I'm quite sure that there were at least 3 different loading screen tips about different lands in SoZ.

And Samarach is a region on the Chultan Peninsula.

I think Bioware's done milking the D&D licence. They have Dragon Age's boring take of D&D to focus on now, and they don't have to play by the rules of Hasbro and Wizard of the Coast with that licence.

Bioware didn't make NWN2.

Chult or something like that. The place with the dinosaurs, I think.

Nah, that load screen tip was in MotB, and is the basis for this theory about the third expansion. I think the SoZ one talked about political unrest in Moonshaes or something like that. Not sure at all, but looking at the map of the Realms in Wiki that name sounds familiar.

Yeah I remember some tip about some Princess or Queen of the Moonshae Isles during SoZ loading screens.

A few obsidian people have said on forums "it would be kind of neat to do an NX3" but no one's ever said that it'll be made.

I was not refering to that game, but i've been enlightened none the less.

Much obliged.

To be entirely honest, the loading screens for NX2 are about 25% help text, 25% situational (as much as can be), 25% flavor text (hence the shit about Leira - seriously, she's dead in FR lore, but I figured since she was the goddess of LIARS AND ILLUSIONS that some uncertainty about that is both reasonable and amusing), and 25% blowing smoke.

Somewhere in there may have been a grain of truth: I'm too far removed to say for certain now, nor really even recall, but for 99% of that "locational" folderol I cracked open the map of the Realms, picked a place, and went "yeaaaaaaaaaaah let's make this shit sound helluva interesting so everyone is like HOLY FUCK I SO CALLED IT THE NEXT EXPANSION IS HEEEEEEEEEEERE."

...I rather like some of the bits in there, though. But nobody gives a toss, so eh, I'll not elaborate. Just figured that the conspiracy theorists who go "they are just writing that to fuck with your heads" would like a simple "yes" to make folks smile.

But you are one of...them, aren't you. Why would you tell us that unless it is for covering something up? Obviously this means the third expansion is in production as we speak, and will be set in Moonshaes. Don't believe their lies!

Thanks for all the info, Annie. Of course, by revealing yourself to be a priestess of Leira, you've made it impossible for us to trust anything you tell us ever again. :)

What about that rumor with NWN 3 being an MMO and all?

It'll still suck anyway.

Aside from the 4th edition rules and more folks on a server at any given time how would that be any different than what we have now?
