My heartfelt reaction is 'oh, thank fuck.' (I do not want the game to be buggy, and I still haven't finished my perfect run. A welcome reprieve!)

And here I was relieved because Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition is coming in a couple of weeks, and Battletech sometime in April. Now I might have time to play them a bit.

Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition So, is this the kind of "remaster" where graphics are marginally improved and the game is tweaked to run better on modern systems, or a proper overhaul of the games which includes improved mechanics, UI, etc.? Because while I couldn't care less about the first possibility, the second I would find very interesting. Looks like the former: www.beamdog.com/products/neverwinter-nights-enhanced-editionWHAT'S NEW IN THIS VERSION
Enhanced Features
Improved Display: Your portrait, combat bar, inventory, and other UI elements adjust in size based on your chosen resolution including 1080p and 4k.
Advanced Graphics Options: Pixel shaders and post-processing effects make for crisper, cleaner visuals. Enable contrast, vibrance, and depth of field options as preferred.
Community Endorsed: Original developers have teamed with key members of the Neverwinter Nights community to curate important fan-requested improvements to support players, storytellers, and modders.
Backwards Compatibility: Works with save games, modules, and mods from the original Neverwinter Nights. A galaxy of community created content awaits.

One of these days I must actually try and finish a Pillars play through though I always seem to lose interest after a while, not sure why.

Despite what some people are saying everywhere full VO is not what they have announced. They announced they didn't just double PO1 VO budget but voiced all the dialogues (which is different from voicing everything). They didn't add voice over for the player character's response. They didn't add voice over for all the prose and text adventure (important story moment has a narrator, like the chapter start wall-o-text).

Having NPC dialogue fully voiced is as good as literally everything being voiced in my book. It's the one thing I feel genuinely adds to the game and makes the characters more memorable, assuming the voice actors are good but with a dev like Obsidian there's really little to no risk of outright bad voice acting. I don't feel that strongly one way or another about a voiced protagonist vs a mute one with just text, and having descriptive text narrated constantly seems a bit pointless honestly, anyway.

They didn't add voice over for all the prose and text adventure (important story moment has a narrator, like the chapter start wall-o-text). Tbh, I don't think narration fits particularly well with this style, IMO at least, sometimes narration of this type comes across as awkward and stilted. The text adventure fit well with a narrator I think and some of them have dialogues* in Deadfire and it seems that unless they are part of the main story, they won't be voiced. *Beta examples: there is a text adventure that can turn into a conversation with a delemgan and another one has the ship crew giving their opinions on what to do with a ghost ship.
