NWN: Enhanced Edition

There is a new version of NWN coming out. Beamdog is working on it. They're the company that has remastered a bunch of DnD games. I.E: Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale, etc. The pre-order is $20 and you get early access. It is backwards compatible with old NWN mods.

They're upgrading some of the graphics features, enabling 4k, etc.

How long has it been...since I walked the halls of the [now name-forgotten] battle arena.

Yeah, it's not as big of an upgrade as their other games.

The big selling points are that they're fixing the master server issues. So all multiplayer servers will report correctly again. Updating the game to handle modern architecture better. (Hopefully allowing multicore use.) And they'll be consistently adding updates from what has been reported.

I can't think of a game that I have enjoyed more than NWN. If there was a modern game with all of the features that NWN had, I would be all over it. I for one am excited and hope that it at least breaths new life in the community and maybe even opens up some eyes in the gaming industry. Depending on it's success, maybe we can see a NWN 3 or game in that vein.

Is the server online 420? I haven't seen it in the list recently. I've been playing pretty regularly.

I try to keep it up every day from around 7 am - 10 pm Pacific:

Type: Role Play
Server: ThrobbleServ
Module: Smith Hold

Let me know if you can (or can't) see it, I haven't been able to test it on our new ISP.

Hahah I figured you would have sent me a message on Steam...Yes I got it...I was messing around in Godspire...Unfortunately it seems I was too stupid to keep a backup of the database (I know right?)...So I'll have to figure out how to recreate the DB then I can bring it back up (I hope).  It still has the portal to Smith Hold ;)

I'll see about logging in one of these days.  I also have LM up on HTTPS (something I put off for way too long), so you can securely access the site at https://lucidmagic.net
