I wonder if they will fix the ranged weapons system, for example there weren't any +1/2/3 arrows in the campaign and unless you had some Arcane Archer levels your magic ranged weapons were really weak compared to melee weapons.

There was also a problem with attacks of opportunity when an enemy was hit by a ranged weapon, the NPC will rush toward you bypassing all the attacks of oppurtinity :\

Why are people citing lame modded Aribeth models as if they are originals?

This is original Aribeth:

You honestly dont think the new model looks better? I understand you're a purist in that regard but in a general sense- You dont like it better than the original?

They look like plastic, similar to Toy Story. The original Aribeth looks better: model, textures, face, color scheme - the lot. Not even Project Q has better models than the original. More polys and higher res textures aren't everything. It's about form and style. But yeah, besides that, none of the Beamdog/modded models are authentic to original art assets.

Basically, this is just a pathetic attempt at building hype. Everyone in Twitch stream was going "Wow, wow wow!" and rubbishing the original Aribeth that people haven't complained about the look of for years. I feel sorry for the original artist, who worked well within the constraints of the time. The Beamdog rabble are disgusting.

I really think in all truthfulness that you are probably the foremost expert on this game (even if I dont agree about the model upgrade hahahaha) with a ton of reach, huge audience and alot of people like myself who find you highly intelligent and respect your opinion.

I also feel that you could really really benefit this game in countless ways, including the direction of its development and in promoting it along with promoting your ideas of things that could improve it. This could end up being such a fantastic game with massive longevity and having you giving input and being a proponent would go a long way in making that happen. Having you as a detractor also carries alot of weight in the opposite direction.

I love NWN and want to really see this be a success and wish you would or could find a way to be part of making that happen.

tbqh, that is laughable. I am a scrub compared to people like Rogueknight 333. I am just a commentator.

Again, tbqh, it wouldn't bother me if NWN:EE crashes and burns. The community would easily survive.

Yah I mean if you don't like the idea of EE, then if it fails there's no skin off anyone's teeth. Community will keep on keeping on like Lilura said.

Well I dont think its going to fail, I think its going to be quite successful once things get rolling on Steam.

I just think it could be a whole lot better and have better input in its direction with Lilura and people like her as proponents. The end result could be a far better game (I'm not really speaking in terms of economic success because I think the EE will get that regardless)

The community will move on to the EE , even those who are hesitant right now but perhaps that happens after development when their input could have helped guide the the thing to begin with and improve the overall result.

Hope that makes sense.

Let's see what the Codex thinks. Give me a :Mif you want to see NWN:EE crash and burn so hard that Beamdog go out of business (or acknowledge my parrot-harvesting agenda).

DarKPenguiN The agenda of my blog commentary is only to expand and refine original incarnation narratives. I'm pretty unconcerned with Beamdog, blog-wise. Basically, I've written them off and removed references of the EE from my prime NWN write-up.

I dont want it to crash and burn but I gave a parrot anyhow because I understand the need and desire to harvest parrots and can never turn down the opportunity to be a bro.

edit- Reported you for parrot harvesting =D

I'm just a mere penguin who wants to get high and play some computer games I like- Not a battle hardened crusader.

It seems i'm outnumbered, outgunned and without enough parrots to fortify myself and make a stand.

Damn you codex...DAMN YOU! Why must you hurt me so!

You promise? I'll be the best damn torchbearer that ever did live!

This isnt going to be a repeat of that Russian bride I ordered who promised she loved and respected me? Right?
