Okay, I haven't looked at this thread yet, and so I clicked on it and skipped to the last page.  There I found only the post directly previous to my own.

I don't know the context, but boy is that a scary concept.

I wasn't free until 11 last night. Maybe some other time.

I didn't even notice this until today. I have to admit, though, that I'm somewhat absorbed into DAoC at the moment, and I doubt I'll be pulling myself away anytime soon.

I've got .Hack which is better at being a MMORPG then DAoC and everquest.

Have you ever played Everquest? Or are you talking out your ear?

Heh, heh. That is very funny. Talking out his ear. We would assume he does regularly. But I'm going to go with the 'you're wrong Spriggan' text.

Ok. So i should never be given money. I went into a games shop to check on the price of DAOC, and ended up walking out with NWN.

Ok. Nice game so far. The main quest is boring though. Maybe playing an evil character would make it more bearable.

If you want to do this... i dunno. Let me know :) I shall be more than happy to run around punching stuff while everyone else RPs.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

We have a replacement computer as of today, but it's an office cast off from my father-in-law's business, so I'm not sure if it's NWN capable yet.

Oh, and Entropy, it gets a little better as you go. THe first set of quests set in Neverwinter is a little dull, but once you've captured the four beasts it gets a little better. I felt that Chaotic Good was the best alignment to play, as you could bend the rules enough to do some breaking and entering, but you still had to use skills to get some things done instead of just killing everyone.

The strength of NWN is not in its story or in its engine, but in its variability. Whenever I get bored with the games I have, or I just need a break, I download a NWN mod and play--brand new game, all for free. I just found a Ravenloft mod I'm excited to try.

Yeah, the official campaign isn't so hot.  The one in the expansion is great fun however, as is the Witch's Wake which you can get free from the NWN site.

Also, check out the Hall of Fame here:  http://nwvault.ign.com/index2.shtml

Great stuff!  They have tons of modules and reviews for each.  I've really enjoyed the mods I got from here!

You really thought so? Witch's Wake annoyed me to no end. There are a number of fairly decent adventures though, and I've enjoyed most of the expansion ones. THe Paladin one (can't remember what it's called) had a predictable end, but really made you do a lot of searching. I can't remember the titles of the others, maybe I'll get around to looking it up on my backup data.

Ha so my laptop run NWN and all I have to say is that it's realy sad when a free adventure designed by Bioware (witches wake) is more fun and a better designed game then the one that came with the game.  ::)

I still can't see what the appeal of that story was. Talk about linear rail roading. And all that dialog. I don't play to stop and read eight pages of material every thirty seconds. That's what i read books for.

I'm not saying it's the best mod ever, just that it's better then the original.
