Neverwinter Nights: The Blades of Netheril

[Ratibor]

Many players all over the world have a true passion for NWN and consider it to be one of the best RPGs ever.

Almost twenty years have passed since its release date, and right now we are getting a chance for another remarkable adventure! Luke Scull (also known as Alazander), famous writer and content-maker for the Neverwinter Nights game, creator of Siege of Shadowdale (https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/module/al1-siege-shadowdale-canceled-premium-module), Crimson Tides of Tethyr (https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/module/al2-crimson-tides-tethyr-canceled-premium-module), Tyrants of the Moonsea (https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/module/al3-tyrants-moonsea-canceled-premium-module, or buy a premium module: steam- https://store.steampowered.com/app/...ghts_Enhanced_Edition_Tyrants_of_the_Moonsea/ , gog- https://www.gog.com/game/neverwinter_nights_tyrants_of_the_moonsea ) NWN modules, announced a new series, ''The Blades of Netheril''.

This adventure is going to be the author's biggest. What is more - ''The Blades of Netheril'' is treated as a sequel to the OC ''Wailing Death''. Right now, we're having a true chance to continue the story of the Hero of Neverwinter! We can meet a lot of old friends and finish the storyline in a proper way.

Alas, Wizards of the Coast stopped supportting Premium Modules (again). So Luke is relying on us right now!

Hi folks! After much recommendation, I've finally joined this cosy little forum and would like to extend my greetings to everyone! I'm the developer behind the Blades of Netheril project. I'd love to invite fans to check out the development of the campaign at https://www.patreon.com/lukescull or https://boosty.to/lukescull (for Russian fans). This is the beginning of a 4-5 year journey that will hopefully culminate in a full-length, commercial-quality NWN campaign that provides the definitive 3rd-edition Forgotten Realms experience.

A warm welcome to you! It's very nice to see you join us personally after hearing/reading so much about your great work!

Do you plan to release the campaign chapter by chapter, since it says summer 2022 in the Doom of Icewind Dale trailer? Does that mean it will be playable bit by bit, or will you only give it to subscribers for testing until the whole project is finished?
I also realize I should probably check out your patreon page and subscribe to get that information, but I hope you still don't mind the question.

Anyway, thanks for the huge effort and dedication to continue your campaign even when support of Premium Modules was stopped, I hope we can gather some support for your project here!

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I will be releasing the campaign chapter by chapter, with the first coming this summer. Subscribers at certain tiers will get the a beta of each chapter 4-6 weeks before the public release. Each chapter will add new content and provide an adventure on a par with a substantial premium module, and my hope is that the entire campaign will make for one of the most epic and memorable 3rd edition FR adventures.

Doom of Icewind Dale will actually be bigger than I first imagined, around 12 hours in length.

I would like to congratulate all of you on the 20th anniversary of the wonderful Neverwinter Nights game. For over 20 years now, for many of us, this has been more than just a game. In honor of this event, I would like to present you a work that we specially commissioned for the 20th anniversary of the game. This is a kind of renaissance and revival of the old cover. Now with improvements from Beamdog and the upcoming release of a series of modules by Luke Sсull, which will continue the story of the Hero of Neverwinter and Aribeth so dearly loved by us, right now we can say that the game is experiencing its renaissance and revival.
Separately, I would like to express my gratitude to this forum and its members. You are a very warm and welcoming community.
