How many games that old are still played as much and are still supported?Even without an internet connection at home, you probably can find a friend able to download some of the amazing fan-created contents and burn them on a CD for you. There are many great modules that can be played solo, that can take dozens of hours to complete, extending the gameplay.I can't talk about the official campaigns, since I've only played the intro of the first one, but I've played about a dozen modules solo and had a blast. Like Morrus said, in solo play, you can pause at any and all the time. For a 1st-level spellcaster, I recommand choosing a familiar that can fight and taking the summon creatures spells (which last 24h in NWN), that way you won't be on the front-line all the time.The rules are pretty much 3.0E, with a few modifications. Of course, anything related to the Z-axis (climb, jump, etc) and teleports are unavailable. There are exceptions in some fan-created modules, though.Multiplaying (wether on-line or not) adds some excitement to the game. I didn't know what I was missing until I started playing on EN World's Persistent World (PW). For me, it has lost some of its strategic side (by not being to pause), but it has gained on the RPing and excitement side. A good trade-off, IMHO.With the platinum edition out, you're getting a good price for it too. There are some compatibility issues with the older versions which will be fixed soon, but since you don't plan on playing on the Net, that shouldn't be a problem for you.</blockquote>
