Neverwinter Nights for PS4

I’m filling in the gaps in my PS4 collection. Next up is Neverwinter Nights. I’ve played Baldur’s Gate II on PS4 in 2021 and 2022 and part I before that. I’m currently playing Planescape: Torment on and off. To make the set complete, I also got a copy of Neverwinter Nights for the PS4. I like to get physical and turn to the physical manual and maps of the original releases when I play these remakes. That is going to be no problem for Neverwinter Nights with the gigantic Collector’s Edition on hand.

I wonder if I will like this remake though. Or even if I’m going to like trying to play the game nowadays. Although I never got very far into the game back in the day, I remember it being quite clunky with the controls of this early 3D attempt and wonder if that is more streamlined now. When I walk around in the starting area, I can already see that I’ll be having problems reading the tiny text or the bigger text due to horrible contrast. Such a shame. They could have easily facilitated more flexibility with the ways that things are being displayed. When I decide to replay this game, I’ll have to have a good look at how I want to play this. I’m guessing that playability is already greatly enhanced with all sorts of mods for the original version, or maybe even for the Enhanced version for PC.
