Haven't been following Beamdog news so never realised their renowned creative mastermind, Amber Scott, had left. So I guess we won't have the pleasure of her retconning the problematic elements of PST... unless they've found someone even more talented?
There's no way they won't add and change stuff, otherwise all of Beamdog's designers and writers would have nothing to do.

The only way I'm touching this is if they get MCA to do all the writing for any new stuff they add.

But I imagine it's gonna be Gaydar doing it.
He'll work as a consultant and endorse the project. Even if he doesn't work on/like it, he'll never denounce it because some of the people making it are friends.

:negative:

They have Gaider's game to work on. They didn't change any content in Icewind Dale.

If this is just meant to be part of a relaunch of some sort for the Planescape setting in general, I could see the enhancement being pretty minimal.

On the positive side, MRY seems to have a new spring in his step now the Codex has a juicier target for its hate :shittydog:
:)

I'm just teasing you guys. I have great repsect and gratitude for Gaider from Bioware days, and I haven't played Beamdog's stuff but if Avellone says it's fantastic, I trust him. It's just fun to see to watch you guys face an enemy who has taken on an even more powerful form even in the moment of your triumph.

So what NPC do you think they will add why will he be a transsexual fleeing to the outer planes to avoid persecution?

They changed IWD's gameplay a lot. It didn't have as many changes or additions to narrative elements as BG because it had a lot less in the first place.

I'm going to bet (nothing) that they won't change any narrative content other than adding the Unfinished Business cut content stuff from Qwinn's patch. They don't have the balls to do that, definitely not after what happened with SoD. If I'm wrong, feel free to laugh at me.
