There's a thread over at the Bio boards.

 

Obsidian (JE Sawyer):

 

Please, please restore some of the OC game content before taking our 20-level chars to the planes.

 

It's not too late to make this a TOTSC-style expansion.

 

Edit:

 

By the way, who decided to ship this...

 

...on September 11?!

Edited April 10, 200718 yr by Tasaio

Anyone else having flashbacks to the EB preorder for Baldur's Gate 3?

Neato.

Meh. The date is irrelevant. 9/11 is a day. A day that many things happen on both good, and bad. Heck, plenty of people have birthdays on that day. You sayin' they shouldn't celebrate just because of what occured in 2001? Come on.

 

Anyways, hopefully this allows us to continue the campaign with our OC character. If not, it'll still be fun.

Hooray.

Legacy of the Biff.

(reads through the overwhelmingly enthusiastic responses)

 

What's wrong, guys?

I think it is a little late for April Fools.

Um, what?

 

This isn't a joke, Sand. Check the link to EB games.

 

Or am I missing something here?

EBgames is irrelevant. Only thing that matters is an Official announcement and so far there hasn't been any.

What he means is, Tasaio, that ebgames and other retail outlets have put up pages for unconfirmed or totally nonexistent games before, with fake names and sometimes even fake box art. So until we hear something more, it has to be writteno ff.

No. They are not irrelevant as if they don't sell it; I don't buy it. R00fles!

 

 

"So until we hear something more, it has to be writteno ff."

 

Nah. Everyone knbows a NWN2 expansion is coming. It's only a matter of time. This isn't like some random game generator.

Thanks for the clarification. I've never heard of EB doing this. If this turns out to be a hoax, then please accept my apologies.

 

 

...

 

Are you serious, about them putting up fake box art?

Didn't they put up fake Fallout 3 and Baldur's Gate 3 box art before? I recall seeing it.

I don't think it's a hoax. Like Vol, I'm sure there will be an expansion. Like Tigranes, I'm not going to think too much of it until there is an official announcement.

Yes they did. Oftentimes they do it in 'anticipation', and even have buttons for preorder, though I don't know what happens if youa ctually preorder and the game never is produced or announced.

 

Anyway as Volo says a NWN2 expansion is extremely likely sooner or later, and it might well bear the name Legacy of the Gith- but it may not. Once again, we wait. Don't worry Tasaio, at least now we can have a nice speculation about Gith in an xpack.

Getting back money after you've preordered is a pain in the ass. Even if the game never ships.

Well a couple weeks ago MCA said to look for news in a couple weeks. Its possible that EB knows something we don't.

They probably do, Oerwinde. I'm not putting down eb games. I'm just saying that they had the exact same information up for BG3 and that didn't turn out. It's not that I don't want to see the game. I do. I just want to see an official announcement.

Rob McGinnis posted this over at the NWN2 forums:

That posting by EBGames is a mistake. There have been no announcements of an expansion.

 

Plus, Legacy of Gith was a working title for NWN2, I believe.

I agree that given what's been said, an official announcement on an expansion pack is likely to come soon, but this isn't it. Legacy of the Gith would be an interesting title, though - even if it was formerly used for NWN2 itself. I guess it refers to the silver sword, and the end of NWN2 did try to focus our attention on the fate of the sword.

They did talk a lot about the fate of Gith near the end too, so if the expansion has planeswalking and such, likely Gith would be a part of it and the title would still fit.

If they do an expansion pack based on the multiverse, I'm going to feel bad for those poor bastards at Rogue Dao.

Why? Planescape is based on the baseline Dungeons and Dragons cosmology, which the Forgotten Realms do not use. The Forgotten Realms uses its own unique cosmology which have some similarities but also some stark differences as well.

Those similarities likely being custom content RD has been working on. You can get to Sigil from the Forgotten Realms.

EB Games does it again.

 

I wonder what the developers have in store for an expansion.
