Lost CD Key, Can't Seem to Access them Online
« on: July 27, 2011, 05:53:36 am »


                Hi, 

I apologize in advance if this is a bit doh, but in the process of reinstalling NWN1, I logged into my bioware account to retrieve my CD keys - except I can't find them anywhere. My assumption is that this changed with the whole EA thing (apparently NWN is now a "legacy game" - yeah, I've been out of the loop for awhile, something to do with having to graduate, lol). I was peripherally aware of this (since I do/did play DA: Origins and all) but never actually realized that the CD keys for my older games have gone kaput (seemingly). Now my question here is: is there any way I can retrieve my CD keys for NWN diamond (re: did I just fail to successfully navigate this "Bioware SocialNetwork" site) or are they gone for good? 

If the latter, I'm probably up the creek with no paddle, since I totally do not remember where the heck I stuck my manual all those years ago (which is bad, because I moved around a lot during my student years. Gulp). 

Thanks in advance.

               ...Or does this have something to do with the servers being down? Man, I am totally out of the loop.

               The bad news is: if you were depending on what was once Bioware's own site to protect your CD keys for eternity, you made a poor decision.  EA never really wanted to support NWN so it is now a fond memory though you can hold your breath hoping for a resolution in the future some time.  There have been no communication between the administrators and the community for some time and no ETA on the restoration of services.  So you be the judge.

The good news is:  If you still love the game and all the on-line bonding and fun you can still enjoy the experience but it will cost you, 10 USD to be exact, from Good Old Games who will furnish you with a set of new keys.

Unfortunately, in life we must pay for our mistakes but we can still learn from our mistakes.

Sorry for the bad tidings, my friend '<img'>

               Ahhhh. I guess I'm **** out of luck, then, lol. Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. =) If I get desperate enough I suppose I can trouble myself to part with $10 bucks...XD
