Thx for the link. Downloading now.. I never got to try NWN. I played Baldur's Gate and Plancescape back in the '90s but after 2000 I mostly played online games, and I started University in 2001, so didn't play that much until 2005 tbh. This is a great offer for me, and now I know what to do this weekend!

Thanks for the heads up. Thought I already had it on GOG, but after looking just now I don't. The Neverwinter series, along with the Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale series, I have purchased each at least 3 times. Something would always happen to the discs. Finally purchased the BG: EE, BG 2: EE, Icewind Dale: EE on Steam. Grabbed Neverwinter Nights 2 complete and Icewind Dale 2 from GOG a while ago.
Hoping this will be the last time I need to purchase these since I can no longer lose the discs. I will find a way to lose my account information I imagine... Either way, they're all well worth it to me.
I have mixed feelings about the giveaway... on one hand it pisses me off to see they throw at anyone something I've paid for (not serious ofc) on the other, it is a great way to spread the DRM-free way and as Torval said above, you still get an additional key to gift away if you already have the game, which is a very nice move. (no extra word on NWN itself, it is a must-check, and if you haven't played it so far, now there's really no excuse anymore to pass on it )
The winter sale and the xp-rewards are a nice selection too (especially Shadowrun), there's the full Dragon Age for around 7 bucks, the two KoTORs for 4 bucks each (or $2.5 if you buy other oldie SW games with them), GOTY Witcher 3 for $30-something... and VtM: Bloodlines for $5 (just to cite my favourites )

i usually dont like point and click games but thanks for the tip. GoG is a great platform for getting DRM free games. I would buy from them any day compared to DRM-enforcing platforms.
EDIT: icewind dale is like 4 bucks, i've always wanted to play it. But again... too bad its mouse based.
I still have the original disks somewhere but I never had all the expansions. This was a great way to get it all on my HD and start playing it again.
Thanks for the heads up.

It's remarkeable how deep mechanics and a good story can get you over dated graphics. This really doesn't happen too often to me.
