..3 parrots?

Parrot harvesting sure isnt what it used to be. Back when I was a kid we used to have manners and share our parrots with the less fortunate. People these days are only concerned about hoarding parrots and that is why the world is becoming a sick, sick place.

I'm sure we can expect the usual Beamdog quality from this "enhancement."

-Doesn't fix bugs that existed in the original game
-Introduces more bugs that take months or years to patch, if ever
-Broken multiplayer
-Breaks mods, including mods that fixed bugs in the original version that the EE doesn't and never will
-Redesigned interface features that are inferior to and clash with the original UI
-Nickel and dime DLC for characters, portraits, areas etc. of a significantly lower quality than anything in the main game and remind you that you paid 20$ for an inferior version of a game you already own

Beamdog are parasites and everything they touch turns to shit.

They have so little to say on the progress front, that in their patch notes they talk about temporarily introduced bugs:

Two multiplayer bugs have been introduced and will only affect players for a short time

Still not the authoritative version. Also, color scheme of UI is inferior. All Beamdog EEs are aesthetically inferior to the originals, shown here.

Their NWN:EE filters look worse than the original unfiltered, too. My blog screenshots of the Aielund Saga look better than the EE shots.

Original:

I used decent as improvement from their other EE games not from the original. Still it have a few improvements for people that don't care/want/know about mods.
And yeah they do look worst then the originals.

The cherry on this shitcake is selling BG1/2 soundtracks for 10 euros.

OMG saying something looks like shit, which NWN does and always did (and without shadows it's eye-gouging), makes you a graphic whore! Not a monocooled individual for sure!!

I'm just saying: the EE filters look worse than the original. Just like the Infinity EEs look worse than the originals. Beamdog is consistent in their lack of aesthetic taste.
