    Neverwinter Nights 2!!!

    Yeah, but the Obsidian forums are there anyway. Tons of stickies and a number of them on hardware/graphics settings as you can imagine. Just click on forums and then go to the Neverwinter Nights 2 forums.

    Familiars - Advantage or Disadvantage?

    I have played 2 wizards since 1e and one had a familiar and the other didn't. Though there are definite roleplaying opportunities and some neat skill opportunities, as Michael Silverbane so amply stated, the risk isn't worth it.

    Neverwinter Nights 2!!!

    Seems a lot of people will turn off the various shadow options but keep evrything else on high for decent frame rates.

    Do you care if it is a premade adventure?

    Adventure plot and presentation are far more important to me than whether or not it is premade or DM made. If the DM can present said adventure in a skillful way and I am having fun then so be it. The bottom line for me is having fun.

    Boombox (for a lack of a more original title)

    For Christmas my son has asked for a boombox type CD player for his room that also has AM/FM radio. The thing is those things can be really cheaply made when it comes to the lazer that transcribes the music from CD to speakers. Far, far, far too many die an early death. So... 1. Can you...

    RPG DriveThrough Question

    Okay, that helps a lot. Will Drive-Thru RPG list the PDFs that have one or the other up front? I've attempted to access their website but it has been down, probably due to their merge with RPGNow.

    Neverwinter Nights 2!!!

    As I have read it over the past few years, game makers are at the mercy of game publishers because the publishers hold the purse strings and whoever has the money has the final say. Troika was forced by Atari to release that mess called The Temple of Elemental Evil long before it was ready...

    Neverwinter Nights 2!!!

    Here is the bottom line: Wait for the Patch. You just know there will be a need for a patch. Unfortunately that is the way it works these days. By the way, will my machine be okay? 2 Gigs of RAM, Athlon 64 3200+ CPU, and an X800 GTO 256mb card with DDR3 RAM. It is the card I am most...

    Midnight rpg movie

    My thoughts exactly. So many movies go this way, and fantasy ones seem to lead the pack.

    Clerics changing dieties

    I think he needs to do atonement NOW because even though he hasn't acted out his thoughts behavior wise he, nevertheless, has carried them out in his heart and soul. Look at it this way, for a cleric to gain spells they must meditate/pray which is the link to their diety. Unlike Arcane spells...

    Fey as powers that be

    I think the best description of Fey as powers that be - extremey dangerous powers with a truly other/alien worldliness - is found in Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files series. He really explores this in the 4th book Summer Knight. There is great material for a DM's inspiration and I haven't...

    Do you play more than one character at a time?

    I have played with 2 characters but only because the group was too small for 1 PC per player. It all had to do with survival. However, my choice is to play one and one only and luckily this has been the morm for the past 4 years.

    I take it, then, that they are still using DRM?

    RPG DriveThrough Question

    Sorry if this subject doesn't belong here; I wasn't even sure what category to name it so I went with Apps. Anyway, I have nevere downloaded or ordered PDF's before and RPG Drivethrough has a number of modules, etc. that I want to include in my campaign. However, I have heard some serious...

    Neverwinter Nights 2!!!

    I'm looking forward to NWN2, but I am goiung to hold off getting it until I read gamer's reports/reviews such as Thanee, mmu1, and the rest of the gang here. i trust what you have to say far more than any gaming magazine or website.

    Gothic 1 and 2: Anyone Play them?

    Hey, mmu1,nice post. I thought this thread was dead. I am really leaning very close to purchasing. The only sticking point I have is the whole Starforce thing: Does it or does it not contain said copy protection? As I posted before, I get both "yes" and "no" answers to this. The latest I...

    Do players really care for the campaign setting?

    I checked the I don't care as long as I am having fun, BUT of the campaign worlds I have played in Greyhawk and Wilderlands are my very favorites and prefer them over others.

    Halloween costume help!

    I love these questions! Anyway, is there a certain "dress code" for this party, i.e., it must look good; no hand me downs? Or are you putting pressure on yourself? Anyway, Halloween make-up is cheap and with a few clothes items from your closet, etc. you can do really well. For example, I...
