Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer Interview

WarCry brings news that while fansite NWN2 Worlds has shut down, they were able to score a Mask of the Betrayer interview shortly before the closing. The interview apparently offered quite a few answers about the expansion from Obsidian’s Robert McGinnis, Rich Taylor, Nathaniel Chapman, and Kevin Saunders, but now only a two-question snippet at WarCry is publically available:

8. What love for the DM client do you foresee in the short and long term future?

In the short term, the DM client will be getting a number of bug fixes as well as the overhaul of the party bar that has been needed for some time. Already fixed are things like the chooser/creator not becoming empty if you change resolutions, dead players no longer disappear from the chooser, chooser buttons no longer require a double click to activate, players no longer see the floating text over the position of a DM that is supposed to be hidden, some of the console commands have been hooked back up, among other things.

In the long run, most if not all of the old DM console commands will be hooked back into the game as well as a number of other fixes targeted directly for DMs.

9. Is fixing multiplayer-problems of the campaign on your priority list?

With the 1.07 update, we are giving multiplayer more focus than in previous patches. We realize there are some big issues with multiplayer, and that is a weakness of the game, but it will take some time to get all the fixes in.
