    Derek French from Bioware had a few words to say about the release date of Neverwinter Nights. Thanks to the folks at Neverwinter Vault for sharing this tidbit.

    Sorry, but the truth is that retails stores can publish and chance any release date they want. They simply don't know, short of when the boxes of games show up at the receiving door. There is still no release date for Neverwinter Nights at this time. Any dates you see are fabrications of the stores. Heck, they have to print SOMETHING.

    We are not as restricted by our publisher as other development houses. While some publishers can hold a development house hostage by witholding funding, we have no such problems with Interplay. We won't release a game for publishing until we are satisfied that it is bug free. While we are mindful of sales numbers and timeframes, we won't trade off cash for quality.

    And as a side note: most initial CD duplication runs are in the range of 10,000 to 100,000 copies, depending on the nature of the game, plus the number of CDs in each copy.

    That being said, we are still targetting a winter release for Neverwinter Nights. (A "winter" for "Neverwinter"... irony?)
