Pros

Interesting party conversations; overland map; some good art design; great new monster models.
Turns Neverwinter Nights 2 into an oldschool RPG, Overland map reintroduces a sense of exploration, Campaign is well suited for online multiplayer.

Cons

Boringly generic adventure; dull dungeons; random encounters need to be tuned; pointless death system.
Interface doesnt work well with this style of RPG, Flat story loaded with mostly dull quests, The overland map needs some serious tweaking, Mostly brutal voice acting.

Obsidian Entertainment attempts to turn back the clock with Storm of Zehir, a Neverwinter Nights 2 expansion that tries hard to emulate the seminal single-player role-playing game Baldurs Gate. But even though nostalgia makes this notion appealing,...

What do you want your role-playing game to be? It's a subject that I've thought about a lot recently. While I love RPGs, the genre can drive me batty. Many push you through a story with a metaphorical Spear +3 at your back -- and that's fine...

Add-ons muss nicht automatisch der Geruch von billig zusammengeklöppeltem Stückwerk anhaften. Hätte Obsidian die Klasse von Erweiterungen wie Schatten von Undernzit erreicht, wäre ich glücklich. So bleibt eine Reise, die...
