    I mean they released them on phones? All you really need is a mouse cursor on the analogue stick and a few shortcuts. I used to play Baldur’s Gate with just a mouse all the controls are in the UI.

    In fact if I’m feeling lazy I do use the Steam Controller for Baldur’s Gate and Pillars of Eternity from time to time.

    my major concerns is modding. neverwinter nights main selling point is it's custom content. they got it to work on android but it will not be that easy on consoles.

    Yea not sure about the modding that will be a real kicker. Since I posted this Julius made an official post. Might be one for the Ask Beamdog questions.

    For myself NWN I’ve never really been that interested in Neverwinter Nights so I’m a bit out of touch with that aspect.

    Closing as a dupe to the thread from the News section.
