February 22, 20214 yr Dear Obsidian, Waiting for NWN 3 for such a long time, please make it happen!!!! NWN 1 and 2 where so enjoyable, great story's and characters. Or a good remaster will do for the time being In both cases I would like it to be real time with pause and not a turn based combat system. Really had a amazing time playing Pillars 1 and 2, Tyranny and many more of your games. Hope the time comes for a new Forgotten Realms adventure soon. Edited February 22, 20214 yr by Erwin van der Poel
February 22, 20214 yr I dunno, I'm enjoying the new Pathfinder beta far more than I enjoyed the BG3 beta. Maybe? Free games updated 3/4/21

February 23, 20214 yr As someone for whom BG3 is meh but who loves the Forgotten Realms and craves an FR game (which is not the same as craving a D&D game), Obsidian making NwN3 is exactly what I myself have been hoping for.
February 23, 20214 yr I'll be honest I liked NWN1 but NWN2 left something to be desired. Would great for another from the Onyx but they would have to learn from their mistakes.

The two games were very different from one another, and for many fans they liked one or the other but not both. I for one loved 2 and hated 1. So exactly which way do you go with 3? More like 1 or more like 2?
February 26, 20214 yr I wouldn't mind another (non-5E) D&D game, but they could choose a more interesting setting than the Forgotten Realms. I'd only be really interested in a Forgotten Realms game if it was set in the Moonshaes. But seeing as any new D&D game would almost have to be 5E...meh.

February 28, 20214 yr Well, looks like 5e will be getting a lot more video game attention before WotC moves on to whatever's next. WotC is now the revenue driver of Hasbro. See: https://www.geekwire.com/2021/hasbro-reorganizes-support-big-growth-dungeons-dragons-magic-gathering/ From what I can tell, The Hidden Path Entertainment game will likely be an animated game, and the OtherSide Entertainment game likely a gothic-horror game. Just as the CEO of WotC said last year, they're trying to make D&D games in a range of different genres, so the odds are, sadly, very low they will make another D&D old-school cRPG besides BG3. BG3 checks off that box, and so I don't see what different genre box a NwN3 would check off.

And a Starfinder take would be better imo There's a lot of speculation on the Owlcat forum, based on some recent Owlcat ads for people they're looking to hire, that after WotR they are going to shift to a Starfinder game.

I suppose ideally you would have a strong campaign of NWN2, with gamemaster/modding/host your own adventure toolbox of NWN1. Personally all I care for is the singleplayer campaign. And considering the OP requested it on Obsidian forum, it could lead to conclusion that NWN3 should follow NWN2 rather then NWN1. Personally, I care not for DnD. But I would take another cRPG campaign from Obsidian. Be it DnD, Pillars, Pathfinder, or whatever other IP they could work with. If they were still independed I would suggest Divinity: Original Sin spinoff, while Larian is busy with BG3 - in good old Obsidian tradition in making better sequel/spinoffs to existing franchases on existing engines.

I would agree with this.
March 1, 20214 yr Now I just want to play both of them again! But I would have to rebuy them on GOG at $19.99 apiece. Put them on sale already. I'm conjuring up a druid/barbarian character in my head already. Let's call him/her a barbearian ahah.

March 2, 20214 yr 4th edition is severely underrated. 5th edition is like a dumbed down version of 4th edition.
