I don't know what you're talking about.

Ahh, but sweet Magical Volo, this avenue wasn't actually tested back when we were still intimate. Ultimately, going for the 'let's make a PW!!!!' route was the big downfall. Well, that and getting banned, I guess.

Speaking of which, Shadowfax... For the main storyline, I am currently And for the DB, I am currently Can you give any rough estimates on how far I am both way?

Thats an example of "You just can't win." If you make a game linear, people complain. If you make a game open, people complain. If you make a middle ground, people call it linear. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, more or less. It just brings up the point of player preferences and development priorities. My preference is in interactive storytelling. Oblivion fails in hooking me into the story, while FFX fails in actual game interactivity. Which is why, I guess, Obsidian/Bioware bring up the least awkward compromise in the current industry. Which doesn't mean there isn't lots of room for major improvement.

Me as a player:

This article sums up one of my main gripes with the game relatively well. http://www.gamerdad.com/detail.cfm?itemID=3123

I'm bumping this given how the economic state of Kazakhstan remains an important current topic. http://www.rbcnews.com/free/20060324141922.shtml Groundbreaking!

Since you losers are spamming, here's another question. How many of you actually have experience DMing or playing in a DMed session for NWN1? Thoughts on those?

I'm not even playing Civ4 anymore <_< Stupid HoI2. Hence why I was wondering if there were any reasons if I should pick this one up nevertheless. In any case, a GalCiv2 demo is coming out this week, for those who didn't know.

Additional question: how do you guys feel this game is compared to Civ4? In what ways is it better?

Yeah, some quick detective work found a similar conclusion. Too bad. Looked like a good potential purchase.

Okay, so the game is shipping to North America. Isn't this supposed to be a surprisingly good game? Why aren't you losers talking about it? Any plans on a demo? .... Does it use Starforce?

Well, it bodes better than Morrowind.

I am John Romero!

It's probably based on level. I'm pretty far in the plot, but it's only since I've been lvl 10+ (and not following the storyline at this time) that I've been seeing Dwarven/Elven equipment everywhere.

I haven't really seen any of that yet.

No matter your impressions on the game, for better or worse, some reviews are pretty pathetic.

Nick and me are *considering* DMing again for the Obs crowd. *Considering*.

It's not roleplaying unless you're a pyromaniac.

The last few Dark Brotherhood quests have gotten less interesting (since being a Silencer). A shame, really. I think the highlight of the questline was the manor one.

Wait, are any of you planning on being DMs for NWN2 once it comes out, in terms of setting up sessions for us forumites?

Obsidian dude Erik Novales did a presentation on the NWN2 toolset last week at GDC. Get the powerpoint here https://www.cmpevents.com/sessions/GD/S1628i1.ppt (spotted at NWN2News). There are some pretty cool slides in there. NWN2's toolset functionality is pretty impressive; makes NWN1's look archaic in comparison. I can't wait to start modding. But the game isn't out yet

This one will be hard to judge until we get it in our hands. First-person melee is one tough duck.

I would put it in the 60's or 70's, which is a step up from Morrowind's single digits <_<

Haha, I would throw this game into a ditch right this instant if NWN2 was released
