Product DescriptionNeverwinter Nights 2 (NWN2) is a computer role-playing game set in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms, one of the popular campaign settings of Dungeons and Dragons. It takes the player from the tiniest of villages into a sweeping tale of danger and war, chronicling their rise from a peasant to a full-fledged hero of the Realms, defending it against one of the greatest threats of the age. Build a character that suits your style of play - good or evil, chaotic or lawful, with any number of skills, feats and professions available at the click of a button. Whether lobbing fireballs and researching forgotten spells as a powerful Wizard, hacking a trail through legions of orcs as a Fighter armed only with a battle axe and your courage, or taking on the role of a Rogue that can slip into the shadows at a moment's notice, the choice is yours. Choose your alignment, your allies, your companions, and how you want your character to develop... design the character you want, role-play the way you want, and carry the battle to the enemy.

I recently purchased this game. It's interesting that you can create your entire party - I used one character that I created for a previous run-through of NWN2. That said, I'm not a big fan of the overland map. I like to get immersed in the world and it's tough to do that with the way the overland map works. Mainly, though, I miss the party interactions. I liked Mask of the Betrayer MUCH better, and Dragon Age looks like it is going to be pretty good as well.

A big difference between this expansion and previous NWN environments is the split ... Read More

This is a great update to the NeverWinter Nights series. What make it a great addition is the freedom given to explore anywhere on the map and the fact that one could have a chance encounter with monsters or foes anywhere. You're not led by the nose - you determine a path yourself while the story works around you. I'd rather go to a game reserve than a zoo - its the same concept.
Rating: - disappointing rpg
I was looking forward to this game for some months when I heard about its upcoming release, and I really couldn't have been more disappointed. I had really enjoyed Neverwinter Nights 2 and Mask of the Betrayer, and they were amoung 2 of my favorite rpgs, but this game abandons everything I liked about those games.
My favorite rpgs, have an immersive story with great character depth. I like having NPCs with their own personalities, and I really enjoyed the influence system of NW 2 and especially ... Read More
