I have just remembered that I have had a dream about vising a finished: http://www.siegeofdragonspear.com/ and it was like tan and brown with white and had grey or stone or maybe navy blue and some type of dark area somewhere also it had big text boxes and concept art / 'scene art' with some type of grand sales pitch type thing to the left, or right? I cannot remember it was like 20 or 17 dollars. Possibly Red or off-Red buttons too?. There was some-type of narrated Video too, I cannot fully remember; anyway I wish to say this for sometimes the 'unthinkable' happens and I dream up stuff that is about to happen (but it rarely happens). Anyway it was a pretty cool website non the less, dream or not.
Hey what is the predicted price that they want for Adventure Y @elminster ?
Under the Dragonspear Castle extensive tunnels were dug, connecting with an underground river, the already-abandoned city of Kanaglym, and hence the larger Underdark. Rumors abound that Dragonspear holds a portal to the sinister planes.
So maybe while the combined forces of Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate defeated the devils from the Dragonspear Castle in 1356, the fact BG1-BG2 happens in 1368-1369 doesn't mean the story cannot be repeated again.
For example, in 1363 the devils emerged from portals in the Dragonspear Castle again and gathered an army of ogres, kobolds, orcs, all kinds of goblinoids, and a black dragon. That time, the Hordes were defeated - again - in the Battle of Daggerford by a hastily made alliance of dwarves, elves from the Misty Forest, paladins of Illmater, mercenaries, local militia, and a troop of the City Guard of Waterdeep.
Maybe the story of the Adventure Y shows the repeat of those events.
It's true! I first noticed today the Baldur's Gate icon on my tabs has been replaced by a weird B thing and now I see a BEAMDOG logo thing at the top of my screen! IT'S HAPPENING!
*It is Early spring boys and gals, I bet that the folks over at Beam Doge are sweating bolts right now trying to keep a secret about the details within their immanent mid/late-spring revealing Adventure Y announcements..*
will there be open explorable and continuous areas like in bg1 or will they be more of an *impenetrable forest - follow the road - oh there's a small clearing/campfire/hut/cave entrance/wizard tower* type as seen to some extent in some new EE areas?
That's a perfectly valid question. I would think we'll have a lot of dungeons (i.e. underdark (EDIT: read underground caverns of development) and dragonspear).

I know it's Quality Assurance you're all talking about, but we'd like to see "Questions and Answers" as well:)
And we still don't have to answer them.
And we *definitely* don't have to tell the truth if we do answer them.
Of course the answer is Halflings!
WHY!?
