Neverwinter Nights 2 Officially Announced
An anonymous reader writes "Looks like Atari has just announced Neverwinter Nights 2, to be developed by Obsidian Entertainment, the same ex-Black Isle folks who are making Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic 2 in conjunction with BioWare. However, it's 'scheduled for release in 2006', so we've got a while to wait." A post on the Obsidian forums has a single piece of concept art, and it's confirmed that "[Original developers] BioWare will provide tools, technology, and game assets from the original Neverwinter Nights as well as lend creative input and oversight to the development process."
2006? you could have waited until 2006 and posted this. But they it's tech news and any chance to get posted is a plus a guess
They won't.
Nobody uses Linux. And by "nobody" I mean a small enough percentage for it to be not worth it.
Is it me or is /. having a dry spell when it comes to something interesting?
WOW! A squel to another REALLY SHITTY game! I boring one at that too. Faggot RPGs.
BioWare needs to get out of the gaming business. Seriously. Their games are utterly laden with bugs. They're like Microsoft, except they sweep the problems under the carpet with eked-out updates and poor support.
The two bugs I reported a month after NWN came out - two years ago now - are still unresolved (haste and the hasted attack and a grammatical error in the inventory code).
Should another company decide to develop a decent version of NWN that doesn't leave me wishing for more and getting less (My post on the NWN forums has been archived, but I inquired about left-handed characters and animations and BioWare's official response actually was "Yeah, it's too much work for not much return. Sorry.")
ACs are modded -6. I don't read you, I don't mod you, I don't see you. Don't like it? Don't be a coward.
In what way is this funny? LOLZOR J00 HACE TEH POOR WEBHOST is not funny, it's pathetic, humour for people who think LOLZOR SOVIET BEOWULF GOATSE is the height of philosophical insight. I hope you choke on it, faggots.
