But for the actual game, a bit underwhelmed thus far. Only played a few hours but definitely not the quality the full game was. This ain't no Throne of Bhaal expansion. I think Bioware really hyped this thing up far too much. Ah well, it's still nice playing new content. |
are you kidding me? its better than original game.. jesus christ.. original game had it moment but it was more "boring little quest.. till you get bit part.. 10 mins after you back to boring quests for hour.. then good part for 10 mins.. that how it was .. now its only big part.. "
some zones are so epic that there was nothing to match it in origins..
10/10

To be honest, most of my first 5 hours were running around the Keep and that city doing those ass boring quests. And, I did just finally run into something pretty cool when I ventured out...
 Spoiler: | The double dragon fight in the Woods quest was pretty nice. |
So it's starting to get a bit interesting now.

I finished it as well. 12 hours and change. I played a pretty gimped party on nightmare, and I also only died once at the end. In fact, no on even wen down till the very end. (One gimped mage setup). I started at level 18.
Is it just me, or did this game get real easy like?
Story was ok, I liked it a lot. BUT!
The new spells and abilities? They're complete BS. Level 20 + so you can't replay your main campaign with it (fail). Well, I am disappointed in the RPG system. It's simply put no DnD, and that's a bad thing.

Awesome expansion.
Fighting darkspawn has become so easy though you could take on legions of em armed with a rolled up newspaper.

Just one short question thingy.
Why are you so hostile about this matter? I am not crying, I am thankful that there are companies out there, who *dare* make slightly complex games still.

Personally, I didn't like NWN2 either, and it ran like shit. And it wasn't made by Bioware, it was made by Obsidian.

cuz everyone makes nwn2 somekind supergame.. when it wasnt.. it wasnt even anything close to nvm1 which was good.. what was exactly complex in nvm? apart choosing which useless skill to take..
i swear i attempted that game so many times.. after 20 patches.. after 3 expansion.. and help me.. but that game ran so badly it was hard to believe.. did i said it was ugly?
stalker had nothing on how crappy that game ran

I could run NWN2 on a two years old PC (that time) and it ran reasonably well. You just had to tweak shadows and stay away from aa and water enhacing options. Other that that, everything could be checked. I'm not a huge fan of dnd, i actually like DA's systems more. It may offer less options, but at least the character advancement is fun and all classes present cool gameplay options, whereas in dnd playing a mage is cool, but playing a fighter or even a rogue is as boring as it gets (miles behind da).
On the other hand though, NWN2 was vastly superior to NWN1 as an RPG game. Not as a modding platform, mind You, just as an RPG game (single-player story). NWN1 campaign was a glorified diablo clone with idiotically boring and uninspired characters. I still can't believe it when people write that Aribeth was deep. Lol. NWN2 at least offered You some characters You could remember and some plot-twists here and there.
And then came MotB and blew everything away showing that what happened in Infinity Engine's times could still be done with a DnD game.
All in all, NWN2 with all expansions >>>> NWN1 with all expansions, on almost all levels. The only thing nwn1 was better at was modding, and that's only because it was mind-blowingly easy and looked like LEGO.
To each his own though.

I agree, nwn2 was very poorly optimized, but MotB was a story not seen since PS:T days. Now those were cool characters and a good story, and a very good ending.

Hm... I never played nwn2, I played a little nvn1 and it bored me to hell (and I am BG/PT fan). Should I play nwn2? Do I need to complete nwn2 to play MotB? Or maybe just grab MotB and play that one?

You can just grab MoTB. I actually played both expansions before playing NWN1. Imo the expasions are way more fun than the original nwn 1 and 2.

About whole DLC item import issue. At official board, it was discovered by usres why some import, and some don't.
Basically, every mod has 2 set of folders: Core and Module. If item is placed in Core, it will function everywhere (in custom campaign, for example), but if placed in Module folder, it will only function in campaign that mod it intended to. Stone Prisoner and Return of Ostagar use Core folder for items, so they can be used everywhere, while Warden Keep and all DLC promotional items use Module folder, and thus only work in main campaign.
Also, even in base game there are some items that go in Module folder, and they don't get imported, like Morrigan robes, or similar companion only items.

Mechanic wise, NWN2 is much closer to BG/PT games then NWN1. You actually have party, and can control everyone. Of course, it's based on 3.5e DnD rule set, and maybe main NWN2 campaign is not so deep like in BG (or PT), but that's subjective matter.
