I second this, or third it, or maybe you just did Mr. Zork, regardless it should get done. I just hope Bioware isn't stuburnly not doing this just because I was involved in advocating for it.
It's the least Bioware can do, it's the right thing to do, and hopefully they will do it.
Or maybe they are just trying to prove me right when I asked if there was a delibrate attempt to kill NWN 1 off. Come on BIoware, prove me wrong... Step up to the plate, and give one of the coolest games you have ever made some love. A game which over 10 years later is still unprecidented. Be proud of it, and foster it's continued existence. Keeping new and old players alike informed is not only good customer service, but also protects the continuing legacy of this game which YOU made, and which allows so many of us to be able to express and share our creative energies.
Once again, since you keep missing reality, Bioware does not have to do anything, Nor are they stubbornly griefing you. They have already given everything your going to get from them, hence the final patch. Final..it means there won't be another, that they are done, Finished, stopped working on it, for it, or fixing it.. Bio has moved on, Been bought out, all the great tallented folks, who made NWN work on other projects, or, have left for other companies. Your continued insistance that BIO do something, to support a decade old game, is akin to walking around with a sandwich board sign on a corner, it looks stupid, It does nothing for you, us, or them.
Why Bio isn't going to do anything, is simple, the licence is in the hands of people who don't want 3rd ed. NWN to continue. They want to sell the licence to game makers who will make new 4th edition games. Wizards of the Coast, the folks who own D&D do not want a 3rd ed game taking players from their new rule system. They never intended for NWN to be as multi-player friendly as it was, as customizable as it turned out to be. We got extremely lucky, and there will probably never be another title as good, nor as easy to create with again. That does not translate to the sky is falling, or the end is near. It translates to the same thing that has always come to, the community will keep this title going.
Bioware makes great games. They support them longer than most other companies do. Laz, seriously give it a rest. Stop bleating about how Bio should do things, or what Bio should do to please you. It won't happen, no mater how many times you post it, how many doom topics you start, or how many ways you demand it, nor how many times you change the titles of your posts. The reality is, Bio has moved on. Its on the community to do everything.
The current issue will get fixed. New buyers and old will get the message of how to fix it. Everything will be fine, players will still play, builders will still build. the sky will stay up where it should be, and in the meanwhile, all PWs are still up and running, can be connected too, and now, will probably be even more vocal here. Thats a good thing.
