So, sticking to the source material as closely as possibly is not desired? Trolls and ogres (again, from what I've seen of pre-release screens) look just like the MM illustrations, as does the red dragon.

nope they aren't, i have all the 3.X book and they still look like elves, not like those in the game :angry: PS: Todd Lockwood makes nice pictures <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lockwood makes good dragons. I don't like much else he does. I would rather WotC had Sam Wood do the race designs for the PHB.

i know, i just had to say that somewhere, was not really connected to what i quoted. How the heck should i fit in my role, if i think the char is ugly !? <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Blame WotC for that. All of the images of the elves that I've seen thus far (game hasn't arrived yet) look like Obsidian took Todd Lockwood's illustrations straight out of the PHB and gave them three dimensional form. Like it or not, that is how 3.x D&D elves look.

That's what I'm getting at. If availability to porn (of the non-snuff variety) actually decreases rape, then the prevailing theories as to what drives rape need to be revised significantly.

I thought that the prevailing opinion regarding rape was that it was a crime of violence (driven by a need to hurt) rather than a crime of lust.

Gameplay, a compelling story, good (and equal) rules implementation, and few big bugs. Everything else is icing on the cake.

It is? Where? Everyone I have spoken to says that it won't arrive until tomorrow. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> in the stores friend, in the stores. some people already had their first heartattack <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ah. I stand corrected, then. I know EB won't have it until tomorrow. Apologies for stating that it wasn't out in the US yet.

Odd how he could tell me buggies were not that bad and fixed etc. and now everybody complains about unworkable copies; massive huge bugamounts and there is a patch on day #1... PS. How is it with the DM Client? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Piss off, troll. You know as well as I do that the game isn't out in the US.

No, because for months he's attacked everything about NWN2 and gone after Sawyer a few times ('course, Josh went right back after him). He stated months ago that he wasn't getting the game, wasn't interested in it, so that means he's just here to expunge some adolescent rage at his disappointment in KotOR2. That makes him a troll in my book.

So....you're just a troll, then? Glad we have that out of the way.

Players Even some who don't care Quake 4 has 1.1x the poly's of Doom3 and rather play Wolfenstein 3D (cfr. me) So the game is now without PC... eh... Sry... but this is part of the game. One important part too; since you are FORCED to stare at it during the ENTIRE GAME... :'( <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why the hell do you even care? You've done nothing for months except attack Sawyer and NWN2. Hell, didn't you say you weren't even buying it?

it seems NWN2 can't even do what NWN1 could <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quoted from the same thread at the Bio boards: I think the dude has a very good point, and some of you doomsayers need to lighten up.

There was some horror game that I played for the PS1, Clocktower or something like that. The bad guy (who had giant scissors) would show up randomly while you played, and you had to escape. Frightening stuff.

Yeah, on a forum not owned by either the developer or publisher.

When we get a real NWN2 forum here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not going to happen, looks like.

that still requires an attack roll, right? taks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Touch attack. Normal AC rules don't apply, though dodge bonuses and deflection bonuses do.

Forgot to mention the ability to wear Heavy Armor

3.x Clerics need nothing extra. Nothing.

I really like the little notes that designate where NWN2 differs from the official D&D rules. That's something that NWN1 really needed to do, IMO. They have Track in the game! Woot! Thank you, Obsidian!

Looks just like Todd Lockwood's illustrations from the PHB and DMG to me.

Chaotic evil creatures have abandoned reason through their rampant murdering habits and thus, have abandoned any claim to moral personhood. Kant pwnz D&D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Woot! Go Kant!

Good ol' King Volourn. *sigh* Those were the days.

I enjoyed it (as did my wife, who doesn't play games). Seems to me that for all the various scenarios included in the official campaign, the OC must take at least 30 hours to complete.
