This would be a lot more tempting as a Linux purchase if the Aurora toolset wasn't Windows-only.

Why so long? On Steam they release this game few months ago...
Anyway, game is now on small smale -25%, but for owners of classic Neverwinter Nights is for -50%.

character models need updating also, and increases to textures, I wish companies would go to that effort, would be awesome. Atm the enemies look a bit hilarious and hard to take serious :)

From what I understood, they did some initial tweaks and were planning on enhancing all the things as they go along.

True, from what I understand it will be a gradual process over time until the whole game eventually looks reasonably "Up to Date".
That is part of what's been keeping me away from playing it on steam. It feels like a shame to play through it again now, only to have the entire campaign look 10X better in 6-12 months of time. Right now, I'm eager to see what comes from this quote:
"New character and weapon models for Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition are getting closer! As soon as we’re ready, we’ll be sure to share a few amazing screenshots!"
