Great day for the NWN2 mod Community.
Hopefully people will make the transition from NWN1 who didnt join us before!
Very true... I just have a problem with those huge polygons from the first now that I play nwn2 =P
NWN1 was still a great game! I put a lot of hours into it back in the day.
I've had a copy of Neverwinter Nights 2 signed by Obsidian dev team for a couple months now. /brag
I haven't played it, though. Maybe I'll try it out this weekend.

I'm not one of those people. I'd much rather champion a developer who tries new and interesting things but sometimes fails, rather than simply going along with a developer who clones ideas and succeeds. But something just seems to be wrong with Obsidian. They usually come up with good ideas, but can they actually develop games? Can they finish a project on time and without a plethora of bugs? Recent evidence suggests that the answer to these questions is "no," and Storm of Zehir, their latest expansion pack for Neverwinter Nights 2, is at best a black eye for them."
Gotta love Neverwinter!!
