In 15 hours (November, 19, at 2 p.m. Eastern time, 7 p.m. London, 2 p.m. New York) Beamdog will start an AMA on Reddit. http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/comment/578144/#Comment_578144
Trent Oster will be there.
The last Beamdog AMA had been 2 years ago, before even BGEE was shipped http://www.reddit.com/comments/z1af7/we_are_overhaul_games_the_team_behind_baldurs/
It was very insightful and full of information about Beamdog's further plans.
Now, when IWDEE is out, I guess this new AMA could let us understand the future: IWD2EE? IWD3? PSTEE? Adventure Y? Something totally new?
Like my Priest of Tempus would say, I'm so excited and i just can't hide it.

And they should tell me because I have very poor memory!
It will be 10 pm in Moscow so unfortunately I won't be able to ask questions. Maybe somebody will do it instead of me?
This is my list of questions to Beamdog:
1. You said the BG2EE patch would go to beta. Now with all this time passing, haven't you changed your mind? Maybe it's better to release the patch as soon as your inner testing is over?
2. Will that patch (or at least a beta-version if you still consider it's the only way to go) be released before Christmas, 2014?
3. Will the Adventure Y be released as a standalone game?
4. Who will be the main character of this Adventure? Is it CHARNAME from the BG line?
5. Will there be new NPCs in this Adventure? The ones we can take into a party I mean.
6. Will there be any quick patch for IWDEE before Christmas, 2014?
7. What changes from IWDEE will be ported back to BGEE? Max HP option, additional druid spells, bard songs? Anything more?
8. What is your current view on making IWD2EE? PSTEE?
9. If you're thinking about the new game instead of IWD2EE and PSTEE, what will it be like? Can we say it will be like what we can imagine by IWD3 title?
10. Will there be NPCs and party interactions in your new game?
11. How do you evaluate your work on BGEE - IWDEE now? Was it a success? Has it brought what you had expected? Has it generated the money to start thinking about BG V?
12. What were the most pleasant and the worst moments in these 2 years?
13. If you make a new game, how long should we wait till it's released: a year from now, 2, 3, or more?
14. Will there be any additional content for BG2EE and IWDEE in terms of quests and areas in the future?
15. What do you want to say to the community in general: will you work on IE-related games in the next 5 years or will you do something completely different?
And these are additional questions from other forum members:
16. (from Aedan) When will more colors be addeded to BG1&2EE, IWDEE to customize skin, hair and dress?
17. (from Aedan) Is that true we will see Weenog in Adventure Y?
18. (from Aedan) Will Adventure Y be dubbed?
19. (from O_Bruce) When can we expect the original content non-enlgish voiceovers for BGEE and why never?
20. (from wubble) Are Beamdog's plans for future games(after adventure y and not EEs) using D&D ? If so are they set in the forgotten realms or another setting?
Cheers!
Time ago, I asked Dee if they plan to add more colors to customize skin, hair and dress, but I did not get an answer. Can you please add this question to your list?
EDIT: Also, is it true that we will see Weenog in Adventure Y?
EDIT 2: Will Adventure Y be dubbed? Enough with silent dialogues!
I WANT TO PLAY P:T EE ON MY IPAD!!!!!
Well, it's not even a question, so there are no questionS at all!!
could somebody ask a couple of questions for me?
1. Are Beamdog's plans for future games(after adventure y and not EEs) using D&D ?
2, if so are they set in the forgotten realms or another setting?
1. When can we expect the original content non-enlgish voiceovers for BGEE and why never?
I meant "dubbed", not "doubled". Sorry
Can you please edit?
@Aedan Done:)
@wubble questions added
@swit We are awaiting for this information
I'm going to the court now, so won't be here till tomorrow. Everyone, enjoy the AMA!
No. Every evasive answer hurts their credibility.
What hurts thier credibility is if they give a concrete answer then do the opposite of what they said due to unforseen circumstances.
See ME3 ending.
