Do not remove the original Neverwinter from the store completed
Added by
Kaenthur If the Beamdog version is going to be good or not, we still need the option to purchase the classic without buying the EE. This is the basic of the market: options! By removing our option of purchase, the only message that I understand is that the EE is not good enough to stand against the "old one", so it needs to become the "only option".
tfishell BG:EE DOES include the original - "Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition includes the classic Baldur's Gate: The Original Saga." And Neverwinter Nights Diamond is included with the EE. I understand this wish to be for retaining the ability to purchase separately though.
Please_GOG was at 1337 votes, but I love this game, sorry ;)
MazDen also removed
tfishell It's going to be bundled with the EE this Thursday, like the other Beamdog EE's.
Shalaa_87 "Buying EE should include the original in the bonus downloads."
What do you know. BG:EE (I have more EE's) don't include original. That's really disappointing! I have the originals in my Library but you'd just have to hunt for physical copies to play the originals. We are not sheeps! Let us choose, not the other way around!
MazDen silently admit and accept every shady tactics that a some company can pull out. because you just consumer that didnt have any rights or instruments like community wishlist or something in order at least to show your attitude...
Thammuz90 While beamdog has been doing a notoriously shitty job of the enhanced editions (including but not limited to hiring hack writers to write terribly received and unnecessary expansions) that doesn't give GOG the power to ignore legally binding contracts.
If beamdog owns the publishing rights then they don't get a say in keeping or removing the games from the stores. All you can do is stock up now and keep installers.
retsushi Buy the old game now and be done with it! You all know the old game will be pulled from the store, and GOG has nothing to say on this
Vivienne_99 The original Neverwinter Nights is a true classic and I also agree that it should remain available even if the Enhanced Edition is eventually available on GOG.
drakkar123 It's likely that Beamdog has bought all publishing rights with all of the games they release as enhanced editions, and obviously they want to recoop on their investment. It's not being greedy at all, we're talking about very old games, and even with the enhanced editions, they aren't going to break any sales records. There's an easy way around it if you want the original though, just buy it now, and it will forever be in your library. Or if you wait, you'll most likely have to buy it bundled with the enhanced edition. It's a small price to pay for getting updates to these older games though, and we should be thankful they still make the originals available at all.
KrischanOlsson I litterly got my GoG account just to buy Neverwinter nights 1 and 2 (with the addons...) and yes I do mean Litterly, as in what I have writen in plain text...
Pyromancer It's not up to GOG.com.
And also, I would not whine about this one - especially this can be the first Enhanced Edition of a game, that really needs it :P
The_Ghost I was lucky enough to purchase a pack with all the old content before it was pulled: don't understand why they're pulling it for purchase though...
>noderunner_ Buying EE should include the original in the bonus downloads.
Tikkia Sounds like a nice wish. It is not gog's call, unfortunatlly.
tfishell I hope it stays, but it may not be up to GOG. If Hasbro tells GOG they have to bundle it or otherwise remove it, they may have no choice.
drk84x (talking about the original Baldur's Gate games)
drk84x It's a shame that they removed the original version.
CyberneticFist They did the same with BG, Planescape, and Icewind Dale. They're just greedy bastards.
sbloom85 Agreed, and there should also be a small discount on the enhanced edition if you own the original.
