    They’re converting a game from 32-bit to 64. That can’t be easy.

    Agreed, not easy, but what did it really accomplish by moving to 64 bit? Honest question since I'm guessing this eliminated some of their playerbase who are still running 32 bit systems.

    Thank Google.
    "Starting from August 2021, Google Play will not allow applications without the 64-bit versions to serve on 64-bit capable devices. This simply means they will not be available for the 64-bit capable devices on the Play Store. This will also include all the games that are built with the help of Unity 5.6.x or older versions."

    So, to that effect it should have only been the Android version of the game that required upgrading to 64 bit, not everything.

    All apple apps are 64-bit.

    It gives some info on bioware history and the development of the current beamdog portfolio, and it is great to hear they plan to support it for years to come.
    However, it does leave us quite in the dark for the new franchise outside that the full team is 80ish people strong now.

    Tax Collection Simulator 2021. Calling it now.

    EDIT: Might call it 2022 at this point.

    I'd love if they just used the neverwinter nights engine to keep producing quality adventures to fund improving the engine. They could make a spiritual successor to icewind dale and I enjoyed what they've produced so far. Although they need to make sure the tone remains medieval/fantasy and any semblance to modernity is well veiled.

    Instead of spending time on remake pitches, @TrentOster needs to focus on getting that first original new Beamdog RPG out. :smile:

    Damn that would have been a good get.

    Wow! That so many of you would rather have Beamdog work on a remake than an original game ('cause they cannot successfully do both) is shocking to me.
