A game where "resting" is a quick affair - essentially rutning all of your per-day abilities into per-zone abilities (or even per encounter abilities). One that that made me go "oh, my, how broken" at first: NWN2 does not enforce material components, and you can have a sorcerer with stoneskin as a known spell...This basically means that my "stopping point" is when the stoneskins wear out. It also means I don't have to tote a cleric around becaue no-one takes HP damage(which is good, because at the point I am in-game, I don't have a cleric). At any rate, hitting the "rest" button refills the party's hitpoints anyway. Essentially, my party's hit point totals are irrelevant (or mostly so); it's the amount of damage left on the stoneskin. The game is still quite fun, fairly challenging (I have been TPK'd by what I assume are appropriate-level encounters since I'm not going out of my way to grind XP); but the essential resource-management paradigm of TT D&D is entirely out the window.</blockquote>
