A Neverwinter Nights 2 mod re-creating the original Baldur's Gate saga

With the return of our popular Dungeons and Dragons bundle deal many of you got their hands on a copy of Neverwinter Nights 2: Complete. This is one of the most large-scaled Forgotten Realms adventures with a lengthy main campaign and all of its expansions. It also sports a nice 3D engine that, even seven years after the game's release, makes a wonderful job of presenting the diverse and vivid fantasy realm the game lets us explore. Either you have this game in your collection, or you're thinking about grabbing it from our sale, we'd like to bring to your attention a miracle of a mod, that will make your Neverwinter Nights 2: Complete experience even more awesome!

Baldur's Gate game along with its Tales of the Sword Coast expansion. Every location, every character, every quest, and every dialog line of the beloved 1999 classic have been carefully transferred into the 2006 Neverwinter Nights 2 engine. It took Drew Rechner--the project's lead designer--and his small team of dedicated modders seven years to complete this amazing mod, and now you can enjoy it absolutely free. The creators provide installation instructions, not complicated at all. All you need to revisit the Sword Coast is a copy of Neverwinter Nights 2.

NOTE: User registration with [url=http://nexusmods.com" target="_blank]nexusmods.com[/url] is required to download the [url=http://neverwinter2.nexusmods.com/mods/794/" target="_blank]Baldur's Gate Reloaded[/url] mod (there is a free registration option if you leave all the payment plan boxes unchecked, but we encourage you to support this fine modding community).

For those of you who prefer the game in it's original 2D form we recommend our previous mod spotlight: Enhance your Baldur's Gate experience. For the next two hours you can still grab Neverwinter Nights 2: Complete, Baldur's Gate: The Original Saga, and many more D&D titles in one huge $20.10 Dungeons and Dragons bundle deal. The games are also available separately with 50% discount, and it will remain so until the end of our 2013 #NoDRM Summer sale. Have fun modding!

Mod Spotlights are always nice.
Awesome...

But, can you transfer your saved game to BG2? That would be amazing.

From NWN2 to BG2? No.

lukaszthegreat: probably when they do bg2 in NWN2 engine.
I would only approve of it if they keep the loot. I'm not letting anyone touch my dear Carsomyr +6
Will need to play this one someday, always want to see the BG campaign using the 3.X rules (I remember another project trying to port the IE games inside Icewind Dale 2, which uses the 3.0 rules, but I guess they never advanced much)

Great spotlight!
Just interesting — maybe it's possible in game shelf, next to download links, create another tab with spotlighted mods? For example — currently I don't have time to play, but will come back to NWN2 once I have more free time, and by that time I'll definitely loose links to this mod.

Sure I can, but that's just a matter of convenience to have links right in game card

And it's even nicer for people who missed the announcement (or didn't care at the time), and simply don't know the topic -- or the mod -- even exists.

Games -- especially some good old games -- and their best mods go hand-in-hand, and it would be nice if the gamecards reflected that.

Not a fan of mods....until now. My biggest complaint about BG 1 and 2 was I just never thought the looks aged as well as the rest of the game. Now, as I normally don't like mods I'm not used to using them so downloading this and getting it installed could be interesting.

Keep and eye on the news. If you hear about any large explosions in Northern Michigan the odds are I fucked up trying to do this. :P
It's awesome, but I have a little question. Does this mod include the original voices? It seems that you have to read a lot.
OT
I was looking through all my NWN stuff while checking this out. Does anyone else have that SUPER groovy 'disc sheath' that BioWare sent out to owners of the NWN1 complete? Yes, it's ultimately just a piece of glossy construction paper but it just looks so cool I actually find myself showing it to people. They usually tell me to piss off but hey, not everyone can be as sophisticated as I. :D
