Anybody else get the game? We (tess & I) have been playing it for about a week and have found it fun.....in the short term! What does everyone else think? Or do ya all hate RPG's? |
||||||||

Lol, I saw this and thought "wow, someone else here actually plays RPGS" then I realised it was you :D Oh well... :p |

i love rpgs...infact will be on the path to making my own, in the years to come. i havent' heard of this game, but i'm a console gammer myself, heh, so that means i mostly dig the FF's. |

You havern't heard of it? O.O 5 years in the making and one of the most hyped ROG's in years, and from the makers of Bladurs Gate 1 & 2 (Bioware). Alrthough if you are more of a console gamer I guess that explains it.. |

I love Ultima 7 and 8. Does that count? |
||||||||

I have it, and love it. It is definately the best game Bioware has put out for the PC, IMO. RPG's are my favorite type of games, for any platform! if u ever wanna chat about them let me know :) |

BG2 was far superior, it was far more interesting than NWN.. maybe i'm just biased as I have played BG2 several hundred times now :D |
||||||||
|
|

|

Well, I think that with the even more simplified v3 D&D rules, along with the far superior graphics, make it much more enjoyable for initiates to the Forgotten Realms. BG2 has a slightly better storyline and equal character depth, IMO, so I'd say its just a matter of opinion which is better. :) |

btw, have you played Icewind Dale? I have it and the expansion and liked it too, but since almost every area is frozen the scenary becomes pretty boring.. still a good game tho. |

I do like NWN a lot, but there are 5 chapters and I am on chapter 3 (just started) and I am already level 20 and you cannot go above that so my character suddenly feels very stagnant! Coz I chose a Ranger, I cannot progress anymore so I kinda wish I'd chosen a Mage so I could still progress in spells! **Sigh** Oh weeelllll......!!! |

I love IWD but Tess wasn't too fond as it is more cobat driven than Story - but I'll let her explain it more fully...... Sorry Tess 8op |

Yeah, I haven't finished it yet, it just didn't grip me as much as BG2, I'm far happier messing around adding little mods into BG2 and replaying it :D IWD was too much of a dungeon crawl for my taste, and your charactor was no-one, and there were no joinable NPC's. I plan to finish it, and get IWD2 when it is FINALLY released, but overall they just aren't as enjoyable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah I feel the same as you, and I'll definately check out IWD2 because I think it will probably have most of the problems from the original remedied :) |

http://feedback.blackisle.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&da Check this plac out: ysprune=&forumid=34 It should fill you in on IWD, I'm a regular at these MB's and the people of BIS who are making the game frequent the board, so any question you want to ask about the game you can have answered ;) It's been in development for ages, they seem to have it pretty smooth now, ti should go Gold pretty soon :) |

just scanning the thread... is this game based on the forgotten realms books? (which wouldn't surprise me). I've played a few of the old dos ad&d versions. Isn't baulder's gate ad&d for 2000? beefed up gfx, story, items, mainly a tek face-lift? I was more into dragon lance than forgotten realms, and didnt' really read much of those. A few were great, but i lost interest (this was years ago, when i was 15 or so [20 now]). |

cool site, good info, thx. :D |

Not really on the books... It's based around the D&D rules whioch the books stem from and some charactors and places from the books are mentioned, the City of Neverwinter is from the books, but the story is a separate cxreation by the game comopany. |

sorry, i should have said, uses the forgotten realms "universe." not story. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, they (the games) take place in locations in the forgotten realms, that use ad&d rules (although simplified so they are easier to understand.) I was never really a huge fan of the books, but I love the games. :) |
