Beamdog: We would like to apologize for recent miscommunications regarding the removal of the predecessor products to our Enhanced Edition titles from sale on GOG...
The saga continues....but the song remains the same -- a phatt load of bullshizzle, slightly rearranged to appear new and improved.

And here I used to defend this by the Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast angle. I had sympathy because I had once thought this was beyond anyone's control.

I don't really know who's idea it was to put this here, but it's put a very bad taste in my mouth. At least it's nice to know the truth. Or is it the truth? I mean, observe that there was no intention of this being widespread. Beamdog posted it here to not draw too much aggro.

Unbundle these products and I'll buy PSTEE. You don't, I don't. Simple as that. I will not buy any more of Beamdog's products on any platform until the buck stops and things are made right. And I encourage anyone else to do the same.

Don't care much for Beamdog shitheads and their petty parody on BG, but GoG really disappointed me on that case. Really, GoG, I wanted to bring you my money for that warm and fuzzy feeling of seeing BG titles on my virtual shelf (I'm happily using pirated versions since 2000 so basically it's nothing but a homage from me), I still want, just give me the way to do it without giving a single cent to that disgusting SJW-loving Beamfreaks!

This thread should be stuffed into every review of Beamdog products, for here on out.


I wonder where all the Beamdog defenders went. Been rather quiet after this statement popped up.

Maybe you could send some money directly to GOG and perhaps Hasbro (the original publisher) - 70% to Hasbro, 30% to GOG. At least as a good will gesture.

Great idea.

Another classic is being destroyed right now. I wonder who they will blame this time? Gary Gygax, maybe? EA? Bioware? Donald Trump?

It will be interesting to see. But the classic version will be removed from the stores as soon as this one is released.

"while the name might suggest a HD remake, the “enhancements” aren’t anywhere near that extensive...:

Basically, the enhancements are limited to a few pieces of UI and the menu scaling properly up to 4K, and the addition of effects like depth-of-field, pixel shaders and post-processing."

So basically the same game with shitty graphics a la BG patch 2.x. Just another shitty cash grab.

Yes. Exactly what it is.

SJWs. Or those who hire and endorse them. Give them ground to play ball at your own risk. Fail to say "NO" to their various/numerous actions of abundant psychiatric interest i might add, at your own expense and be fully prepared to eat all of the consequences in your face!

SJWs just ruing the causes they fight for. Which is a shame. I tend to agree with a lot of it, but the insane methods they use to promote them just makes the whole cause look moronic.

Unlike your good intentions, kind sir, though, they want and actually manage, to rob us out of *options*, plus trying to impose theirs as the one and only... With persecution of other opinion(s) asking for other options, on top, either by blatant lies, bitter jokes, or whatever shady method at hand! Be it videogames, arts, or real life, their invasive, pervasive, intrusive modus operandi, is the very same "fascism" (oppressing methods) that they supposedly fight against; only they masquerade it as "freedom", "rights", "equality"! "Propaganda, oppression, elimination (of different groups)" being actually and clearly, some are always more equal than others, in their books!

So, any (official) word on whether or not the original NWN will be bundled with the EE eventually?

With Beamdogs history in mind, I would bet my money on that the original NWN gets removed from GOG and bundled with NWN:EE.

LOL

I called someone out for bashing the GoG version on the steam forums for NWN EE...
