    The legendary role-playing game comes back to life with very few improvements but with the hope that the updates will do even better. We expected more from Beamdog.

    Neverwinter is still a solid game (especially the Hordes of the Underdark expansion is worth the time) but it was remastered so slightly that the originally hideous game became merely ugly. [06/2018, p.50]

Currently I am playing Tyrants of the Moonsea by Ossian Studios and it is a MAGNIFICIENT Story completely inline with all of the other great Forgotten Realms Tales. 10 out of 10

    Highly recommend getting this along with Darkness over Daggerford and Tyrants of the Moonsea DLC's by Ossian Studios

    A much needed update for a beloved classic. Some things are still being improved, and new modules are being actively developed. Amazing stuff.

    Why don't people do research before they buy? Not once did Beamdog say the HD graphics will be included at launch it will come later.

    Anyway, I knew what I was buying when I bought it and it is great fun.

    Not a bad game at all, but definetely not for everyone.
    Neverwinter Nights is famous and widely regarded an almost classic. The gameplay, story, dice rolls, stats, classes, etc. are direct game interpretations of the D&D board games, problem is they left you to be the Dungeon Master, almost that is. What I mean is the story is predetermined and has a path that cannot be changed, but a lot of your experience inside the quests will need your imagination to truly be appreciated. It is a simple main story, I remember the beginning much more than the ending, which normally it's not a good sign, I got invested in the beginning, the game pulled me in, but the more answers I got the less interested I was, it wasn't a bad experience, but can't say I was overjoyed at the end.
    Most quest are simple quests, inside a non linear wide location with linear maps.
    The biggest problem is the amount of traps and locked chests and doors, if you don't like a rogue class you will need the only rogue companion in the game and you can only choose one, this makes the others non viable which in turn makes the replayability almost non existent, with the exception of going through everything again but with a different class.
    The DLCs expand a lot in enjoyment and story wise, and adds new classes, the graphics are better, the ingame cutscenes too, it's like the devs had finally figured out the engine and could flex a little bit.
    If you are a fan of RPG, you'll like this.

    The biggest selling point, the HD graphics, ISN'T EVEN INCLUDED.

    So it has almost no new features, and it looks terrible. You're basically
    The biggest selling point, the HD graphics, ISN'T EVEN INCLUDED.

    So it has almost no new features, and it looks terrible. You're basically paying for an Early Access game here, and it's shameful. Shame on you, Beamdog, shame.

    Zero points here. The original is a great game, but you are 100% better off getting the old Diamond edition because all mods work with it andZero points here. The original is a great game, but you are 100% better off getting the old Diamond edition because all mods work with it and those mods are literally 100% better than any content Beamdog added to the game in the enhanced edition. Seriously, you are basically shooting yourself in the foot by getting the enhanced edition, so dont do it. You can get the diamond edition easily on ebay for pennies and I think they still have it on GoG too.

    The problem here is that Beamdogs added absolutely nothing worth buying. Literally nothing. The old game ran in 1080p just fine and I was even able to use it in windowed mode by just adding -w to my shortcut. They did not even add windowed mode to the game. As for gameplay, no changes whatsoever. Still no natural spell, still no fixes for many spells both arcane and divine, still no fixes for quests like how the snake lady keeps talking to you through undead even after you killed her. Not even a new game mode nor any easy way to make a custom NPC in game... and oh yea, according to the forums, they introduced new bugs. Pathetic.

    DO NOT BUY THIS. Get the original instead.
