Showing my love

Scarlett

Dear Beamdog,

I hope you are well and enjoying your work on Neverwinter Nights, and anything else you have in the oven. I hope also it was fulfilling to complete your enhanced edition of the treasured RPG classic Baldurs Gate. Your additions were phenomenal and though it fit seemlessly into the original series, even your entire expansion as a prequel to BG2, you at times outshined the original content. Your expansion Dragonspear was such an incredibly good time, that I felt someone was speaking uniquely to me, sharing with me a love of RPG's. The art, music, branching quests and overall sense of adventure was a pure pleasure, and I have fallen in love with a few of your characters along the way. Especially Neera, Baeloth and Dorn, along with Hexxat and the Goblin Shaman were all lovingly crafted characters that I missed when they werent there. Neera and Dorn in my fancies developed close relationships with my 2 main characters, that have now soon completed the series. The writing, voice acting and design of these characters along with Dragonspears excellent adventure and just epic score that put me on the edge of my seat as I assaulted the castle at the end, cemented Baldurs Gate EE as one of my best gaming experiences I have had. I hope to convey my deepest appreciation for your work, and hope to see many things from your team in the future.

With love,
- S

Thank you so much, @Scarlett ! I've shared your letter with the Team.

I also believe Beamdog did a good job. Siege of Dragonspear is a worthy expansion IMO, larger than both Tales of the Sword Coast and Throne of Bhaal. It brought some surprises from Icewind Dale and tie well the Infinity Engine Forgotten Realms franchise.

The NPC DLCs are better for BGII than I IMO. I have a little regret though it's I always felt something was missing between SoA and ToB but I guess it's over now.

Now that I can play Siege of Dragonspear on my iPad, I agree with the foregoing. I think it's a good game, worth my time and money. I don't understand what all the uproar was when the game was released. Looking forward to the general release of Neverwinter Nights, and holding out hope for an iOS version of that too. Thanks for all you do.

Neither do I? It was ridiculous. I am currently in Chapter 2 of BG2EE, in the middle of a run, from BGEE->SOD->BG2EE. I have been loving it. I thought SOD was done very well. Hearing Misc do new lines and a certain surprise character speak new lines, were awesome. I really enjoyed getting all the new information that pertained to the whole Bhallspawn arc. Plus it was much bigger than I could have imagined. It took me months to get through it. Great job. I wouldn't do a run from start to finish without SOD anymore, there's too much good stuff in SOD.

And, now that I have continued into BG2EE, I think the quests involving Neera and Rasaad have been great. Neera is my love interest. I enjoy her character a lot. She is very developed. So, a great job on the new content in BG2EE, as well as the extra content BGEE, too!
