With the exception of perhaps NWN1 OC, Bio's games are generally a vast improvement over their predecessors anyway.

ZOMG, are you serious, Tigranes? You like just totally missed out on EVERYTHING. Good job, sport. ... ... ... On the flip side, does anyone know if there are any consequences of NX1 OC npc cameo appearances or anything based upon the dialogue, the Safiya dialogue concerning , or the conversation with the with the dialogue option? It would be awesome if more of the old skool companions make an appearance.

I don't play sport games. In that case, all you need to do is stay away from EA, and you'll be sorted.

I'm using 4 party members w/ cheats. I don't think you can get 5, and even it you could it wouldn't make sense as two of them are mutually exclusive to the just like from Jade Empire.

It's leaps and bounds above NX OC, mkreku. MotB is to NX1 what HotU was to NWN OC.

Hehe, I wouldn't even consider playing this game if you remotely have and concurrent academic responsibilities. The atmosphere + writing + score = Kiss your day & night time hours goodbye.

It's infinitely better, Bok. Everything about it screams EPIC. I don't blame you for not finishing the original campaign, since quite of few people considered Act I to be drudgery. MotB FTW!1

They may be thoroughly evil, Hades, but their sport games are very good - I'll give them that.

No MotB, Bok?

I only lie when it's funny. You're only funny when you lie.

I saw that the option. Fortunately, I had enough wisdom. It just seemed like a cheap cop-out explanation of why they couldn't hire the original voice actor. BTW folks, invest in Wisdom. This game is chock full of WIS specific dialogs.

Oilers FTW, Kor?

MotB. Still only in Act II, but I can tell this is easily the best game in the series excluding HotU.

Seriously, WTF just happened to voice?! Jesus, what the hell man...that's like totally not cool. In the OC his voice was deep, biting and with an air of superiority. Now he just sounds like Grobnar on crack. Not Good! I'm not sure why they decided to change voice actors, but if you're going to do it, at least replace them with one that sounds pretty similar (e.g. BG1 Jaheira --> BG2 Jaheira) and not like an emasculated Neelix from Star Trek.

Probably because Atari like being $$$ grabbers and want to reap the profits in themselves. Now, I have no problem with this, except that it took them 3 or 4 days or something from release to launch their digital download. Compare that with the superior services of D2D, Steam, or Gamersgate where you can pre-order and download the midnight before general release.

Don't worry, it should work just fine, Alan. It's too bad D2D (or any other third party IIRC) doesn't have the digital download license for MotB.

Best line ever.

The nicest lich I've ever met! This guy's obviously been to finishing school.

Cat fight.

Well now that you have 4 party members, you should do just fine, Tigranes.

Ease your worries, Brothers! 1. ~ 2. DebugMode 1 3. rs ga_party_add("name") 4. DebugMode 0 5. ~ where name = , , , , or .

Yeah! I mean WTF, mate? Also, where's my Ritual of Purification Powers. They were great powers and them no longer being there is also totally not cool.

^What he he said. Plus, Al Gore > YOU.

The sound effects are a helluva lot louder now. I've had to turn the sound effects slider to about a quarter, while keeping voice and music at pretty much max. Oh, and Evard's Black Tentacles is annoyance on par with almost anything else. I even gave that spell the kickout in the OC. But the new REAL portraits + awesome mystical score = much goodness. [Nb. I'm not overly impressed with Safiya's VO though. Gann's and Kaelyn's VO's are pretty good, but Safiya's seems less than desired]

Its official: Magic Circle Against Alignment has got to be the most annoying spell of all time. Every time your party members reshuffle, that annoying jingle and icon pops up. It took me like 10 minutes to figure out what the hell my stupid NPCs were doing to create that jingle. At first I thought it was teh Dove chick's persistent aura or something. After figuring it out, I wiped that sucker out of everyone's spell books!
