[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 1777495, member: 1465"] I have the opportunity to install and play Neverwinter Nights but I am not convinced to take the chance, I tried it once for a couple of days and it didn't hit me... however I have heard many like it a lot and consider it the best RPG for PC around! So try convince me it's a good idea and why, shouldn't be difficult I guess :p I have played Baldur's Gate I & II and Temple of Elemental Evil and quite liked all 3 of them. I like having a long and twisted plot to follow, but I also like to have combats where I can exercise my strategy and my knowledge with the D&D rules :p . I am afraid that NWN may have a very limited plot and be too-much combat oriented, and also I am afraid that if it's real time combat there will be very little space for tactics... I don't want to play a game which keeps my nervous because I have to be fast with the keyboard! Especially because I like playing spellcasters, which I think they are going to be very difficult to play if you don't have time to think what to cast. Furthermore, how is the chance to survive with a wizard/sorcerer in NWN since it's a 1-character game? Another thing that doesn't convince me 100% is the rules: I have read from the website that NWN pretends to use 3.5 official rules, but there's a lot of difference actually, many things are not implemented and there are extra combat options which don't exist in D&D. Are they actually a good thing or not? Finally, I don't have internet connection at home, so I am going to entirely miss the online game. How good is the game going to be when playing solo? BG and ToEE were just fine - actually I have heard they sucked online - but maybe NWN has to be played online to be really fun? [/QUOTE]
