New Preview of Neverwinter Nights

Posted by Hemos on from the must-wipe-droll-from-mouth dept.

H3resy wrote to us with a new preview of Neverwinter Nights. The game continues to look great - and combined with its release date being right around Warcraft III, I suspect sleep will not be an option.

    we need more games for alternate platforms like macosx, linux, *bsd, etc.

    According to the NWN faq, the box will contain media for Windows, Linux, and MacOS.

    Not only that, but the Windows, Linux & Macintosh versions all come in the SAME BOX, so we
    dual-boosters can try it out on both systems.

    The downside here is that Bioware may have trouble determining the number of users who use Linux vs Windows vs Macintosh. So remember: if you use Linux, remember find the little postcard, check the box next to 'Linux' and send it off.

    Otherwise, they'll never know...

    It is great that it's coming out for Mac and Linux at the same time as Windows. However, be aware that the toolset (which is what really sets NWN apart from, well, everything) is Windows-only.
