    Any thoughts on whether or not this will impact certain feats or races? I don't know how many things are affected by that, aside from underdark races. I mean is there anything like that in 5e?

    Any race with light sensitivity would find trackable day and night circles to be interesting. Like orcs and kobolds for instance. Same of course goes for characters infected with lycanthropy. It's about time we'd see playable werecows in a game! ;)



    That is to say, it could very well be just a measurement of time without any ties to specific gameplay components.

    Not really, but all IE games had some sort of clock in the bottom right (or left) corner and night and day played important roles in when some quests activated.

    They'd probably keep this type of pattern in the new game.

    The more interesting part is the illustration at the bottom right of the clock. It shows where the portraits are going to be located and the general look of the hub with the 8 button layout, similar to IWD2 layout. The icy look of both the strings and the sun/moon orb give a frosty look. So perhaps what we are looking at is early art for IWD2:EE which was scrapped because of the source code unavailability.

    There's a small blue line that goes vertically through my monitor (likely the result of my constant moving it around my home office), and it just so happened to be exactly where the L in the word 'clock' is in the top left of that image. The blue line blended pretty well with the blue background, making it look like a completely different word. I was pretty confused, to say the least.

    I mean, what would Beamdog be making rooster decoration variations for?

    Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg: Enhanced Edition confirmed!

    Yes, in a way, day and night matters in PnP. Plus, every RPG I've seen, from the old IE games to Neverwinter Nights 1 & 2 to Tyranny, they all had some mechanic that showed daylight/night or represented a clock. Good RPGs care about days and timing and such.

    The biggest question, at least for me, is whether there will be ferrets gazebos in the new game or not.

    Fixed. :p

    Only the nose knows.

    This thread would be flooded with new comments if any actual new information was out. Certainly more than 12.

    Any chance we can get the Lumineers to do the soundtrack.

    For the record, my name is Richard Burton, so if we can find someone named Elizabeth Taylor, we're in.

    All right why hasn't @tbone1 received the blue background yet? He obviously knows everything about the next release :)
