Can you play on PC with a controller or is it just Xbox, ps5, and switch? Plus why no ps4 release. If I can run on switch (probably like shit) then it definatly can on ps4.

Plus why no ps4 release.

The PS5 has been out for almost five years now. At some point it's time to accept that not every old platform needs to be supported anymore.

Ok but, what are the "enhancements", excluding Steam Workshop Integration which is actually great.

Yeah but this being an older game you think they would want to support as much as possible no big deal as I have both ps4 and a ps5, not to mention a computer. (Prefer computer anyway). Was just wondering as from its looks ps4 would run it easily.

The game is nearly 20 years old, with these graphics it could probably have been ported to dreamcast tbh

I got framed by the game's name... Neverwinter Nights, was an RPG PC game isn't it?

Yep. And a good one too. Still have the install discs somewhere (i think it was a 2CD-Rom game. Pretty big back then).

This is a re release of the old PC game

The original was only on mac/pc

It was damn-near first 3D RPG that shipped with the full toolset and allowed people not only to make their own modules at will, but host them online as well, and people went BONKERS with it. Lots of PvM modules were up, lots of gag ones, lots of pvp ones all with custom rulesets and whatever their makers wanted. It was ground-breaking to say the least.

Still have NWN Diamond and Gold editions with boxes. And the collector box for NWN2.

You a legit fan then .

You a legit fan then .

It was one of THE best overall rpg experiences of its time, especially if you also liked playing online, for free, or if you loved tinkering and making your own campaigns.

Can't really think of any other similar game that offering this level of experience and freedom back then.

Your point is what exactly? PS3 stopped being supported years ago, still has millions of active users. PS4 still has millions of active users that will not upgrade to a PS5. Games sell more copies when released on all available platforms. Ignoring millions of gamers is a terrible idea that results in less copies sold. That's like PC games requiring the most recent hardware, which results in poor sales.

i hope finally its now supported... i havent tested but i already downloaded it...

Edit: Now its working you can control your character... AND....

ok so, I got it and don't regret it - if only because it's nice to see it run smoothly without crashing ala Skyrim. But I think that calling it "Enhanced" is a bit of a stretch. "Fixed" would be more appropriate.
