Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Bards sing tales of heroes from ages past, but never have the Forgotten Realms so desperately needed a champion. Years have passed since the war between Luskan and Neverwinter, almost enough time for the wounds of war to heal. But the brief peace the Realms have known may be at an end. Tension growing between the mighty city-states means the Sword Coast again teeters on the edge of open war. Unnoticed, a greater danger stalks the City of Skilled Hands. Unbeknownst to the denizens of the North, deep in the Mere of Dead Men, dark forces from across the Realms have been rallied under the banner of a legendary evil. If left unchallenged, all of the North is doomed to fall under its power.

Even in this darkest hour, hope remains. A mysterious relic is borne to Neverwinter in the hands of a lone hero so that its secrets may be unlocked - secrets that carry the fate of all the North. So begins an epic tale of shattered alliances, noble acts and dark deeds to be told across the Realms for generations to come.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very pleasing, 2 Jul 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I found this game very enjoyable and suffered very few glitches, apart form the fact the game occasionally decides to crash in cut scenes that flow between acts. So long as you save often, this really isn't mu of a problem. My other main peeve is that the game does not grow progressively harder, instead the difficult varies constantly. Battling a red dragon is far harder than the end boss encounter, or the end dungeon for that matter.

I had no problem running this on the highest settings and my pc is nothing new (if you have issues with the higher settings, make sure everything is running fine, coz it might not be (as people I've talked about this with have often discovered)).

Many core and prestige classes are present and a dedicated path for both good and the more evil characters for much of the game. These different paths also add different plot points and adventures, making it worthy of replaying. A better system for creating your own items (which I found simple and fun) which I spent alot of time playing about with to create some odd, if powerful items for my characters to use.

All your henchmen are now controllable and you get to gain and lose favour with them (try to gain it though, you'll see why later).

Also, you get your own keep to repair, strengthen and a army to raise (try getting more than 750 men coz that's my record so far!), though the storyline tends to become more linear when you get the keep, the game is alot of fun.

The true down side is the poor ending, it's nothing special in any way, in fact I felt it more of an anticlimax.

The game still deserves 5 stars though, mostly for the fact it has so much playability and a number of subplots and side quests to undertake that oyu may need to play the game several times over to make the most of them.

The toolset is far to over complicated this time though, I struggled for a while with the one in NWN1, but this time I cant get it to do anything at all, not even move around the area you're building in! Sadly this section of the game package makes me drop it a star. A shame really coz the toolset from what I've seen from downloaded modules is quite impressive.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Game, Flamin awful camera control 'tho!, 23 April 2007
By R. Jones "Cleric" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
As a fan of the original NWN, and baldurs gate icewind dale etc... i have been equally impressed by the game. It's nothing new, but hey, if i wanted something original i sure as hell wouldn't be playing D&D Rpg games now would i??
The graphics such as spell effects are often spectacular and enjoyable to watch, although i would recommend a high spec pc to play this game on in order to get the full effect.

There are some major worries with the game, mainly the camera. With no exagerration, the camera is absoloutely awful! despite the several camera options top down, driving camera etc.. not a single one of them allows you to flawlessly follow your character and the action. Often i run into fights long before i see the danger coming, as the camera has an awful tendency to "look backwards" as it were instead of showing you whats ahead of you. And after lengthy load times often the first thing you will see is a blank wall or the road at your feet!
Also the AI of your party members is not incredibly helpful, and requires many hours of tweaking before they finally react to situations in a helpful manner.

This aside, the game itself provides hours of entertainment, with an engrossing (if unoriginal) storyline, fantastic (but cliched) characters, and fantastic gameplay.
All i can say is hey - if you like rpgs you'll love this one - if you don't - this isn't about to change your mind!

Cheers!

5.0 out of 5 stars Only fault is there's so much, 13 Nov 2007
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
I was absolutely baffled to see so many bad reviews on here. I think the best indication of how seriously to take them is who wrote them and what they beef about. You can't huff about graphics if your card and machine is nearly two years old.

This game is a great deal of fun in the traditional sense of lots of interesting bad guys to biff. But more importantly to me you're going to get a lot of story, and quite a few characters. This is crucial in my opinion as it turns a minimum-wage grinding task into an ADVENTURE. You're going to see plenty of delicious bad people, and annoying good people and at least one nutcase.

One other thing you'll notice is how many complicating factors there are. Firstly, if you want to you can make your own magical items. I mean, custom tailor them to suit you, provided you have the right skills and the right bits and bobs (you can't forge a ring of power from old cheerios).

Secondly, along the way you'll find yourself forging alliances with external groups, and building your own castle. A nice touch.

Thirdly, and most crucially, you will find yourself forging semi-realistic friendships with your companions. These friendships make real demands on you and also bring real benefits.

Overall, I can't recommend any other rpg in the last five years as highly. Buy it. Buy it right now.
