Never Winter Nights 3

[Erwin van der Poel 2]

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.

I dunno, I'm enjoying the new Pathfinder beta far more than I enjoyed the BG3 beta. Maybe?

.....did you miss the reveal that Baldur's Gate 3 is happening?

There needs to be a meh option.

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.

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.

Well this may be the exact dilemma with reviving that franchise. 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?

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.

After playing BG3 I gotta say I'm in agreement here

We'll probably see a new edition in a year or two, and I'll bet a videogame gets released around the same time or shortly after.

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.
