i'm correct) could understand. i hope that they change that. so the the same stats of the game are there but they are shown in a way normal for video games these days. not because i have any problem with D&D but it is really not logical for someone who never played that game, and i saw the Manuel of Baldur's gate. i like my game deep, but i don't want to read a book just to play it.
It's going to keep the 2nd edition D&D rules. They have been constantly saying new info on their twitter but the news here is very slow to update.Nikolaz72 said:
I've debated for a while whether or not to get the original Baldur's Gate's but decided not to cos they probably don't hold up but now I can get this version. (and see what all the people who hate current BW liked in its 'glory days')
No, they don't. WotC didn't like the way Atari was treating their property and successfully sued to retract those rights. If Atari is doing this, it is likely with WotC's blessing.80Maxwell08 said:
Yeah, who would want another Neverwinter, one of the most awesome examples of mod-friendly game design ever made that is still played by thousands of people?Nikolaz72 said:
Not that Neverwinter, The other neverwinter. The dungeoncrawler game that came up not too long ago.PrinceOfShapeir said:
You are talking about NEVERWINTER NIGHTS.
Im talking about NEVERWINTER.
Short for Bioware game. NWN.
Short for this game. NW.
Time spent playing NWN. 1000hourscountingwithsequels.
Time spent crying about NW. 1000hourscounting.
Dont jump to conclusions. I said Neverwinter not Neverwinter Nights. Friggin geeze.
Changing the ruleset would almost certainly mean redoing every area to ensure an appropriate challenge curve because not everything is the same across rule versions. As it is they only need some slight tweaks to the most annoying areas.80Maxwell08 said:
Since I play my RPGs single player, I couldn't get into NWN due to the lack of a party system, engaging official campaign(I hear that expansions helped with that) and annoying(to me) interface. I wish this was not the case because I'm told there are some excellent player-built adventures, but there you go.PrinceOfShapeir said:
Also, I can't stand the horrible 3D graphics of NWN, but still enjoy the environments of the Infinity Engine games.
Go read my posts or check Trent Oster's twitter. They have detailed quite a bit of what they are planning but the news here is still slow.Knight Templar said:

"100% chance of new voice actors for new characters"
This makes me a little sad, but the old characters will keep their VA's so it's not bad.
