Re: nwn 2!
I've played through the original NWN twice. Once as a druid and once as a wizard/rogue. I thought the wizard/rogue class was too easy. Take the monk people! Even the final fight was easy. The hardest boss was the evil cleric Dester(?) at the end of the first chapter.
I hope NWN2 has a more rewarding options than the first. You could make 'evil' decisions in the first game but it really didn't mean too much. What if I did want to join up with Airbeth and destroy Neverwinter? It would have been fun. I know thats a lot of additional programming but...
I am super excited about this game...as I've already posted twice. :)

Re: nwn 2!
*sigh*
My current PC barely runs NWN 1 on the lower settings. In order to run NWN 2, I will have to buy a brand new PC. I think the only components I'll be able to keep are my sound card and case (and well, network card, of course). Everything else will have to be exchanged. And THAT'S a pretty penny that I simply don't have.
*double sigh*Similes are like metaphors.

Re: nwn 2!
For me the game was for some reason the easiest with a sorcerer. Dunno why... maybe the sheer blasting power? And that was even before I discovered the lure of metamagic. ;D
And then there was the time the game glitched in the third act and suddenly I had 256 fireballs to play with... *glee*Let's Play: Space Empires IV (complete)

Re: nwn 2!
For NWN 1, I played the original campaign, both boxed expansions, and all the premium downloadable modules (all neatly wrapped up in the new diamond edition now) and spent a LOT of time online with some persistant worlds, as well as running a few games online as a DM. It was great.
I am hoping that NWN2 brings back the community to the game, as the original went pretty strong till sometime around mid-2005, now the online presence has dwindled significantly, and I can no longer get my gaming friends to play NWN.

Re: nwn 2!
I'll probably wait a few months until
1. All the showstopper bugs get fixed.
2. Decent mods are created.
3. I get a better computer.
I could probably run it, but the first reason is my biggest reason. I just don't trust Bioware/Obsidian to release a game without a load of bugs coming out the door.

Re: nwn 2!
I plan to get it, but I might wait 'til the holidays in order to figure out my schedule after school and on the weekends.
I look forward to starting out as a tough nobody (well, as much as someone with a PC class can be ;)) in a town of tough people. Also, the official site says that there will be a new class option: the Warlock. I may have to give that a try ;DP.E.A.C.H. Please Evaluate And Critique Honestly

Re: nwn 2!
September, eh? Oh yes, I'll definitely have a new computer by then (my old steam-powered one barely runs Roller Coaster Tycoon 3).
It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.

Re: nwn 2!
They best make the Forgotten Realms elves the right height for a change. Really bugs me how they're always portrayed as the standard short elves... when they're not.

Oh yeah, and I am SO getting this when it comes out. I'm psyched--especially since some of the writers were the ones that worked on Planescape: Torment.
And I might even try my hand at module building (though I really have no skill scripting/programming so I don't know if I'll be able to pick it up or not. I never quite got the knack of it with the first NWN, but the toolset's supposed to be more user-friendly this time around).

It's a direct quote from the NwN2 community manager that works for Obsidian Entertainment.

Re: nwn 2!
Besides, hopefully with that added amount of time they can get the bugs out of it, unlike what happened in KOTOR2 (which in my opinion would've been a great game....if it were finished)

Re: nwn 2!
Does anyone know if NWN2 will still be top-down 3/4 view? Or will they finally add in the First-person perspective (like so many mods did for NWN1)?
I have seen cut-scenes go to FP, but not sure if actual game play is stuck with 3/4 view.

It is my preeeecioooous, seriously, i just replayed NWN1, NWN HOU, Witches Wake, Shadow Guard and Kingmaker, and am almost finished act 1 of SOU, This has to be the second or third time i have finished these, and it is not uncommon to see over 5 or 6 highest lv prestige class characters in my files :P My best would be my ranger/rangerprestiege, she fires 4 arrows a turn[without rapid shot], does hellish damage and absolutly rules this world.

Re: nwn 2!
I asked the guys at EB, and they said the day they were getting the game in was September 19th. Their words, not mine, so reader beware. I don't really have anything to back it up.
Also, the date might vary from store to store.

Re: nwn 2!
My GPA was slipping at the end of last year, and this game is going to absolutely devastate it.
What I want is some differentiation (sp?) between types of clerics, like they had in IWD2 and BG2. In NWN you just picked your domains, any you wanted from the list, and typed in your deity. This really disapointed me. I love clerics, but they made them so generic. Maybe that will be bette this time.Puritan Humor

Re: nwn 2!
If you free up camera control in NWN1 you can go into FP view if you feel like it.
I personally will likely preorder this game(which I never bother doing)
I actually popped HotU in this weekend and played through acts two and three again...there may be nothing more fun than the battle in the Seer's camp at the end of act two directing all the troops rocks
Ended up with a dwarven fighter weapon master that dual weilded longswords...seems like almost every hit was a critical...I didnt even end up using a heal pot when I fought Mephisopales at the end (ok ok so I cheated and created a one screen mod where I can drop items and make myself awesome gear...resting gets annoying the 18th time through the game. ;D
(its also fun to be able to cast, hammer of the gods and dragon knight unlimited times per day as a melee toon)

Re: nwn 2!
Decided that this topic needed some fresh meat added to it. They have released what the Races, Classes, and Prestige Classes are going to look like.
I was just wondering if anyone had any builds in mind.
I'm debating whether or not I want to go with an Aasimar, or Half-Elf Fighter/Paladin/Divine Champion. What do you guys and girls think?Proud Member of the Roy Fanclub

Re: nwn 2!
Races: I see they have Sun Elves with a bonus to Int. So... Sun Elf Wizard. If the rest system is anything like NWN, I shall be a god among mortals after a few levels.
Otherwise, I'll also wait a fair while to let other people test the game for me. Given that it's not Bioware making this game but Obsidian Entertainment, I have strong reservations about the main campaign being worth playing - not because of any inherent lack of skill on Obsidian's part, but because Kotor II showed that they're willing to buckle under pressure, slap together a crappy ending and ship the product before it's done. I hope that doesn't come up with NWN2, but I'll wait to find out from others.
